Here are 14 questions which you can give to each table or pair as a sheet of stickers and the students can choose the questions they want to answer. These are great as afterwards you can mark their books and either give them a further challenge based on what they wrote or slap in another sticker for them to do as their next lesson starter challenge. The questions are designed for them to show that they have mastered the concepts of scatter graphs and lines of best fit. These fit in with the lesson I have uploaded for free on to TES resources (Resource 11313391).

Measures Imperial Metric Conversion Appropriate Measures Domino Card Activities and some matching worksheets. The main activity here is the "Follow Me" Domino cards where the question on each card is followed by the answer on the next card. The questions are for students to choose the most appropriate measure for a particular everyday item. Couple of differentiated versions to use. The task is quite hard if given to out with all the cards on the same colour so you may wish to print each page of the cards on a different colour - this makes it easier to match cards up. The picture version makes it easier for some students. You can play it as give a set of cards to a table of four for them to arrange or give out one set of cards between the whole class and then play it as a "Follow Me Card" game. Alternatively stick them around the room and then the students play as a treasure hunt which becomes a bit more energetic. Files 11,12 & 13 are just some different but related measures conversion domino card exercises.

Originally I used this as a short 10 minute activity as part of a whole lesson of many circus activities (many other of my circus activities are listed on TES resources) however you can easily build a whole lesson around it. "Will it snow this Christmas?" is the question. First just ask this question. Then give them the last five years weather data. Make a choice again. Then give more data from last 24 years. Then ask them to make a choice again. Then give them the answer sheet. This is a good activity to provide lots of discussion. If you put the cards into sealed envelopes then it adds to the engagement and hence motivation. Its the sort of activity which looks great when being observed - particularly if you get some good discussion. You may wish to edit the city names to somewhere near your school. I made up the data but you could easily find the records of a city on the web. You may need a discussion about what constitutes snowing on Christmas day (e.g. snow flakes falling on the roof of the local BBC news building). You could bring in about how people bet on this happening. It may be worth adding in some question prompts like: How do you know this? Why do you think that? Are you absolutely sure? Can you prove it? Can you now explain to me why you think that! What evidence do you have about that one? You could put these prompts onto cards and ensure the students use them during the activity.

Fun exercise for many age ranges. Will provide a good amount of discussion and is a nice next step after estimating and experimental probabilities. Originally I used this as one short activity in a "Circus" of many activities which students go around the room playing on. (More of my Circus Activities are uploaded on my TES resources elsewhere). There are several versions of the task here which you can adapt for your learners. The basic idea is that you give a sheet of card with a grid printed onto it. Players roll coins on to the card and if the coins land so that the side sides of the coin are not touching the sides they win. One idea is you give them a variety of size grids (e.g. grid A and grid B) where the coins do or don't fit in easily. I prepare a set of game boards (A & B) for each pair of students and give them a money bag with 7 plastic toy coins in (1p, 2p, 5p, 10p, 20p, 50p, £1). You could use real money or even £2 coins if you have them. 2p is a large coin but isn't worth much so its makes it hard to win, but if you only win your stake back then you don't win much. £2 is a large coin and is worth lots so its makes it hard to win, but if you only win your stake back then you win loads. If you are doing this as a 10 minute circus activity then keep it simple. If you are doing it as a more extended piece of work then use the updated task sheet which asks the students to work out how to make the most money. Higher students will need encouragement to keep the game rules simple. Lower students will need encouragement to keep it really simple. You may choose to give them a reduced version of the problem. You can see that I then for the next lesson typed their suggestions into a worksheet which they then started the next lesson by answering the worksheet. I think there is a lot of potential here to really develop the idea of how to test the games... e.g. they need to try 100 goes with each size coin, etc. The activity certainly gets them discussing whether games are 'attractive' to play and so will bring in more money. The students usually feel that a high prize will make people want to play - even if the game is difficult to win. You could easily extend this activity into GCSE level maths to work out the profits possible.

All the key words I think my (Y7) class need for looking at Divisibility. There are two resources: >The cards are ready for printing out on card and then cutting out to use for card match table collaborative group exercise. Top Tip - get them to place the keywords in alphabetical order to match your answer sheet! > The worksheet is simply a copy for them to stick into their exercise books as notes. Get them to highlight all the key bits which are important to them. Use a copy of this for checking the answers on the card match. The cards can be printed out onto three different colour cards which make it easier for them to match a key word with its definition and the example. If you have time it would be worth grouping the keywords into difficulty levels and then only giving a subset to the lower ability tables or middle ability tables. Alternatively do what I'm going to do and give a full card set to each mixed ability tables.

A bundle of worksheets for mastering the language and knowledge of squaring and square numbers...Then....a bonus of a maze worksheet where students have to find their way through a maze using a path of only square numbers. This is a top quality way to engage and amuse the students - particularly in afternoon lessons or at the end of the term. Once they have got the idea with the smaller maze they can attempt the bigger one - this will keep them busy for hours! (well most of the lesson with any luck).

