16 percentage increase problems based on 20% VAT. Originally designed as Quiz-quiz-trade cards. QQT - Everyone has a card. Form pairs. Person A asks Person B what the price of an item is after VAT increase. If Person B unsure, then Person A uses the coaching hints to help guide Person to the correct answer. The Person B repeats process on Person A. (The Quiz-Quiz part.) Now the pair exchange cards and go off to find new victims ;) (The Trade part). [25/1/16. Grammar corrected!]

Worksheet with scaffolding that reduces for each question for expanding double brackets using a “grid multiplication” method.

Worksheet on reading timetables (using a real bus timetable!) and planning journeys.

Various shapes (all but one rectilinear). All have missing lengths which need to be found. Two are in mixed units. Answers given in text box. (Delete before printing!)

Visual demonstration/explanation of multiplying a fraction by a whole number using diagrams

Presentation and worksheet for middle ability Y8 students. (50 minute lesson.) Could be extended for students to calculate area as well.

Worksheet to complete topic (or as homework). Identify gradient/y-intercept from 3 equations and 3 graphs; sketch 3 graphs using y=mx+c.

Fairly basic set of 15 Qs to be used with flashcards, whiteboards etc. Covers integers with indices and algebraic expressions. Add/subtract rules. Useful as revision or building up to add/sub simple powers.

Explanation plus 4 scaffolded questions for how to find the nth term of a quadratic sequence. Answers on separate PDF.
