KS3 Activity. Simpsons activity. A set of cards with simpsons characters and fractions. The main activity of the lesson is to find how many sweets everyone in springfield ate if they were all given a bag of 24 sweets. A little starter on division and some animations showing how to split piles of sweets into given fractions. I used this with bottom set year 7 to start fractions and they liked it especially as i gave them all 24 skittles to help them practise ( i told them the 'S' stood for springfield).

A powerpoint showing how the graphical methods for solving simultaneous equations using the cover up method. Not sure it's the most mathematically sound way of teaching it in the world but worked with the group i had, horses for courses and all that

A simple KS3 powerpoint showing how to find the area of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles and trapeziums (trapezia?). some quesyions at the end with answers.

A PowerPoint with 16 world records, students have to make estimates with sensible units, then there are links to show the answer along with a picture. Good maybe as a starter or fun end to a few lesson. A good thinking skills activity.

KS3 / GCSE statistics activity. A powerpoint showing how to find the angles needed for a powerpoint, with some questions at the end. Hope you find it useful.

This is based on some I can statements for level 1 math and I made it for students in my main stream class

A worksheet with converting between fractions decimals and percentages, maybe best for a revision exercise or a with a group who has seen the work before, have a look, let me know what you think.

KS3 / GCSE PowerPoint Activity. Same idea as my first megapower, slides of question on a range of topics. Tried to take on what people said about the last one so have tried to make slides clearer and more importantly have put answers up. Please remember that there are well over 10000 answers on here so a couple are going to be wrong due to slips when i was working them out.(includes fractions,decimals percentages, transformations, trigonometry, area, angles, construction, equations, quadratics, sequences, graphs, sampling, probability and a load more)\n\n\nBen

30 multiple choice quizzes, good for if you give students cards labeled a,b,c,d to wave. Includes lots of percentage work, decimals, addition, multiplication and division practise, rounding, decimals, primes, squares, hcf, lcm.

A powerpoint which covers most fraction topics. Includes simplifying, equivalent fractions, adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing, conversion to decimals and percentages, ordering fractions, finding fractions of amounts. \n\nThere are questions to practise with. I intend to give it to students so they can take it home to revise from, these aren't intended to be full lessons. Hope you find it useful.\n\nLittle error with adding fractions slides sorted out

A scheme of work i made based on OCRs specification, designed for our students who won't be entered for GCSE maths. The course is designed to be completed in about a year, but i'm thinking I&'ll need to be flexible with the timings and use the same scheme for year 10 and 11. Hope you find it useful

A lesson on completing the square with a quiz for a starter, a few examples and a quiz at the end

A GCSE powerpoint showing how to find the eqaution of parallel and perpendicular lines, with some questions at the end. To be used on the interactive whiteboard.

Students take it in turn to pick a square on the grid, then they each roll 2 dice, one to give a value of a and the other the value of b, they then work out the value of the expression for thier values, whoever has the highest puts his/her color counter on he square. However has the most counters on the board at the end wins.

A KS3 powerpoint activity showing how to calculate the circumference of circles and the perimeter of shapes with curved sides, with some questions and answers at the end.

A powerpoint showing how to find percentages such as 76% by splitting it into easy to find percentages like 50,25 and 1. Assumes pupils can find, 1,10,20,25, and 50%. Some questions at the end.

A powerpoint showing how to find the equation of a straight line in the form y=mx +c, lots of examples including negative and fractional gradients, and some questions for students to try.

A KS3 / GCSE statistics. A PowerPoint showing how to create scatter graphs and the different types of correlations. Some data at the end to create scatter graphs from. One question accidently gave the wrong sort of correlation, but the discussion that came from it was really good so i kept the mistake in.

Questions from handouts that cover a variety of topics from 6th - 11th grade. There are about 100 sets of questions organized into a PowerPoint. Topics include fractions, decimals, percents, transformations, trigonometry, area, angles, construction, equations, quadratics, sequences, graphs, sampling, probability and many more).

A powerpoint showing the bus stop method for division. Ideal for KS2 and KS3 students.
