A pdf of a 46 slide PowerPoint that introduces or utilises many mathematical concepts. Mainly for post-primary settings but elements could be used in primary.
There is at least a months material for lessons and will be useful for revision classes or an introduction to the concepts involved. Please review it if you download it and do put it to good use.
If you think this is good, think about purchasing the PowerPoint. It allows the teacher to introduce the key ideas to students via animated slides. Most of the ideas are easier to access through animation and slow reveal. There are answers for most problems in the slides notes. It can be downloaded here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/dashboard/resource-management/add-resource/12555207/published
These are the concepts covered:
Match Combinations: generalisations, combinations, multiplicative reasoning

25 Bar model questions and answers for GCSE thinking. The questions are from week 1 Barvember 2020.
Each day, there are 2 accessible questions, another 2 that requires more thought and a final challenging question.
All sorts of mathematical contexts are used. The solutions are efficient and designed to a minimum number of steps.

A progression of mental maths strategies for addition and subtraction from a basic level to GCSE level.
The strategies are grouped as ‘Change’, ‘Split’ or ‘Jump’. It invites students to change a problem, to an easier form, before splitting numbers or/and jumping along the virtual number line that exists in their heads.
This is a useful resource for Maths teachers of all age groups to see what are the next steps for their students and also to see the range of different possible strategies available.
A ten page workbook on the enjoyable puzzle game of Shikaku.
Simpler to master than Sudoku but with more mathematical content, Shikaku helps student develop spatial awareness.
It is a useful way for students to appreciate prime numbers in a concrete setting using the ares of rectangles and squares. Square numbers can also be contextualised.
An audit tool to use alongside the Ofsted research review of Mathematics. Maths Departments can use the tool to either audit the extent the department cover the identified features or audit how important the department views the features.
It enables Maths teachers and departments to identify areas of the review they think are important to address before homing in on the research of the relevant areas.
A self-evaluation tool assists to analyse and to assess the impact or use of the review.
