A great lesson where students investigate the golden ratio proportions in the face. A 10 minute starter using the same concept with the hand helps introduce the idea. They can then look at how well celebrities fit the golden ratio. Finishes with a video that shows somebody using photoshop to make a face match the golden ratio grid (a link to youtube).

Everything required to teach the Vectors chapter in the iGCSE. Drawing vectors, finding magnitudes, calculating with vectors, vectors with bearings and solving problems with vectors.

Students take it in turns answering questions to reveal the picture behind. First to guess the catchphrase wins. A variety of topics already created but very easy to add your own.

Absolutely everything you need to teach Trigonometry. The whole units worth of lessons. - SOHCAHTOA - Sine and cosine rules - Trig in 3D - Trig with bearings - Trigonometric graphs

Easily differentiated maths warm up. Perfect as a quick starter.

Around 3-4 lessons worth or material. All resources required to teach surface area and volume of all the 3D shapes required for the GCSE. Starts with cuboids and prisms and moves on to composite 3D shapes. Followed by cylinders, spheres, pyramids and cones. Finishes with A* style questions. Fun activities and interesting questions keep the lessons engaging. An end of topic assessment is also included that can me completed and peer marked in a lesson. This resource assumes knowledge in areas of all 2D shapes.

Check out my free “Christmas maths escape room” to have a better idea of how this works. This activity runs on OneNote so students will need access to a computer. As it is done using online OneNote they do not need an account for it - just click the link and go! The powerpoint is for teachers reference to help guide students when they get stuck - the answers to each room can be found in the NOTES part of the Powerpoint. The only way I know to share this with students is using a share link which shares my original uneditable OneNote file. This does mean you will not be able to edit anything. If you spot a mistake, tell me and I will fix my original file and this will in turn fix it for anyone using the share link! If for some reason the share link stops working - just let me know and I will send you another share link. I have put the share link at the start of the powerpoint. HOW IT WORKS: Send the share link to students. DO NOT send the powerpoint to students. Each page represents a room which gives a code to access the password protected next page. Their aim is to access the final page. It works better in pairs. The Powerpoint is just for you. You only need to share the link with them. The final room tells you the 4 digit code to “the safe”. I have an actual small safe i bought online which i can easily change the code to and just put a bag of sweets in it. You could just tell them to “escape” to win or tell you the code to the safe to win. Content: This covers Algebra topics aimed at years 10 and 11 which are - Solving all Linear Equations Plotting straight line graphs Arithmetic Sequences Factorising and expanding single and double brackets

Covering the whole Bounds topic over 2 or 3 lessons.
