A pdf of a 46 slide PowerPoint that introduces or utilises many mathematical concepts. Mainly for post-primary settings but elements could be used in primary. There is at least a months material for lessons and will be useful for revision classes or an introduction to the concepts involved. Please review it if you download it and do put it to good use. If you think this is good, think about purchasing the PowerPoint. It allows the teacher to introduce the key ideas to students via animated slides. Most of the ideas are easier to access through animation and slow reveal. There are answers for most problems in the slides notes. It can be downloaded here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/dashboard/resource-management/add-resource/12555207/published These are the concepts covered: Match Combinations: generalisations, combinations, multiplicative reasoning Two-way grids: preparation for simultaneous equations Comparing texts: data handling, sample sizes, mode, range Direction and distance: compass directions, left and right directions, absolute, relative Rectangle: area, perimeter, asymptotes Square patterns: 1. multiplicative reasoning, graphs, tables, algebraic manipulation, sequences, linear, quadratic Dissecting a square/rectangle: tangram, square, parallelogram, triangle, proportion, percentages Problems about perimeter and area: area, perimeter Ratio and proportion mystery: percentages, ratio, proportion, average (mean) House swap: interpreting distance-time graph Probability mystery: probability, card sort Fractions mystery: fractions, card sort Venn diagrams: factors, multiples, prime numbers Broken window: logic Shikaku: introduction and development Three problems: algebraic reasoning Logic puzzle: introduction to this type of reasoning What’s it worth?: preparation for simultaneous equations Wacky races: ordinal and time logic puzzle, card sort Sudoku Znorlian: binary, sequences, card sort Roofs: algebraic reasoning Antidotes: ratio, percentages, fractions Percentage paradox: introduction to Simpson’s paradox Probability investigation: tally table, sequence of outcomes Card trick: binary, base 2 place value headings

A spreadsheet that makes clear the links between graphs of quadratic functions and intercepts, turning points and symmetry. It is completely editable. It works best with a=1 since the aspect of completing the square and bracket factoring need a more sophisticated approach (version 2?). It includes a blank template for students to complete. Let me know in a review if you have any further suggestions for improvement.

A four page booklet bringing various approaches together that aim to improve how questions are asked in the maths classroom. It is designed to be used for Maths Dept CPD rather than for teaching students although some slides would be useful for teaching. It encourages teachers to ask better questions and to develop student questioning in Mathematics. It includes a modified Bloom’s taxonomy as a prism through which to see questions in Maths.

One page Maths diagnostic assessment. A pdf with diagnosic questions, rationale and assessment grid. The assessment is designed for an individual student with a teacher. The focus is method and understanding not correct answers. Can be used with a class. Should be carried out at the start and end of either an academic year, or an intervention. Please contact Cubed Maths if you identify any limitations. cubed.maths@gmail.com 079 497 497 81 Key words: Four rules of arithmetic, conceptual, procedural, computational, errors, mistakes, prior learning, multiplication, division, addition, subtraction, fractions, ratio, spatial reasoning, self-efficacy, times tables facts, 12-hour clock.

A progression of mental maths strategies for addition and subtraction from a basic level to GCSE level. The strategies are grouped as ‘Change’, ‘Split’ or ‘Jump’. It invites students to change a problem, to an easier form, before splitting numbers or/and jumping along the virtual number line that exists in their heads. This is a useful resource for Maths teachers of all age groups to see what are the next steps for their students and also to see the range of different possible strategies available.

A short PowerPoint including examples, sheets and solutions of 3-dimensional (3D) combinations of cubes drawn on isometric paper as an introduction to plans and elevations. Some slides contain advice in the notes section. If you feel this is useful do please provide feedback particularly for any improvements that could be made.

Maths activity: mean, median, mode, range. Two Excel workbooks, one with macros and one without. 11 values of dice throws show the relationships between: ordered values, the frequency table, the averages table and bar chart. The first workbook has the capability to randomly generate values or manual input. Macros must be enabled to use the second workbook that produces random values. Based on S4 unit in Improving Learning in Mathematics. Please contact Cubed Maths if you identify any limitations. cubed.maths@gmail.com 079 497 497 81 Key words: mean, median, mode, range, statistics, frequency tables, raw scores, ordering, bar charts, dice, random.

A pdf of a 22 slide PowerPoint that shows some really important maths concepts in concrete form and which pupils should be aware of. Cuisenaire rods are the main focus but enhanced with the counting stick to produce a powerful arsenal for additive reasoning. It covers equivalence, inequalities, decimals, factors, primes, composites, fractions, squares and algebra. There is at least a weeks material for all ages at primary school and applicable to secondary students who have gaps in their understanding. Please review it if you download it and do put it to good use. If you think this is good, think about purchasing the PowerPoint. It allows the teacher to introduce the key ideas to students via extensive use of animation. Most of the ideas are easier to access through animation and slow reveal.
