Foundation GCSE solving equations of type a(bx+c)=d Fully adaptive resource with two stages of scaffolding. Answers provided. Student comment box. Powerpoint with accompanying examples

Full lesson solving equations of type ax+b=cx+d Fully animated powerpoint Write-on student friendly resource. Worked examples 40 questions Two levels of student scaffolding Answers provided

A full lesson on the classic examination question based on unitary proportion. The powerpoint takes students through how we can very simply change a recipe for 4 biscuits into a recipe for 8 biscuits and then evolves to see how we could perhaps change recipes for 6 into recipes for 8 by scaling down and then up. There are two resources to accompany the lesson, both of which are fully differentiated and,when printed in A4 booklet form, allow the students to write on, including their working. Answers not supplied and the recipes are not real! I usually finish this lesson with the Maths 4 Real video with Ben Shepherd (although I cannot include this video as I do not own it)

A full lesson on the practise of the four main transformations: rotation, reflection, enlargement and translation. Full animated powerpoint shows students the basics of the transformation and then some typical exam style questions. The spreadsheet contains multiple resources, all of which are differentiated and can be printed for the students to write on. Many contain the answers also.

An introduction to rotational symmetry: a topic for some reason all lower ability students accept and then forget! The fully animated powerpoint shows the tracing of a shape and spinning it around 1 full revolution. Other examples are then shown. The fully differentiated resource goes from 1 star (multi choice) to 3 star (demanding complete the shape so that it has rotational symmetry type questions). All tasks can be printed and written on, although you may have to adjust the dimensions of the sheet so that it prints near perfect square grids (this will affect the quarter turns). Answers are not given

Three differentiated grids for quick fire revision created to help students review the content of our first module of study in school. Ideal for preparation for end of module examinations or homeworks. Each grid contains 20 questions based on number skills, ratio, proportion, simple algebra manipulation, angle theory, perimeter. There is an easy version (1 star) and a harder version (2 star) and students can select (or be guided) to the side that they wish to attempt. All in all 120 questions…but no answers (you have to work them out yourselves!).

The lesson is a fully differentiated write on resource that reviews classifying angles, measuring angles, angle calculations (point, line, triangle, parallel). The other 3 documents are multi-choice revision which can be used as homeworks. Great for students working at grades 1/2/3

Full lesson on calculating estimates of the mean from a grouped distribution. Powerpoint shows how the theory works and then 3 leveled resource which students can write on tests their knowledge. Finding the modal class and the interval which contains the median is covered but is not the main objective. Answers not included but the spreadsheet could be programmed to calculate the answers.

Complete lesson on value for money, a very frequently examined topic. Powerpoint takes students through how we look at three deals and scale up or down to ensure that we have bought the same amount in each place, allowing a comparison to be made. The resource follows the powerpoint and allows student to be fully supported from one star to three star. The sheets can be printed and written on, stuck in students' books to allow a reference to their learning

A whole lesson (powerpoint and resource) that will introduce students in Year 13 to solve differential equations by separating the variables. The powerpoint takes students through the process and the examples are printed with their solutions on the resource which is fully differentiated. The first level guides students through the process of solving and the second level lets them try the equations themselves. There is an examination question and there is a challenge. Answers to the exercise are not supplied

An entire lesson that shows students the value of the digits in a decimal number. There is a differentiated starter where students have to recall simple doubles. The powerpoint then shows students which label we attach to which digit. It goes into an extension of converting decimals to fractions if so interested. The fully differentiated resource contains 3 bonus worksheets which can all be printed off and written on by the students

A complete lesson on the basics of trying to estimate the answer to a calculation by rounding the numbers. Ideal for any student working at grades 1,2 or 3. The differentiated starter gets students to round numbers (answers given). The powerpoint then takes them through the skill of estimating and gives real life examples (context). The resource that accompanies the lesson matches what the students have been shown and can be printed for them to write on. There are also 3 bonus worksheets in the file as well. The lesson checkout can be used as a plenary to assess what your students have learned

Complete fully differentiated lesson for students working at grades 1,2,3,4. Topic is writing which number the arrow is pointing to on a linear scale with 4,5 or 10 divisions. The powerpoint shows the students how to tackle the problem using a strategy of subtraction then division to see the step size. Fully differentiated resource goes from 1 star (easy) to 3 star (hard) which includes decimals sub-intervals and some time intervals

Entire lesson to teach students how to convert between grams and kilograms. Fully differentiated resources shows students how to convert between the two units and then has some problems to solve. 1 star is very simple conversions involving little movement of decimal point and then two and three star involve more complex decimals and more complex problems to solve. Fully animated Powerpoint shows students all they need to know

Complete revision lesson for lower ability GCSE students or higher ability younger students which covers the basics of algebraic manipulation. The topics covered are collection of terms, simplification of powers, expansions of brackets, evaluating and creating expressions. The powerpoint takes you through the basics and then the differentiated write-on resource allows students to select one of two levels of questions. Answers are not included. There is a screen shot of the resource on the last slide of the powerpoint

A complete lesson which takes students through how to find the mean, median, mode and range when given discrete data in a table. Lesson includes a starter, the Powerpoint for to show the students how to tackle the work and a fully differentiated resource which includes notes and space for students to write their solutions. There is also a built in plenary section for students to assess their progress. Answers not included.

Complete lesson on listing the inequalities that define a shaded region on a graph. Fully animated Powerpoint showing students how to name the line, decide whether to use strict inequalities. Fully differentiated resource goes from multi-choice (level 1) to advanced (level 3). Resource contains student notes and plenary evaluation section. No solutions given.

Complete lesson where students will shade the region defined by 2 or more inequalities. Fully animated powerpoint shows students how to complete the work. Full differentiated (3 levels) task sheet complete with blank grids for students to write on. Students get a set of notes at the start of the task and a plenary to complete at the end. No solutions given.

Complete lesson for more able students to show them how to solve linear inequalities and represent their solutions on a number line. Powerpoint fully explains method using traditional “do the same to both sides” approach. It also discusses dividing by negatives and how this can be avoided by adding the x to both sides. Fully differentiated (three levels) write on resource with student notes section and a self-evaluation plenary section. No answers included.

I deliver the easiest of the measures of data in one lesson. The mode, median and range all obtained from small data sets. The powerpoint is animated and shows the importance of the ordering of the data and then gives definitions. The classic “give me 3 numbers whose median is 4 and range is 5” type problems are also developed during the lesson. The resource can be printed on and is fully differentiated from one star (lots of support and small data sets) through to 3 star (larger data sets, even numbers of data and more challenging questions). Note answers are not given
