Two worksheets, testing basic probability with dice, coloured balls and letters. The second worksheet is more difficult and introduces sampling with and without replacement. Full solutions included. Edit: May 2023 fixed question numbering Edit: July 2024 added a Powerpoint for finding the probability with two events, explaining when to add and when to multiply the two probabilities

A fun activity to do alone or in pairs. Tests simple negative number skills (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing). Solution provided. Based on an original by eam_larkin.

A bumper resource with lots for CfE Level 2 Maths. Divided into blocks with - starters (Power Point) - questions (Power Point) - homeworks (Word) - revision (Word) - tests (Word) Covers basic numeracy topics like: numeracy, fractions, decimals, percentages, area, volume, time, money, simple algebra

A Power Point and two sets of worksheets (with solutions) on - place value - ordering decimals - decimal scales - addition subtraction division and multiplication with decimals - rounding decimals Also includes a simple decimals starter (Power Point)

A collection of misleading graphs, for pupils to recognise the flaws with. These are all taken from real life publications.

A set of five challenging questions testing the link between length, area, and volume scale factor. Full solutions provided. These questions were created by my pupils, so have a relatively real life context!

A one page sheet with eight common shapes on. Pupils should cut these out and physically fold them, to see which ones have lines of symmetry. I came up with this in response to pupils who consistently thought that a parallelogram had two lines of symmetry, and a non-square rectangle had four lines of symmetry.

This is a free-standing resource on dividing to get a decimal answer. It involves questions like 15 ÷ 2 and 4.8 ÷ 3 up to things like 396 ÷ 400 It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included.

This is a series of questions that will guide pupils from thinking only in numbers to thinking algebraically. The questions are increasingly challenging, finishing with some that require a lot of thought and can be investigated further.

This is a series of questions testing the basic principles that there are 60 seconds in a minute, and 60 minutes in an hour. They start easy and get harder, including decimals and fractions. Full solutions included.

A fun activity to be done alone or in pairs. The first puzzle is easier (no subtracting negatives) and the second one includes subtracting negatives. Based on original from eam_larkin.

A series of questions testing - sine rule (missing side and missing angle) - cosine rule (missing side and missing angle) - area of triangle using 1/2 ab sin C - bearings (with sine rule and cosine rule) Solutions provided. 2021 - added second set of questions on Bearings and Trigonometry, and a bearings homework

A bountiful set of resources to help teach the topics below: Block 1 - rounding, converting units, area and volume, time, tables and graphs, frequency tables Block 2 - fractions, decimals, hire purchase, negative numbers, coordinates, money, algebra, probability Block 3 - equations, types of number, fractions (Block 4 - powers and roots, enlargement and reduction) (Block 5) Disclaimer - although this is complete for Blocks 1 to 3 the last two blocks aren't finished.

A mix of resources covering everything in National 3 Mathematics. This was originally written for Access 3 a couple of years ago, and so is roughly grouped by the three Units of Access 3. Covers things like fractions, decimals, percentages, money, time etc.

Practice multiplying and dividing - first of all 10, 100, 1000 etc. - then by 20, 300, 4000 etc. - then using decimals, e.g. 1.3 x 300 A series of worksheets revising these basic skills, and a Power Point for revision Full solutions included for all the worksheets.

A bumper collection of resources for Factorizing Quadratics, including various activities and games and plenty of practice questions, which also include the other types of factorising required for KS4 or National 5 in Scotland. - Jokes and riddles for factorising trinomials - Catchphrase for factorising trinomials - Quadratic problems for real life problems, with trinomials, completing square and finding roots - Extra questions, with five pages of simple factorisation, difference of squares, trinomials and problem solving All provided with answers

This is a free-standing resource on finding the area and perimeter of rectangles. The difficulty comes as sometimes you need to use a bit of logic by looking at the diagram to find the dimensions of the rectangles. It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included.

A series of basic questions testing these skills: • Use the four operations with whole numbers. • Use simple fractions in context. • Express numbers given in figures in words, and vice versa. • Use money in a range of contexts. • Interpret and use information. • Select the appropriate unit of measurement for length. • Measure to a required degree of accuracy • Perform calculations in everyday contexts. • Round to the nearest unit in context. • Use fractions and percentages in context. • Use 12-hour and 24-hour times for simple problems involving time. • Select the appropriate unit of measurement for length, weight or volume. • Order everyday objects according to weight or volume. • Perform calculations in everyday contexts. • Interpret and communicate information. • Use properties of shapes. • Use further measurement skills.

This is a free-standing resource on finding the amount of line symmetry and rotational symmetry of 2D shapes. It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included.

This is a free-standing resource on simple percentages It involves questions like 50% of 24 up to 60% of 20 and 25% of 24. It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included.
