A set of 15 short but interesting maths puzzles that lead pupils around the school. The questions require no special maths knowledge and can be done for ages 10+. I’ve filled in the maths clues, you will need to add the 15 locations to the clues and hide them around the school. I’ve done this with a whole year group before in the school grounds - because the clues go in a loop they can start anywhere. Once a pair/team have done all 15 clues they can come to you for the ‘final challenge’. Full answers provided.

A comprehensive set of 15 questions (with a,b,c) testing the following skills converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers converting between fractions, decimals and percentages adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions finding percentages applying percentage increase and decrease Solutions at the end.

This resource is designed to give pupils much-needed practice on where points move after a transformation, for example: Where does the point (2,4) on the graph f(x) appear on the graph 3f(x)+1? The first questions are basic practice then pupils look at progressively more complicated graphs, including some practice finding the turning points and range and domain. Provided with solutions.

Many powerpoints, worksheets and a homework with mixed revision questions. Topic specific revision questions on the following topics, as both Powerpoints and PDFs. Circles Complete the Square Differentiation Functions Log Graphs M=tan theta Polynomials Straight Line Straight Line & Functions

Two write-on practice tests for Higher Maths pupils on the following topics: Test #1 - Straight Line, Functions, Quadratics, Surds, Indices Test #2 - Functions, Graphs, Polynomials Both can be done with a calculator. With full solutions

First homework covering Integration (polynomials and simple trig, area between curves) Revision (functions, circles, trig graphs, sequences) Edit: added second longer revision sheet covering polynomials trig calculus Full solutions included

A series of practice questions on the following converting between improper fractions and mixed numbers adding, subtracting, dividing and multiplying fractions converting between fractions, decimals and percentages Included with answers Edit 2022 -added More Fractions Powerpoint and PDF

A powerpoint with one question - exploring why going from 20 to 25 is not the same as going from 25 to 20.

A selection of questions (with full solutions) each asking 'how many ways' can something happen. Begins with simple problems that are small enough that they can be done without any special technique, then problems that require the 'multiplication principle' then on to permutations and combinations.

A fun lesson with shapes for pupils to cut out and reform. Everyone should have fun with this. Although even young children can understand dissection it hides complicated mathematics in geometry in proof. The dissections to try here are: - A rectangle into a square with one cut - A vase into a square - An equilateral triangle into a square - A 8 by 8 square into a 13 by 5 rectangle (!) - A couple of miscellaneous shapes - An approximate dissection of a circle into a square

This resource is designed to give pupils much-needed practice on where points move after a transformation, for example: Where does the point (2,4) on the graph f(x) appear on the graph 3f(x)+1? The first questions are basic practice then pupils look at progressively more complicated graphs, including some practice finding the turning points and range and domain. Provided with solutions.

Includes - converting between fractions, decimals, and percentages - ordering a mixed list of all three - equivalent fractions - adding fractions - mixed numbers and improper fractions Solutions included.

Four sets of practice questions. Includes: - determining if numbers are prime (and odd or square numbers) - multiples and least common multiples - factors and highest common factor Solutions included

This will introduce the topics of 3D volume and surface area, and also provide some challenging extension questions. A set of four worksheets on - Basic Skills (rounding, 2D perimeter and area, 3D volume and surface area) - Problems (real life problems involving volume and surface area of cuboids, cylinders, cones and spheres) - Units (converting between e.g. square metres and square centimetres) - Extensions to the Problems (revisiting the problems with converting units and more in-depth calculations) All provided with solutions.

A series of four worksheets to give some background algebra, do plenty of examples finding a limit, then for advanced pupils go on to find a general formula for a linear sequence. If you follow this through you will be able to instantly work out the value of the 50th term of u_n+1 = 0.4 u_n +3 (for example). The four worksheets are: - Indices (practice on this) - Algebra (rearranging formula) - Sequences (standard questions on finding limits, and graphing the results) - Investigation (putting it all together to get a general formula) All provided with full solutions.

A rare chance to see the first ever use of an equals sign "for what could be more equal than two parallel lines" and therefore the first ever equation. Pupils can read the Olde English, translate it into modern equations, then solve them. The first two are linear, the remaining four quadratic. Provided with full solutions.

This is to introduce pupils to decimals, using a context they are probably already familiar with (the time to run the 100 metres). Pupils work in pairs to complete some exercises looking up times, then get familiar with a stopwatch, then compare some decimal times.

The key to exam technique in mathematics is to solve each problem multiple times, using independent methods. You also want an independent check. Mathematicians hate to get things wrong! This presentation and activities will help your students from making mistakes.

A presentation and questions for pupils to consider what makes maths problems hard? They will then be better equipped to solve (and create) their own problems. The main way that problems are made more difficult are: - Make the numbers harder - Repeated application - Difficult vocabulary - Extra operation at start or end - Reverse the problem - Hide information in a story - Extraneous information

An interactive activity teaching pupils a few simple memory techniques
