I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

A Question of Algebra - What Happened Next?

A Question of Algebra - What Happened Next?

(11)
Choose one of the 6 options and then say what happens next when solving the equation. I used a template (with permission!) for the music from the excellent resource written by DanielBurke - check his resources out as they are top quality. The animations are little clunky, but do the job - I'm sure you could all make it look like Avatar! If you find the answers already on the slide then powerpoint has messed up the animations. Just contact me and I can send you my version.
Conclusions From Statistical Graphs

Conclusions From Statistical Graphs

(2)
This is a pretty simple idea for various abilities where you display a graph and the class have to write down all that the graph tells them, in full sentences! I have included a couple of misleading graphs too, which adds a bit of differentiation.

This hopefully covers all bases involving fractions, decimals and percentages from simplifying up to converting recurring decimals to fractions and everything inbetween.

Taking you through counting squares, to rectangle/triangles/parallelograms/trapeziums to compound shapes, circles, cuboids, prisms, sectors/arc lengths, cones, spheres and frustums (phew!). Complete with success criteria etc.
Solving Linear Equations

Solving Linear Equations

(80)
A series of lessons taking students through 'I think of a number' problems to simple equations, equations with brackets to letters on both sides to equations with fractional parts.
Expanding, Factorising and Solving Quadratics
alutwychealutwyche

Expanding, Factorising and Solving Quadratics

(73)
This is designed to take the students from simple expanding a bracket to simple factorising to multiplying out two brackets to factorising quadratics to simplifying algebraic fractions to solving quadratics by completing the square to solving quadratics using the quadratic formula and simultaneous equations involving quadratics. There are questions for each as well as examples and explanations. Between each section there is a 'Where are you now?' section to show progress.

Music Industry Trends

(0)
From a link on Twitter (thank you @beetlebug1) I put together this as an activity to describe the trends in sales in the music industry. This involves predictions too and should get students to read the pie charts carefully, seeing how statistics are used in a context they are familiar with.

Can you help Phineas and Ferb find the missing measurements in these calculations for their giant catapult? You also need to tell Dr Doofenshmirz whether his ray gun will still be accurate when he fires it at Agent P. Designed to be a starter or plenary.

Phineas and Ferb - Pythagoras

(2)
This is designed to be used as a starter or plenary: Can you help Phineas and Ferb calculate the missing sides on the rollercoaters they are building? Dr Doofenshmirtz also needs to know if his Snailanator ray will hit Agent P.
Monty Python Maths

Monty Python Maths

(4)
Using some (clean!) clips from Monty Python's Quest for the Holy Grail and Life of Brian (5 clips in total) there are some maths questions. Each clip (which has a hyperlink as the embed feature in Powerpoint is messing about) has 3 questions. It was a challenge given to me on Twitter! Should be fun though, and I will have to prevent myself from giggling in the corner. There are Smart Notebook version but the file size exceeds the limit apparently!

Show it for 20 seconds then they have to remember it exactly. I put the picture of me on there so they would concentrate on their reproduction rather than staring around the room, but feel free to change it to a picture of your choice!
