I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

Simultaneous Equations - McDonald's Style

Calculate how much each person must pay based on their orders at McDonald's. The inspiration came from mrslack_maths and his resource linked here: https://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/McDonalds-Simultaneous-Equations-6406906/ which is very nice so go and have a look at that as well!
Sequences: Term-To-Term Rules

Sequences: Term-To-Term Rules

(19)
Describe the term-to-term rules of these then it could be extended to link into nth terms. This is an attempt to show the relationship between the difference and the nth term through comparison and therefore discovery rather than the teacher just saying how it works. I have also thrown in some "famous sequences" that can be discussed.

Calculus Spiders

This covers basic differentiation, finding gradients at given x values but could be used to introduce integration plus moves on to negative and fractional powers of x. Could be used at Core 1 (or whatever they are going to call it when it changes) and with the new GCSE.

Barbie and Ken's Rearranging Formulae

(13)
Help rearrange Barbie and Ken’s ornamental algebra around their penthouse. I&'d like to thank the person who was brave enough to give me one star but not brave enough to tell me why so that I can try to rectify it.
GSCE Maths: Surds Worksheet

GSCE Maths: Surds Worksheet

(10)
This sheet starts off with some examples and questions about surds - pretty easy ones to be honest. There is a surds 'joke' at the end to complete. This was an attempt to make surds a little more interesting and to show just how easy they really are.

The Unbelievable Bulk - Enlargement

(10)
Calculate how angry The Bulk is by figuring out what scale factor he's enlarged by and using Bulk's 'Angry Scale'. See how that relates to his 'safety' box and its surface area and volume.
Defuse The Bomb - Substitution

Defuse The Bomb - Substitution

(6)
The usual ‘answer the questions and defuse the bomb’ story, this time involving substitution. Two worksheets, the second one being more difficult than the first.
Multiplying Out Brackets

Multiplying Out Brackets

(4)
These three powperpoints are designed to lead people through multiplying out brackets. I would suggest searching for Alex Bellos' different ways of doing long multiplication on YouTube as they link nicely in with the first bit of the 'Multiplying out 2 brackets' presentation and are a bit of fun too.
