I am now a retired teacher having taught for over 40 years in the UK at secondary level. I wanted to share my love of Mathematics and teaching by providing a good set of resources which will more than cover all your needs for as many topics as I can and at good value for money. I am trying to cover many topics from foundation level GCSE up to grade 9 at higher level in a way that is interesting and relevant. I hope you like my style !

Solving Linear Equations Without Brackets Worksheet - 100+ Qs answers included

(0)
This PDF contains over 100 questions on linear equations without brackets. I used this for all classes. At KS3 I may only use the first half of each question and allow the more able student to attempt the second half. At KS4 I used it for revision and simply asked students to go down one column. Each set of questions gets progressively harder and answers. Question 1 - 26 parts of the form ax = b - latter answers include negatives Question 2 - 26 parts of the form a + x = b or a - x = b - latter answers include negative Question 3 - 26 parts of the form ax + b = c or even b - ax = c - latter answers include negatives Question 4 - 26 parts of the form ax + b = cx + d and harder - latter answers include negatives. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

(Grouped) Frequency Tables - 11 questions with answers

(0)
Aimed at KS4 this pdf contains 11 questions on finding the mean, mode and median from grouped frequency tables. I have covered both discrete and continuous data and, for the latter, I would expect the more able students to be able to use linear interpolation to estimate the median - so I have included questions on this, though they can be omitted if not needed. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Aimed at KS3 and foundation level GCSE. This PDF has 11 questions on finding the averages from a discrete frequency table. Though Mean, mode and Median are requested I always asked pupils to state the range of the data too. All questions are in context and are relevant. I use these at KS3 and also at foundation level at KS4. The last two questions are a little more tricky with the median though. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

This pdf consists of 10 questions on Mean, Mode and Median of discrete with a small range - frequency tables are covered in a seperate worksheet. The first question (with around 20 parts) is simply finding Mean, Mode and Median and I used this with year 7 and also used it to discuss RANGE. The second set of questions I tended to do in Year 8 or 9 but can be used for revision with lower ability groups - these questions explore the pupils understanding of Mean. Ideal for the introduction of Mean, Mode, Median and Range and also useful for a revision worksheet. Answers are included.

This PDF is a worksheet of six questions on ‘Drawing Pie Charts’. Each question covers a full page and the circle and starting line are presented to the student. Answer on the sheet - or use each question to show how the work should be set out and angles calculated. I used this with KS3 initially but found it really useful to talk through, ‘How to answer exam questions’ with the foundation level GCSE groups too.
