Calculate how much each person must pay based on their orders at McDonald's. The inspiration came from mrslack_maths and his resource linked here: https://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/McDonalds-Simultaneous-Equations-6406906/ which is very nice so go and have a look at that as well!

The idea is Mr Barton's, but this is my probability contribution. Show for 30 seconds, they then get down what they can remember. Show a few times until they think they&'ve finished then check their against yours. Simples!

Batman gets Robin to replace the weapons he uses, but Ironman can only fit a certain number in his suit. This is designed to show reasonably simple tree diagrams with replacement (Batman) and move onto tougher tree diagrams without replacement (Ironman).

I really wanted some frequency polygon work but it is very thin on the ground, so I came up with this. I have also linked the website from which I got all the data. There are two versions; one (Raw Data) where they must tabulate first, and a second (Data Tables) for those you just want to get on with graphing and interpreting.

Help test the formulae the party planner uses to calculate the amounts of each item they need. Very straight forward and intended for a low ability set.

I saw a picture on Twitter showing what happens in a minute on the social networking site (lots of my students use it too). I therefore came up with this activity. I'm sure you could make more questions based upon the statistics given.

Two-way tables, filling in the missing information. I needed some questions on this for a lesson and struggled to find what I was looking for so wrote this. Typos now corrected!

Simplify the expressions, find the answer, reveal the film title! Simples. I may add more versions as a differentiated thing at a later date.

Factorise the expressions, find the answer, reveal the film title! Simples. I may add more versions as a differentiated thing at a later date.

The Avengers need your help to display this data successfully, and also calculate some averages etc. This builds up from low ability to high ability in stages, but is designed to be 'dipped into' where you need to. It covers from bar charts, through scatter graphs and frequency polygons, up to histograms and contains the calculations that go with each. The teachers' notes are just as a guide and don&'t need to be adhered to, but I have tried to guess the kinds of calculations that students might perform. Transparency of the title pages sorted!

Expand the brackets, find the answer, reveal the film title! Simples. I may add more versions as a differentiated thing at a later date.

I found this poster with various numbers regarding the World Cup in Brazil and made this activity from it. Change the questions at will. I have also put a link to the website 'My Life In Numbers' as that has a new 'Live Event' measuring from the start of the tournament.

Help William 'Billy' Black anaylise the data he has to see if he will make enough before his abduction by aliens. This includes reading pictograms, bar charts, pie charts, frequency polygons, finding three averages and estimating the mean. I'm sure you can all come up with other calculations/interpretations that they can make too!

Disarm the bombs by typing in the code that requires Bidmas to find the answers. I admit it, I came up with the name first.

Powers calculations to get correct so that the student can defuse the bomb successfully. This is based upon squares and cubes but ventures into other powers of 2 and 10.

The usual story but with some Bidmas/Bodmas questions. If you’ve not seen these before then the students must answer the questions correctly in order to know the order in which to defuse the bomb.

This help William 'Billy' Black calculate how much grease-proof paper he needs plus how much each cake tine can hold. The shapes go from cuboids to a cylinder to a hemisphere to a frustum, so you can start and finish where you like.

A student asked me in a lesson today 'Who is ever going to use this in real life?'. So I did this as an example. Students choose on which 2 of 5 roads should speed cameras be installed and explain why they made their choice.

Read this piece of news item from the BBC Sport website, then answer the questions, mainly about percentage change.

Casey is doing the AQA Further Maths Level 2 Certificate but keeps making mistakes; can your class help Casey and explain what went wrong? This time Casey is tackling circle theorems, trigonometric identities, trigonometric equations and surds (trigonometry in right-angled triangles). Spot the mistakes…
