Two homeworks and a revision sheet on basic numeracy for National 4 Maths or National 4 Lifeskills Covers things like: decimals, money, fractions, ratio

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.

A series of simple questions that I used over the Summer Holidays to prepare pupils for Higher Mathematics. Topics include - mixed arithmetic, negatives, algebra, fractions, algebra, surds, trigonometry, notation, indices, and some more complicated algebra

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

An Excel simulator does twenty samples each flipping a fair coin one hundred times. Each sample generates a confidence interval for the mean number of heads. On average, 19 out of the 20 confidence intervals will include the true mean of 50 heads, This simulation can be run many times (by pressing F9) and each time a new graph visually updates, showing how confidence intervals work. The number of flips and the probabilities can all be changed too.

Mixed percentage questions, on these topics - percentage change - repeated percentage increase or decrease - reverse percentage

This is a free-standing resource on multiplying whole numbers It involves multiplications like 5 x 11 up to things like 3 x 11 x 11 It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included.

Simple questions testing multiplication and division, starting easy then including decimals. Now with answers on the Power Point. See the (Premium) Numeracy Starter Questions #2 for more

This is a free-standing resource on multiplication (and addition) of decimals It involves multiplications like 4 x 0.64 up to things like 11 x 1.25 It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution. Full solutions included. [Edit - following a comment by angelpax I've fixed the phrase at the end]

A simple worksheet with many questions such as 'reduce £70 by 20%'

Two sets of worksheets with solutions on - writing numbers in words - adding and subtracting whole numbers - time intervals and 24 hour time - order of operations (BODMAS) - multiplication and division by e.g. 10, 200, 3000 - long multiplication - rounding with significant figures

Mixed resources covering the difficult topic of proof (contrapositive, proof by induction, direct proof and counterexample). Includes proof by induction questions, a Powerpoint with slides of questions, and a bank of other questions.

A set of 20 questions in a loop where pupils have to convert to and from Scientific Notation. Print out all 20 in A4 and put them up around the classroom (or outdoors). Give pupils a letter A-T to start on then challenge them to complete the chain of letters by matching up numbers in normal and scientific form.

Shed Loads of Practice (SLOP) is about pupils solving a huge number of easy questions quickly to gain fluency. This is an Excel workbook that generates questions on the following topics. Some are basic numeracy some National 5 / GCSE or Higher Maths level. Negative and Positive Numbers Odd and Even Numbers Combining like terms Expanding brackets Percentages finding the multiplier Trig standard values Scale Factor Indices Print it out and give pupils just a few minutes to fill them all in.

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

A Powerpoint (or PDF) of algebra problems that involve ages. These are hard enough that they need the equations to be written out in full. Some need simultaneous equations to solve. Solutions given.

Pupils add fractions by shading squares. Simple at first, but gradually they build up to understanding why for example 1/2 + 1/3 = 5/6 Good for lower ability classes who benefit from a visual representation

Four sets of simple questions for pupils to practice basic skills with fractions, percentages and decimals. Good for revision or consolidation. 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.

This is a series of simple questions to give pupils practice in estimating a variety of different units in real life circumstances. The questions are straightforward but should produce a good basis of discussion. There is estimation in a variety of units and also some measuring. Full solutions included.
