Deals with simplifying two part, three part ratios. Also includes a simplifying ratio colouring in puzzle, with loads of odd and weird ratios to discuss.

No context here. Just focused on questions about writing the formula and then finding values of y and x.

Covers writing equations, finding values and direct proportion involving things like x^2

Simple one-sheet of questions. The aim of this one is to explicitly talk about doing calculations that do not change the result. ie : multiplying by one, and explicitly linking something like 5/5 to the concept of one.

Some example problem pairs, two exercises (including dividing an multiplying by negatives)

Quadratics of the form ax^2 + bx + c Example problem pair, some questions, some examples where a and c are not prime and then some exam questions. Personally I use the grid method (Check out Jo Morgan’s Compendium of Mathematical Methods!)

Not much here. A starter, an example problem pair set, a good exercise and some questions to do some AfL at the end.

It’s CHRISTTTTTMMMAAAAATHSSSS All you need to run a full lesson with a mathematical cristmaths quiz. Designed to be accessible to all. Starts with a bit of Shakin’ Stevens asking students to tally various things he sings and notice bits of the really creepy video : - ) Goes onto a bit of converting time, some Suduku stuff, some Chris moyles Maths quizes and a bit of spot the mathematician. Have fun and have a wonderful Christmas Richard

A resource that took me 5 lessons to go through. So there’s a unit here. (Adding in a few little worksheets I found online for some extra questions) Introduces sin and cos separately, using similar triangles. Then moves onto trig tables, so students aren’t just pressing a ‘magic’ button on their calculator. Then a little exercise choosing between them. Then tan. Then choosing sin/cos/tan. Then angles. Lots here. Lots of questions, lots of examples. No challenging or problem solving questions. This was meant as an introduction.

Really quick PowerPoint with two activities. I wrote this to introduce tables of values separately from straight line graphs, as I found some students got really muddled when jumping too quickly into this topic.

CHANGELOG 4/10/21 Fixed some formatting errors Simple stuff. Example problem pairs, so exercises. I’m sure there’s loads more interesting things you can do here. I used some extra stuff I found on resourceaholic for some practice. Probably at least 3/4 lessons in these slides.

Quite like this. A little discussion on finding the midpoint, followed by an example problem pair, followed by a very scaffolded exercise followed by an activity where pupils have to look at what’s changed, which I think is quite cool. I used Dr Frost to top off a little bit of practice here, too.

Really simple resource. Changing the subject when you need to factorise. Split into three sections -If your terms are already grouped -If you need to group them -If you need to multiply across and then regroup. Example problem pairs and exercises for all, although the exercises aren’t anything very exciting at all.

Talks about equivalency before moving onto simplifying Example problem pairs, exercises for both. The PDF here is just a print out of the questions from the PowerPoint

Loads of stuff here. (But no rearranging that requires factorisation) Example problem pairs. At least 5 different activities. A discussion about what it means for something to be the subject of an equation. An activity just asking pupils if the first step is correct (I think this is quite important). Some mini whiteboard work. A stardard exercise. An activity where they have to rearrange scientific formulas (is SMSC still a thing?)

Some exercises. Some example problem pairs. Quite like the fill in the gaps exercise here.

Example problem pair and an exercise to do. Plus 5 quick questions, two exam questions and some multiple choice shenanigans aimed at hinting at the skills needed to rationalise the denominator.

A really quick example problem pair and activity. Not a whole lesson. Just wanted to be more explicit about teaching addition of surds, rather than having it as an after thought when I multiplied them.

CHANGELOG 22/09/2021 - Corrected the second exercise Covers a few cases eg -Root 8 = 2 root 2 -2Root8 = 4Root2 -Simpifying with fractions and canceling a common term. A not huge. A starter. A little activity on what is a surd. A good amount of example/problem pairs. Two question sets. Some exam questions and five quick questions at the end. Included worksheet is merely a copy of what’s on the PowerPoint.

Simple but comprehensive. Example problem pairs for discounts and increases in prices. 3 exercises for students to do. Worksheet included. Please comment and rate if you find this useful. I feed on the attention.
