This is the third in the crossover problems designed to promote crossover problems between topics in mathematics. This concentrates on mode and range with number topics such as factors, multiples, squares and primes. This can be used with crossover with median and number, and crossover with mean and number. I welcome any feedback!

The next crossover resource incorporates median with factors, multiples, squares, negatives, primes and cubes. It involves plenty of practise with problem solving, fluency and reasoning. All these resources can be used as a classroom piece of work, homework, assessment, broken up to mini-tasks, starters or differentiated resource. I welcome any feedback.

Today’s crossover resource focusses on mean with factors, multiples, negatives, squares, primes and cubes. There is an element of fluency reasoning and problem solving throughout the questions. Take a look, have a go yourself and let me know what you think. Feedback Welcome!

This weeks crossover problems will focus on fluency reasoning and problem solving with area and perimeter. Today’s problem focusses on regular and irregular 2D shapes, asks questions to tests students understanding of area and perimeter as well as students understanding of prime, square, cube, multiples and factors. This resource can be found on my TES page and can be downloaded for free until Friday 10th August. If you like the resource please provide feedback. Thank you!

A resource designed for challenge with prime factor decomposition. Finding HCF and LCM with prime factors decomposition, or finding the original number given the prime factors. Feedback welcome.

Students are asked to calculate the answers and sum together. There is a check in point to check that they are on the right track. To make it more difficult you could adapt it by the checkpoint but getting the student to sum the total themselves

This is a sneak preview resource for a revision session. Students are asked to calculate the answers and sum together. There is a check in point to check that they are on the right track. To make it more difficult you could adapt it by the checkpoint but getting the student to sum the total themselves

Every Friday I do literacy in mathematics. This is this weeks theme.

Activities designed to test fluency for index laws

A starter for higher sets, or a main activity for lower sets. Students are given numbers and they have to put them into the table.

This question links volume with quadratic and linear equations, and with unit conversion. The idea behind it is students look at the question which is quite detailed and wordy. There are a series of power point slides to go with this, please search GCSE Style Question - Back to Basics Thanks.

This question links volume with quadratic and linear equations, and with unit conversion. The idea behind it is students look at the question which is quite detailed and wordy, and the series of powerpoint slides will help the students to identify the key parts of the question. Please read the notes of the powerpoint for some guidance to ask the students question. Thanks.

This is a sneak preview for a resource available online for £2.50. The resource includes worked examples, fluency, reasoning questions, error analysis and problem solving. Feel free to contact me if you have any questions. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/dividing-decimals-11709134

This resource offers examples, reasoning, problem solving and fluency. I hope you like it.

A resource for adding fractions to make a whole

resource to help visualise equivalent fractions

Pupils are provided with some lego and a set of instructions. I have purposefully changed the order of the instructions. After following the set of instructions the pupils should have an object that doesn't resemble the picture of the lighthouse. This will open a discussion about why that is, why is the order of the instructions important? Then ask students to work out the correct order of the instructions. How is this related to maths, well the order of operations, (BIDMAS) is very important and hence by following the correct order of instructions you will end up with the correct answer.

This resource is a differentiation task on prime factors decomposition.

This resource is another one I will use in my year 7 lessons, and is differentiated for the lesson. It is based on highest common factor.

This is just a small differentiated resource as part of my planned lessons for year 7 BIDMAS
