I designed a lesson where the students draw a map with key places and key characters then write the story of their journey through their map. Bearings and Scale are the key features of their story. Peer assessment.

I made these to use when displaying my students of the week. Editable school and teacher name. I also use my xbox avatar as a mini me for the poster.

A worksheet that practices using a table to plot straight lines then uses the similarities and differences to compare with the equation of the line and eventually lead to gradient and intercept with y=mx+c.

A selection of different functions that have been transformed then both graphs plotted on the same axis so they can be compared. This allows the students to investigate and try to discover how changing the function will change the graph.

Too many students do not know the difference between an expression, equation and formula to name but a few so here is a worksheet were pupils fill in the missing gaps for the words associated with Algebra . Term, expression, equation, identity, formula, coefficient, variable. Used with Y7-Y11.

This is a starter activity on all averages and range. It includes 4 levels of challenge and includes two sections of problem solving and has all answers.

This is a differentiated mini assessment on: Prime Factorisation HCF LCM BIDMAS Using a calculator for roots Rounding with Decimal Places I have used colours to show the different level questions (Blue=easiest - Red=Hardest) There is a box built in for feedback and a power point with full worked solutions. There is also a problem solving question.

This is a lesson on simultaneous equations based around the comparing cups of tea method. It is aimed at Foundation GCSE but could also be used with KS3 groups as an introduction to simultaneous equations. Includes power point with two worked examples and a starter question. Worksheet with answers for independent learning.

This is one of my most poplar worksheets turned into a lesson I find very effective. I give the students a card each with either a picture definition or a worded definition. They then walk around the classroom asking what the other person has and seeing if they can name or define it and then swapping cards. I stop them at regular intervals and get them to tell me something they have learning. They then use this knowledge to fill in the properties sheet.

This is a starter activity I use with my lower sets and would be perfect with KS1/2 also. The idea is to have it as a mental addition activity but can be used in as many ways as you can think of :)

4 rounds: Round 1: Video Games Round 2: Harry Potter Trivia Round 3: Movie Posters Round 4: Movie and TV Sound Clips (Embedded) All rounds with fade in animation for smart boards.

Problem Solving for Fractions Percentages Ratio and Proportion. This is an activity turned into a full lesson based around a detective agency. Every activity is provided with full slides and answers. I stapled the instructions to little bags with the clue cards in. Also covers literacy as they have to write a letter to the head teacher at the end of the activity. Comes with an extension element.
