A mastery lesson starting with an investigation into how straight lines are formed (incase this hasn't been studied at primary school) building up to the use of reasoning and algebra in questions.

A mastery lesson starting with an investigation into how straight lines, about a point and vertically opposite angle facts are linked building up to the use of reasoning and algebra in questions. Code breaker available from here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/angles-code-breaker-answers-included-11585331 Fiona has great resources check her out. An additional challenge question was used in conjunction with this lesson and is availlable for purchase as part of a lesson found here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/angles-vertically-opposite-angles-and-missing-angles-11527843

Differentiated questions on area and perimeter of rectangles, triangles, parallelograms and compound shapes. Also some examples of trapeziums though approached as a compound shape. This includes questions on the following: Area and perimeter of rectangles Area and perimeter of triangles Area and perimeter of compound shapes Finding missing sides given area or perimeter of rectangles and triangles Finding missing sides and then area and perimeter of compound shapes Area and perimeter of parallelograms Finding missing lengths of parallelograms and non-right angle triangles Area and perimeter of worded questions Quantity/Cost area and perimeter worded questions Area of trapeziums Area and perimeter of compound shapes including use of negative space and internal perimeters Problem solving and reasoning questions. Some questions from other sources so all rights to their creators

If you haven’t heard your students talking about Fortnite then where have you been? 45 million people play the shooter game Fortnite and I can’t stop the kids I teach from talking about it. This activity incorporates lots of different concepts: Ratios/Scales Bearings Speed, distance, time Pythagoras Area problem solving Edit and remove questions as you want. If you print at 100% the scale will be 1.5cm to 250m Otherwise you might have to give it a measure if you print to fit Also: The locations from the bearings are locations required for one of the challenges this season to get them even more engaged. Half my class have taken the work home to finish so they can gain in game rewards EDIT: This is a little out of date now as the map is updated every week but I’m sure students will appreciate the thought all the same

If you haven’t heard your students talking about Among Us then where have you been? 100 million people play the social deduction game Among Us and the kids love talking about it. This activity involves plotting coordinates. This worksheet comes in 1 and 4 quadrants as well as a higher and lower details version (with and without shadow detail). As an extension, in the game characters can have hats and pets. Why not have students plot their chosen hat or pet and list the coordinates for someone else to draw. Among Us is the intellectual property of Inner Sloth, no copyright infringement intended.

Matching congruent triangles in order to find an unknown word. Answer includes which rule is used including ASA, SAS, SSA, SSS AND RHS. In one question students are also required to use angles in a triangle to find a missing angle.

Plotting 4 straight line graphs using a table of values, horizontal line, multiple and negative coefficients of x with the final equation requiring rearrangement or cover up method.

Bingo game incorporating a range of finding equations of linear graphs questions. This includes horizontal and vertical graphs, given gradient and point, parallel and perpendicular graphs, from two points and given a graph. Two PDF versions, one with answers and one without as well as the PowerPoint version for easy editing.

Students can annotate this worksheet to show the hypotenuse, with a red herring

Look at each of the example questions. Are the answers correct? If not what mistake has been made? Good for a quick plenary.

A way for your students to practice finding the area and circumference of a circle. This resource is a card sort type activity in a variety of different formats (not all include time consuming cutting out).

This resource consists of differentiated lessons. These lessons are slightly differentiated to 2 different abilities exploring negatives in context. One is a lesson using integers only and the other uses decimals. Powerpoint and Slides optimised version along with a PDF lesson plan. Also a reduced version to be used as notes or 1 to 1 teaching.

The cover-up method is well worth teaching as it helps with many areas of linear equations. No rearranging to y = mx + c required so eliminating errors Allows solving of equations in the form ax + by + c = d Allows plotting of graphs in the form ax + by + c = d Find the gradient between two points to avoid rearranging OR as a double check Questions designed for a four quadrant grid -6>x>6 and -7>y>7

This resource helps students practice adding and subtracting negatives and using problem-solving skills to complete these arithmagons where numbers in the circles must add to make the numbers in the squares. Comes with a integer and decimals version.

This resource helps students practice adding and subtracting negative by filling in the gaps to complete the sum. Comes with both integer and decimal versions.

This resource helps students practice adding and subtracting negative with this tiny recap worksheet. Comes with both integer and decimal versions.

Four axes containing a straight line graph to which you have to find the original equation, equation of a parallel line and the equation of a perpendicular line at a given point. A premium version can be found here

This is the perfect introduction lesson to descriptive/creative writing particularly for the start of a gothic writing unit. A Damp Forest is an initialism for a variety of literary techniques: Alliteration, adjectives, metaphor, similes, emotive language etc. This lesson is available in two differentiations. Higher Ability - More independent and already familiar with some of the techniques Lower Ability - Card sort matching of techniques, definitions and exampels for those less able, as well as a writing prompt.

Practice adding and subtracting positives from positives and negatives with this floral colouring sheets. Containing two different versions, one with integers and one with decimals.

This resource helps students practice adding and subtracting positive numbers from both positive and negative numbers, crossing zero. Starting with the number in the box, students should conduct each operation in turn to get a final number. Three different runs including both integers and decimals. You could tell students which run to do or let them work through them all.
