Practice question on topics that pupils might come across when sitting extra maths tests for admission to Cambridge, Oxford, or some other universities.
The topics covered are:
Worksheet 1 - Trapezium Rule, Fixed Point Iterations
Worksheet 2 - Equations, Proportion, Probaility, Riddles
Worksheet 3 - Graphs, Logarithms
Worksheet 4 - Inequalities, Necessary and Sufficient, Proof, Logic
Worksheet 5 - Sine and Cosine Rule, Trig Identities
All with full solutions.
(See my other resource for all the STEP Statisitc questions)
Questions on the volume and surface area of a cuboid, cylinder, prism. Includes changing units between cubic centimetres and litres.
Includes one worksheet with answers and a follow-up worksheet too.
Edit: added summary sheet and another worksheet
A series of fun challenges working out what comes next. Some are mathematical, some require more lateral thinking.
Good as an extension activity.
Full solutions provided.
This is a free-standing resource on ordering decimal numbers.
It involves questions like 3 x 500 up to things like 300 x 22 ÷ 60
It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution.
Full solutions included.
Six challenges showing where Pi turns up unexpectedly
Easy (Secondary School) - Simplifying fractions, Square root of two
Medium (GCSE level) - Fibonacci numbers and area of polygons
Hard (A level) - Probability theory, Area of a circle
A great way to introduce formulas, with a fun activity to estimate how fast your reaction time is.
The Power Point introduces the idea of reaction time then shows pupils a simple experiment they can do, which leads to a formula for converting centimetres on a ruler to reaction time in seconds.
A set of 15 short but interesting maths puzzles that lead pupils around the school. The questions require no special maths knowledge and can be done for ages 10+.
I’ve filled in the maths clues, you will need to add the 15 locations to the clues and hide them around the school.
I’ve done this with a whole year group before in the school grounds - because the clues go in a loop they can start anywhere.
Once a pair/team have done all 15 clues they can come to you for the ‘final challenge’.
Full answers provided.
A series of 17 one-page handouts each with explanations, examples then questions.
Covers Numbers, Negatives, Fractions, Percentages, Algebra.
For lower ability classes I print these out and they stick them in their jotters.
The topics are:
Types of Number, Factors, Powers, Prime Factors, Negatives adding and subtracting, Negatives multiplying and dividing, Fractions of an amount, Equivalent fractions, Mixed numbers, Multiplying and Dividing fractions, Adding and subtracting fractions, Finding percentages, Fractions decimals percentages, Substitution, Multiplying Brackets, Simplifying, Solving Equations)
A series of projects on rearranging formulas.
(Note: Some of the embedded equations do not display well on the TES preview but they all display perfectly on the downloadable PDFs)
Each project is linked to real life situations, and also includes lots of practice at other KS4 / National 5 Skills: standard form, algebra using brackets, volume formulas, rounding, units, surds.
Four worksheets covering the following topics
- differences between times (minutes, hours days)
- hourly wages (including time and a half and double time)
Used for National 4 Lifeskills Finance Module
A series of five homeworks covering the topics of
- time (hours, days, weeks etc)
- hourly salaries
- tax
- loans and repayments
- money exchange
- budgeting
A series of three worksheets on solving equations. Covers all types of equations:
Simple: n + 3 = 5
Multiple n: 2n - 3 = 5
Subtracting variable: 5 - 2n = 1
Tricky numbers: 31 + 3n = 5
Squares and roots: 30 – 2n^2 = 12
Brackets: 3(n + 2) = 11
Letters on both sides: 3(3 + n) = 4(n - 3)
Now with solutions included.
Edit: Added Powerpoint of two pages on same topic plus ‘Think of a Number’ problems
Powerpoint questions on the following topics.
Binomial
Chi squared
Confidence Intervals
Continuous Uniform Distribution
Discrete Uniform Distribution
Mean and Variance
Poisson distribution
Proportion
Regression
Transforming Variables
All with full solutions
A series of worksheets exploring the link between door codes, Euler Graphs and also De Brujn Graphs. This will introduce pupils to the concepts of
- vertices
- edges
- degree of vertices
- directed graphs
A series of simple questions for pupils to answer on mini-whiteboards (or any other way).
Topics here are combining simple terms and multiplying out brackets.
