If everyone has to keep two metres apart, how many people can you fit in a room?
This is a series of five challenges, each involving a room more difficult than the one before. Although it is not obvious to begin with, pupils will need to use Pythagoras to check that their people are all at least two metres apart.
Full solutions included.
A series of worksheets revising negative numbers.
- addition and subtraction
- subtracting negative numbers
- multiplying and dividing
- all operations, with fractions and decimals

Tired of BODMAS? Try some exciting challenges!
The first involves solving some problems and getting some letters, unscrambling them to find a city. Then you can make up your own.
The second is dome tricky expressions.
The third explores and unusual relationship between squares and cubes, which only works if you get your BODMAS correct.
A series of worksheets with practice questions on topics in the Advanced Higher Mechanics Course:
- Centre of Mass, Energy, Freefall, Gravity, Momentum, Projectiles, Vectors, Work Energy & Power, Vectors Closest Approach, Circular Motion (including notes), SHM (including notes), mix of SUVAT/Kinetmatics/Vectors
All with full solutions

A Power Point showing the most common 3D objects (technically 'shapes' refers to 2D, and 'objects' to 3D).
Useful for an introduction or for revision, and in getting the correct vocabulary
A fun activity to do alone or in pairs. Tests simple negative number skills (adding, subtracting, multiplying, dividing). Solution provided.
Based on an original by eam_larkin.
A mixed collection of questions covering many major topics of National 5 of GCSE Maths, all with a fun theme of Colin the Caterpillar!
Topics covered are:
Indices, fractions, volume, quadratics, scattergraph, statistics, percentages
Provided with full solutions.
Some resources to help understand the normal approximation to a binomial distribution.
A Powerpoint investigating when a Binomial distribution is close to a normal distribution, and also a video commentary of the Powerpoint.
We find that if the sample size is too small (or too skewed) then the normal approximation is good. Specifically, we want np>5 and nq>5.
A couple of worked solutions to example problems, in video form
Three standard questions testing pupils can correctly use the Wilxocon test, for determining if there is a difference between two sets of data. There are also two extension questions.
Provided with full solutions.
This is a set of six puzzles presented as large scale Power Points. I used them as colour A3 posters for a monthly maths competition.
Although they are challenging, they can all be solved using standard techniques.
Full solutions included.
Edit: added two more puzzles
A six-page worksheet with hundreds of questions broken down into topics, with a key rule followed by practice questions. It starts simple with positive indices then covers all other areas. Topics are:
- multiplying and dividing
- powers of powers
- numbers in brackets
- numbers and letters
- to the power zero and one
- negative powers
- square roots
- fractional powers
- fractional negative powers
Provided with answers in the same document.
I wrote this as I couldn’t find any other resource that takes pupils slowly through all the different types of question.
Edit: added Indices Summary Powerpoint/PDF which I print out to give to pupils.
