Everything a foundation student needs to be aware of in the shape and space strand. From the basics of shape naming and counting methods for area, through to area of plane shapes (including circle and trapezia), these 15 minute assessments can be used as homeworks or in lessons to review the students' understanding of content aimed at those targeting a grade 4. Answers not included.

The second lesson that follows on from lesson A. In this lesson the students will expand a bracket and then simplify with another two terms under addtion and subtraction. The resource is differentiated and the first level of questions expands the brackets for the student and asks them to simplify. The second level sess students expand their own brackets and simplify under addition. The third level includes negative numbers. The resource can be printed into a booklet so that students can write on. Answers are not supplied. There is also a mental starter of 10 questions.

A lesson that gets students to evaluate integrals with limits. The students will have practised how to integrate expressions and will not yet be told as to the role of the limits. This will give them practise at substituting the numbers and subtracting. The powerpoint takes the students through this process and then there is a fully differentiated resource complete with model answers, all of which have been checked.

Updated with new questions, full solutions and differentiated work. Full boardwork included.

Full lesson on how we manipulate fractions involving multiplication and division. Full lesson demo and fully differentiated resource which students can complete. Full solutions given.

This concludes the partial fractions theory and looks at improper partial fractions. Full demo, fully differentiated sheet for students to complete and answers provided.

A complete lesson in a series of 4 lessons that will take foundation students through the art of simplifying expressions. This starts with simple collection of terms such as a + a + 3a and 2a +4 + a - 4. The powerpoint uses dials (animated) to count the items as the expression is walked through. The fully differentiated resource that accompanies starts with one star (multi-choice) and progresses through to 3 star which simplifies expressions involving squares and negatives which students always think involve changing the power. Answer not included

Two homework books which can be printed off as a A5 booklet on a single sheet of A4 paper to test the foundation knowledge of your students. The powerpoint in the preview is the actual first booklet. The questions are things that students need to know. Can be used as a revision aid or at extra sessions in school.

The 4 classic areas that students tend to be intimidated by in Core 3: modulus, exponential modelling, differentiation and reciprocated trig functions. Go through the powerpoints at the board and model the answers. Then give students the relevant worksheet (many differentiated) and let them work through. Answers not supplied throughout

This is a write-on resource which can be used in multiple ways: as a classwork task, homework task, weekly assessment or revision aid in the run up to assessments. There are 18 quick, "must know" questions for low ability foundation GCSE students of any age. There is a section at the foot of the resource for a score and a comment which students can act upon. Using multiple resources will build up a profile of which topics students need to review to enhance their learning. The sheet can be edited to give an infinite number of variations too. Check out the other grids in the series to build a bank of resources! A low ability GCSE class will take around 25 minutes to complete a grid. The powerpoint is so you can see what a grid looks like when printed. It is not the same grid as the ones on the purchase, but a similar layout.

Powerpoints that can be used as "walking-talking" mock examinations in preparation lessons for the students on the legacy Edexcel course. Go through the questions and model, or email to the students, or print them off and ask them to complete. Full range of topics covered; all based on old examination style questions

Classic missing angle lesson for younger students or foundation GCSE. The starter is a differentiated number problem. The powerpoint takes students through how to approach missing angle questions and shows some slightly more algebraic examples. The resource can be printed to an A4 booklet which allows students to write on the sheet (no more terrible diagrams in exercise books) and is fully differentiated

Crosswords which review basic number skills and four rules of number for any student working at grade 1,2,3. Answers included on the sheet. Good for homework or filler material

A whole fully differentiated lesson which introduces students to simple proportional problems such as "3 cakes cost £4.50, how much will 5 cost?" The powerpoint takes students through the unitary method. The fully differentiated resource (1 star, 2 star, 3 star) can be printed and students can write on the sheet. The resource contains a notes section which, when stuck in their books, gives them a reference. The students select which level of work they wish to work on. Answers are not supplied.

Two (and perhaps more) lessons on finding the nth term of a linear sequence for foundation students (an +b where a is positive). The starter is differentiated and is simple number patterns. The powerpoint talks through the concept of nth term by likening it to finding numbers behind a numbered door (the term number). In the second lesson the use of the nth term (on the same presentation) is used to generate terms. The spreadsheet contains many fully differentiated tasks (at least 4) which you can select from. Most of them are write on and allow students to get through the work at some pace. There are also multi-choice tasks. The lesson check out can be used at the end of the first lesson to asses the learning
