Real-life problems involving direct and inverse proportion showing students that they don't have to be a mthematical whizz in order to understand the topic.

This is a worksheet with tables using actual data released by the PFA and came from an investigation by the BBC's Football Focus. It's all quite straight forward stuff, but might open student eyes somewhat! Students use he data to calculate percentage changes.

Insert the numbers in the correct positions, making the calculations correct to win a roast dinner for the hungry camp members. Thank you for all the feedback about the confusing wording. I have changed it so hopefully it now makes more sense!

Laura Craft, our hero, has slides to go down this time ot complete the game that are in the shape of cubic graphs. we have the equations but not the graphs (you need to draw them) and work out which is the steepest - could you tell from the equations?

This KS4 quadratic graphs worksheet is Lara Croft themed. Work out the equation of the graph that needs to be programmed in to make Laura swing and then plot the other two graphs from the equations given. This is an attempt to bring quadratics into the world occupied by students.

The Blue Darts Parallel and Perpendicular Problem is a GCSE worksheet on equations and gradients. The Blue Darts formation flying team want to plan a big finale to their display by creating an aerial rectangle. Can you help them find the equations of the lines that they need to fly along? What do you spot about the equations and their gradients?

Save Our Satellite - Simultaneous Equations: Trying to find a real life example of where we might solve simultaneous equations graphically I came up with this. Students have to plot to linear graphs and find the point of impact. You could bring in Pythagoras and find out if the two bodies were travelling at the same speed would they actually collide, but I wanted to keep the worksheet to one side of A4.

Robot Wars Challenge: a pair of worksheets which I was trying to bring vectors into a real-life context. Hopefully I've succeeded. A great activity for GCSE students.

Cartoon Linear Graphs: Get from one character to their sidekick and tell name the line upon which they've just travelled in the graph. An attempt to make linear graphs a bit more interesting.

In these worksheets students read the 14 cartoon characters' co-ordinates from the grid. Makes reading co-ordinates a little more fun!

Go through the circle theorems with your class then get them to use their newly found knowledge when calculating the missing angles on these logos for the embroidery machine.

In these worksheets the various questions use how many songs you can get onto an MP3 player (1Gb = 250 songs) to look at ratio. Leads onto other questions involving fractions and percentages.

No knowledge of cricket required, just some names of counties! Choose the correct numbers from the list and unjumble the letters.

Choose the numbers that are either multiples or factors of the number in italics and unjumble the letters to find a football team.

Substitute the values into the expressions and unravel the famous mathematician. Updated so the instructions are actually accurate!

In this activity various cartoon characters have been transformed - can the students describe each transformation?

This activity uses clues involving number facts and special numbers to find certain items in a supermarket. Some of the clues are easier than others, but it's a nice challenge and makes students aware of Fibonacci, square, cube and triangle numbers.

A KS3 resource activity with worksheets to be completed by students. This was an idea I had that actually came to fruition - it's based around a secret agent type mission. It involves deciphering codes, grid references, bearings, simplifying algebra, ordering fractions and sequences. I did a silly video to introduce it using some of my daughter's puppets. Hope you enjoy it, my classes certainly did.
