I made this resource for a top set first year class but it is suitable for any year. I was struggling to keep them on task with textbook work so I decided to make this activity. <br /> This works best in a relay fashion in groups of 4 and focuses on percentages as well as rounding.<br /> I printed out the powerpoint and gave the groups one 'aisle' at a time.<br /> Each isle has 8 items for the students to work out the percentage increase or decrease. They can use any method they want, i.e use a multiplier or type it into the calculator.<br /> It could also be adapted for non-calculator.<br /> Once an aisle is completed and all students have the work in their jotters they move onto a new aisle and harder questions. The team who fixes the supermarket and answers all the questions wins.<br /> <br /> Any improvements you think could be made please let me know. Also let me know how your class got on with it :)<br /> <br /> Eamonn

Presentation on simple and compound interest with worked examples.

This is an active and IDL lesson used to help draw and measure angles using a protractor.<br /> Each student is given a picture of Kandinsky's painting. (This is on the PPT)<br /> As a class we go through an analyse the painting of where you could possibly locate the different type of angles.<br /> Beforehand there is a brief revision of types of angles, triangles and drawing triangles and circles.<br /> Students use their protractor to find the angles in all vertically opposite lines, triangles and then quadrilaterals.<br /> There is then an extension at the end for students to make their own Kandinsky inspired painting using their measuring and drawing skills. This was used as a Friday afternoon period which then became a wall display.<br /> <br /> Any recommendations are appreciated. Let me know how you got on.

A few lessons on integers.<br /> Presentation involves everything you need to know for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing integers.<br /> <br /> First activity involves difference in temperature using star wars planets.<br /> <br /> Next activity involves difference in bank balances using Star wars.<br /> <br /> Third activity was a treasure hunt with a few examples from above.<br /> <br /> Enjoy

Game/Activity using another classic gameshow.<br /> I got students to work in pairs and answer on whiteboards whether they Deal A or Deal B was better for each question.<br /> <br /> Enjoy

Lesson using the map of Springfield to help students get used to working with a scale. I used 1cm=2km.<br /> This was for a very low ability class, so could be improved to cater for higher ability lessons.

<p>It’s here, and it is fatter than ever.</p> <p>Have a look at my Christmas Quiz for 2021.</p> <p>Standard format for a quiz, groups of 4 or so and I normally blast through 2 rounds at a time before answers.</p> <p>The answer sheet , joke round and picture round are all found on the PDF. Simply print it out on A4, back and front, and give it to each group. The joke round for the kids is usually a laugh hearing their rubbish jokes.</p> <p>Finally, to keep it competitive, I like to organise two prizes.</p> <p>One prize for the overall winners of the quiz, but then a slightly bigger Bonus prize that pupils can still be excited about.</p> <p>Once the final places of the quiz are announced, I then play a game of Play your cards right (Higher or Lower).</p> <p>To win the “Big Prize” teams have to get 5 cards in a row correct. The team that wins the quiz goes first, followed by second etc until there is a winner. If no winner, the team that won the quiz win both prizes. Or alternatively, give it to the team with the best joke.</p> <p>Hoep you enjoy!</p> <p>*Some questions have been used from previous quizzes, no copyright intented and many thanks for making these available</p> <p>E</p>

Worksheet used for top set third years, to be honest this class were of high ability and completed this sheet in one class and finished for homework.<br /> <br /> Sheet is differentiated to suit all abilities in the class.

Few nets to help brighten up the topic of 3D shapes.<br /> Includes Family guy and Christmas!<br /> Enjoy

Quick presentation to introduce collecting like terms with a middle set first year class. Activity at end involving collecting boxes proved quite fun and challenging for students.

Little bit of everything to do with fractions, great as a revision game.<br /> I only made 4 cards as this was used as a revision class with only 3 students.<br /> However, one could choose any 9 numbers and place in a grid like normal bingo games on Tes.

<p>A full numeracy coursework that can be used in isolation or a standalone unit of work. This was made for level 3 in Scotland but can be used for KS3 also in NI or England.<br /> There are 40 lessons attached here that can be used in conjunction with your current scheme of work, or as revision.</p> <p>Every 4th lesson is a numeracy quiz with questions from UKMT primary rounds!</p> <p><em>Disclaimer</em>: I do not own the copyright for some of the material in this booklet.

Another modified activity by dannytheref. Great resource for a starter!

This is a lesson which could definitely be improved on however has the basis of a very good and challenging cross curricular exercise.<br /> Mixing art and maths enables students to learn about lines, angles, shapes and more with the abstract art from Kandinsky. Anyone is more than welcome to comment how to structure this lesson a little more.

A game designed by dannytheref which I modified slightly to suit my top third year class to revise Surds and Indices. <br /> Differentiated from green to red. I usually asked a general knowledge question for groups to get control of the board. I used fake gold coins and ran the lesson over a week to see which team was the best, green=2, orange=3, red =4. <br /> Hit the chest to return to home screen.<br /> Hope you enjoy

Nothing fancy, few nets with pictures of toy story and south park to help engage students.<br /> Used to introduce volume.

Presentation with a bit of fun. Using angry birds as a way to show how brackets can be expanded turned out to be very useful. Students enjoyed the presentation. Questions followed are of ability for middle-top set first years, but can be made suitable for any age/ year group.
