I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

A shopkeeper has dropped some boxes of Easter eggs and spilled the contents. Can you help him work oou how many of each sweet goes in the large and small eggs?
This is an activity where you have to calculate missing sides and angles for computer software designers, based upon Link's Crossbow Training on the Wii! There is an extension where they have to produce general formulae where there are different ways of calculating the same thing depending on what you are given.
Using the fighting game of Tekken can you help the programmers calculate the missing angles in each move? This is designed to be a starter of an angles lesson, not a challenge. I have done a Smart Board version to save on printing.
I found the cartoon on the first slide on Twitter (I'm sorry, I forget where) and I thought that my students could probably brush up on their Pythagorean triples like Batman. This was the result. The Powerpoint is animated and the Notebook file has screen shades, depending on the software at your disposal and your preference. There is a table of answers on the final slide of both files too.
If the statement is ture, colour in that numbered square, if false, leave it blank. The QR code links to the title sequence from 'The Littlest Hobo' which is possibly the catchiest theme tune ever.
Find the equations of the asymptotes that the players hit ball along. As a freelance baseball mathematician you need to tell their opponents where not to place fielders.
Help Santa do a stock check by changing all the units to the ones he wants. I wrote this because I had a bottom set who had just been doing units and thought it was relatively festive as well as hitting my objective!
The elves have packed the sleigh with two sacks before checking the weight of each present! There isn't time to unpack the presents to weigh the presents individually, so can you use your knowledge of algebra to help?
These are levelled/graded worksheets covering the GCSE curriculum and split up into topics. Each individual sheet builds from the most straightforward elements of the topic through to the most challenging. At the top of each sheet is a “RAG” table for students to complete before and/or after completing each section; every statement in a RAG table is connected to a section in the sheet. I have produced these for two reasons: firstly to allow my Year 11 students to focus their revision on the areas that will make it most efficient and secondly to have a bank of worksheets available that students can differentiate themselves for any GCSE topic within lessons. Now with contents page and updated in December 2018!
On a trip around my local record and charity shops I found the 7 inch single of the Fraggle Rock (a popular 1980s children’s TV show featuring muppet-like creatures) theme tune. Having posted a picture of my find on social media it was suggested that I should write a maths resource involving them and this is what occurred. It is essentially fractions, decimals and percentages (you probably guessed that from the title) and involves finding the fraction of an amount, comparing fractions, equivalent fractions, decimals, percentages, percentage of a number and repeated percentage change. The presentation includes links to the theme tune and uses the characters from the show. The last video link now updated.
