UPDATED!! New extra content
This resource has been updated March 18 and now includes six worksheets covering a range of questions on topics which can be completed on a scientific calculator efficiently.
Worksheet 1, 1a and 1b covers six topics (powers/roots, place value, remainders, primes, fractions and percentages). Worksheet 2, 2a and 2b covers three overall topics but each progresses in challenge (use of formula, right angled triangles i.e. Pythagoras’ theorem and trigonometry, circles, arcs/sectors).
Worksheet 1 and 2 are condensed, making them ideal for re-use (print and laminate) or displaying on the interactive whiteboard. Whereas 1a, 1b, 2a and 2b provide space for pupils calculations and final answers. I use these ones for homework or revision tasks.
These worksheets complement our 9-1 Efficient Calculator Use Treasure Hunt resource.

Terms of Use
This purchase allows for the use of one teacher only, please purchase the site license for wider use.
This resource “Angles in Polygons Revision Foldable” is available as part of the angle properties revision foldable pack (£3) check it out here.
Foldables can be used as a revision or summary exercise at the end of a topic. As the answers are hidden pupils can use these to test themselves or ask someone else such as a parent to test them.
This resource covers angles in triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons; finding the interior and exterior angles and recalling the rules associated. Print on coloured paper of card so it stands out in pupils notes.

GCSE 9-1 Maths Exam Bills, Statements, Credit, Debit (Task Cards)
This is a set of thirteen different task cards on bills, pay statements, bank statements, credit and debit in which pupils need to find the missing values.
This download also includes a free complementary starter activity “9-1 New Spec Bills, Statement Quick Fire Questions”. Pupils complete the ten quick fire questions on slides 3 onwards on mini white boards. We recommend you use this starter to ensure terminology such as debit and credit are understood and methods are discussed with each question. Each question helps to introduce terminology and recap basic skills of addition, subtraction and multiplication in relation to bills, pay statements and bank statements as required in the new GCSE 9-1 mathematics specification. Pupils will then be able to independently or in pairs tackle the task cards. The task cards can be printed and laminated so they can be used again.

In this Math Art activity there are three differentiated worksheets covering finding the median, mode & range from a list of numbers and from evaluating alegbraic expressions. The three worksheets are;
Worksheet 1: There are 14 questions on finding the mode, median and range from a list of numbers.
Worksheet 2: There are 14 questions in total, finding the median, mode, range and means from a list of numbers and from evaluating algebraic terms.
Worksheet 3: There are 14 questions on median, mode and range and include evaluating algebraic expressions in order to find these and one question on the mean.
Each worksheet comes in two versions, the first is split into two pages in which pupils would need to complete the questions first and then complete the colouring on the grid on the second page. The second version has questions and grid consolidated onto one page. Therefore giving the flexibilty of how you may use the resource.Also in this download you will receive two versions of the product, one is for A4 printers (UK) and the other letter size for US printers.
Math Art combines the fun of colouring and the consolidation of mathematical skills. It is ideal as a plenary activity to determine what learning has taken place, alternatively use to determine pupils prior knowledge to a topic and of course great for revision.

In this math art activity pupils need to identify the gradient (slope US) of a function, rearrangng where necessary from the implicit function to y=mx+c and hence identify the gradient. Pupils then shade all the squares with those answers in the colour stated. As a result pupils will have a picture of an Easter chick.
There are** three different worksheets** of increasing difficultly, they are;
Worksheet 1: There are 14 questions on finding the gradient from functions where Q1-14 the functions are already in the form y=mx+b (or mx+b=y) and one final question which requires rearranging to get the form y=mx+b
Worksheet 2: There are 14 questions, the first 5 pupils find the gradient of functions already in the form y=mx+b and then the remaining questions they must rearrange with the last few giving fractions.
Worksheet 3: There are 14 questions and pupils will need to rearrange them all.
There are two versions of each worksheet, either condensed to one page as shown in the cover photo, or questions and colour grid split into two pages to give you the flexibility of just doing the questions on the worksheet before any colouring. Also included are a A4 version (UK buyers) and a letter size version (US buyers).
