I have created a series of Core maths data analysis starters that I am planning on using at the start of each lesson. The answers are not done yet but I was struggling to find resources so thought I would share them anyway.

A worksheet for pupils to practice adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing with bounds.

Questions where you are given the HCF and LCM and have to work out what the possibe numbers could be.

A worksheet for pupils to practice trickier substitutions.

Converting between fractions and decimals high ability

Percentage increase, decrease, simple/compound interest, expressing one number as a percentage of another, reverse percentages.

I used the first one as an example and the pupils independently try the other two.

Designed for a Y7 top set.

Median and quartiles from a histogram. Three examples and then a worksheet. I used with a GCSE and Core Maths class.

A series of lessons on solving simultaneous quadratic equations. There is reference to linear equations to help pupils grasp the methods. When they came across solving a quadratic when the coefficent of x^2 was greater than 1 we used the formula as the class were not secure in other methods yet. The worksheet is to finish with.

A series of activities that build up slowly. Towards the end there is a section on using substitution and problems in context. The answers are on (under a white box) or after each slide with the exception of the few slides where pupils try a questions before the main activity. I will go through this question with them.

Practice of using the mean, median, mode and range.

Step by step lessons to try and get pupils to understand the methods for multiplying and dividing fractions.

Practice of using the range, median and mode then a set of questions on using the mean.

A range of topics covered. I used prior to an exam with a Y11 class.

Designed to be used at the end of teaching multiplying and dividing with integers and decimals.

The first section can be used as examples before pupils independently try the rest.

Plotting straight (linear) line graphs, midpoints and points on a line basics. Aimed at middle ability.

Percentages increase, decrease on a calculator with mixed worksheet. This is aimed at a lower foundation class or KS3 class.

Working in terms of pi. The first section is just applying the correct formula and simplifying. The second section involves solving/rearranging formula.
