Here is a powerpoint I used with my Year 11 tutees to revise with them their P2 exam (part of the AQA Science Double Award). This is part 7 of 10 powerpoints I used - look out for the others!
All content is linked directly to the AQA specification!
This is the second of 17 Mathematics sheets in the 'Raymond&'s Rovers&'; series of my Mathematics Sheets. I use this sheets with Year 11s for revision purposes.
Questions 1-5 are aimed at Foundation Tier & Questions 6-10 are aimed at Higher Tier

KS4 Vocabulary Here is a revision aid I put together for my Year 11 tutees last year. It was aimed at helping them understand the language of their Mathematics exam; what are they actually asking you to do?!
Here is an Individual Target Tracker sheet I stick into the front of my student's ex. books.
I get my classes to regularly set themselves targets based on my markings and feedback I put in their books.
I then sign off their targets once they have evidence to prove where they have met them.
I reward my classes when they have reached a target they have set themselves.
KS2/ KS3 Worksheet. I love this! I was Tweeted a link to the following site:

This is the Vedic Square. A 9 by 9 grid that reveals patterns from the sums of the mutiplications of the numbers. Students work through the w/sheet that I have created based on the website's activity and produce all the different Vedic patterns for each digit from 1-9. I can&'t wait to use this...
UPDATED to include completed grids
Here is a powerpoint I used with my Year 11 tutees to revise with them their P2 exam (part of the AQA Science Double Award). This is part 4 of 10 powerpoints I used - look out for the others!

Here is an interactive Buzzer I made using the 'Family Fortunes' wrong answer sound clip. There is also a link to a multiple buzzer I found on the web which I use for team games in class with a student from each team up at the IWB answering questions. I also use this for the &'around the world&'; activity I run in class (see my blog for more info http://mrcollinsreflectivejournal.blogspot.com)
Here is the ninth of the 'Collins City' revision table sheets I use with my Year 11s as GCSE revision. Look out for the other 'Collins City' sheets and the 'Raymond Rovers' sheets.
Questions 1-5 are aimed at Foundation Tier
Questions 6-10 are aimed at Higher Tier
This bundle includes: Solving Equations (Unknowns on Both Sides), Solving Equations (Including Brackets &/or Fractions) & Evaluating Indices.
An engaging activity for students to consolidate their learning. Students answer the questions on the sheet and then, once they have the answer, colour in the corresponding section of the large grid to create a pattern. All details are fully explained in the resource itself, with lots of additional ideas as to how to get the best out of the resource, including: extension activities, challenge questions and suggested variations on the activity. All answers included
This is a 'Connect Thoughts' board. The task is played like the 'Connect 4' game where the class choose any 4 tasks to complete in a row. The rows of questions are leveled and is a great way to differentiate, I have found.
This notebook contains a whole lesson/number of lessons on using algebra to prove statements such as the sum of three consecutive numbers being a multiple of 6.
Starter activity includes writing expressions for certain numbers as well as expanding and simplifying brackets.
Lots of examples and investigative tasks for students to attempt. Questions to give to your students and plenary activities to review their learning.
2 Logic Problem puzzles themed around Christmas and Easter. Word and Excel documents included so you can create your own Logic Problems as well as using the ones included here. All answers included too (in the Excel files)
2 sets of engaging comics containing the constructions needed at KS3 and KS4. The first comic contains perpendicular line and angle constructions; the second contains the triangle constructions (SSS, SAS, ASA). Students follow the instructions on the comics to complete their constructions leaving you time to help those students that require a bit more support. There is a triangle constructions worksheet included, as well as an index in the teacher instructions to easily find the construction you are teaching.

This is my 'takeaway homework' menu I give to my students.
The pdf contains a ready to print version of the menu to give straight to students. The idea is that they choose any task to complete for their homework from the menu. I set these homeworks over a half term and students have to earn a set amount of 'chillies' in these weeks.
On the ppt file I have an editable version of the menu for you to change my name etc to suit your students - this can then be printed as above. I also have many examples of work from my students to use for inspiration as to what can be created.
There are also some display logos and ideas from my current display board in the word doc.
See my blogs below for more details!

I love this approach to homework and so do my students.
A 39 page resource of the revision cards/activities I have used with my classes when finishing topics or when revising for exams. Included in the resource are templates for you/your students to create your own revision cards. There are over 10 different revision cards to create/use. I have also provided examples/pictures of cards I have made, and some they have created too! All instructions to create each card are included in the resource.

A set of 100+ Plenary questions/tasks to use in your Mathematics lessons. Print, cut up and laminate each page of this resource before hole punching and binding the ‘sticks’ together for plenty of use in your lessons. Included in the resource, in addition to the 100+ questions/tasks are blank ‘sticks’ for you to create your own questions/tasks, plus suggestions as to how best use this resource with your students.