Five Triangle ID and Classification PowerPoints including 23 identification questions

You can you this in many ways: Grade the work you are giving by difficulty. Indicate on each question what grade they are from green to black. Either tell the students to do all the greens first and then move on, or allow them to choose what colour to start on. Or go around the classroom indicating to each student what they have to start on. Get students to write their own questions to set to other members of the class. Ask them to grade it from Green to black. This is good for assessing what they are comfortable at and what they think they are capable of. The PPTX can be printed out onto A3 as a poster for the wall. I sometimes need a harder than black and calling it double black seems to fit. When time allows I print the questions (with their colour grade) on a sheet of A4 sticker labels. I then give each table a sheet which will have all the questions on. If your table has four students on it there will be a discussion if there are only three green questions as someone will have to do a blue. This idea came from someone else who routinely ski route grades all their work and allows the learners to start at the level most appropriate to them. I had previously seen it presented as here are four questions on the board, now choose the question you want to do first. Recently I have seen people (and now used it myself) where several questions are given and the students have to grade them and explain why they think one is easier than the others. This ties in with my Maths Mastery Kung Fu Panda (see other premium resource) Enjoy

Print this out onto A4 cards. Give two cards to each table (choose size of number according to ability). Ask them to come up with reasons how we know that they are all divisible by three. Hopefully they will get that it is the sum of digits which are multiples of three. Show the PowerPoint to recap. Back up with other exercises to reinforce this. Then evaluate/consolidate their knowledge by showing them new numbers and asking whether they are divisible by three or not.

All the keywords with explanations presented as a very useful overview of topic fact sheet. As an intro to linear algebraic graphs I have put together all the keywords you need into a word search. After giving your students this ask them to write definitions of all the terms in the word search. Alternatively give them the fact sheet. They can paste into their books and after highlighting can use it as a reference page whilst studying the topic.

Trigonometry SOHCAHTOA Triangles Identifying the correct formula 12 Questions Three other related PowerPoints

This is a top idea which I've used many times and I think it really does provide some great discussion. The probability of it snowing tomorrow is not 1/2 as it doesn't snow very often. However students often think that as the choice is either "snow" or "not snow" so the chance of it snowing must be a half. The activities here are designed to address this misconception. Originally I used this as a short 10 minute activity as part of a whole lesson of many circus activities (many other of my circus activities are listed on TES resources) however you can easily build a whole lesson around it. The activity has nine discussion questions to decide if they are true or false. The PowerPoint is simply those questions so that you can display them to discuss them as a class. The WS is good for a homework or as a classwork exercise to get something in the book. Alternatively you could simply ask them to choose one of the questions to write into their books and then describe in detail the answer. The Mr Wrong questions are useful as starters next lesson or plenaries today. You could easily amend the questions within in them to suit the point you are trying to make with your learners. The label is obvious. The A5 asks the student to choose which Mr Wrong is wrong (the other is right) and the A4 has two versions. The A4 can be used in many ways. E.g. You can ask them to write four statements (where one is true and the rest is false) and then they pass to another student to work it out. Alternatively you could write on the statements and they could identify the right and wrong ones. You can change the statements. For example on the A5 you could make both statements false (catches them out Ha Ha!) Enjoy. Please do leave feedback if you found it useful. Thank you.

Lots of questions for practice of finding solutions using trial and improvement.

All the key words you need for number properties lessons at KS3. Any of these words can be printed out and laminated on A5 size cards for the "SNATCH MATCH" game. This is where the words are blu tacked to the wall and students stand a metre away. Teacher (or a TA or competent pupil) asks questions where the answer is one of the snatch match cards. The students are usually in two teams facing the wall. Two students at a time have the opportunity to snatch the right card. Loads of fun!

WallGameCards = Snatch Match. Print, cut out and laminate. Blue tack them to your wall. Students stand a metre away in teams so that they compete against one person each. You (or a clever student or a TA) asks questions and the students compete to grab the card with the answer. DominoCardsHarder and 4SetsDominosCards = The original is really hard. I then split them into four card sets which makes each set much easier. Identify the triangles from their properties on the cards.

Simple intro PPTs and practice questions

Really fun lesson which the students enjoyed. Used in several different ways with different ages but the basic principle is the same...Get the the students sat in groups of two or four. Give them a set of cards with different sized angles on (between 0 and 360 degrees). Then ask them to quickly grab and show a set of cards which satisfy the criteria displayed on the PowerPoint. E.g. "Give me a Right angle crew" needs two or more angles which add up to 90 degrees. Winning tables (first or most creative) wins points. At some point in the lesson tell them to all grab one card and then put away the rest. Then get them all up and get them to make up crews with anyone in the room. Loads of fun !!! Note that Crews can be any size.. i.e. you can have a Crew of one angle or a Crew made up of six angles etc. The Crew idea seemed to go down really well with the students. I also downloaded some music clips from the cartoon to add a bit more fun to the lesson. I hand wrote the angles onto small playing card sized cards. Each table needs about 12 or so cards depending on what questions you ask. This can be adapted for simple stuff like right angle crews and straight crews or made more difficult like 360 degrees. I allowed one class to write on blank cards which added more and as a result of this I had a table who started writing negative number angles on which I thought was pretty creative. The two worksheets can be used to back it up afterwards so that there is something in their exercise book to consolidate the ideas. They are in Word rather than PDF so you can easily adapt them for your learners.
