A Powerpoint for KS3 Maths pupils covering a full lesson or lessons on scatter graphs and correlation. Types of correlation (positive and negative), drawing scattergraphs and plotting and interpreting lines of best fit are all included within this resource as well as questions and extension activities. Could be used as a whole lesson to teach the topic to pupils or as a revision activity.

An extensive powerpoint featuring a selection of exam questions (and answers) for the KS3 Maths syllabus. Ideal for a revision lesson or as a test/assessment activity. Topics covered include: percentages, fractions, ratios, substitution, probability, area and volume of 2-D and 3-D shapes, factorising, substitution, expanding brackets, powers and indices, averages, angles and straight line graphs.

This is an excellent Powerpoint covering all the topics in Percentages at KS3 including converting between fractions, decimals and percentages, finding a percentage of an amount, the unitary method and percentage increase/decrease. Suitable for a revision session (exam practice), a summative test for students and to check and refresh their prior knowledge of percentages…

In this highly interactive group task students are encouraged to move around the classroom to find a fellow student who can tell them the definition of one of the 16 words on their worksheet which all relate to the KS3 Maths syllabus (mode, equation, perimeter etc.). This task encourages mathematical discussion and for pupils to become familiar with terminology used on the course as well as promoting literacy and cross-curricular links. This could be used as a starter activity in the lesson to engage pupils or as part of a stand-alone revision lesson reinforcing pupils’ knowledge of key words used throughout KS3 Maths.

A really useful resource which is tests KS3 pupils on their understanding of mode, median, mean and range. This could also be used as a summative test of pupils’ knowledge or as a homework/revision task and is suitable for GCSE foundation students as well.

A worksheet which includes 10 questions each on percentage increase and decrease. This resource is mainly suitable for KS3 students, although it may also benefit GCSE Foundation students. As well as increasing or decreasing a number by a certain percentage, worded questions involving VAT are also included. This resource has multiple applications: it could be useful as a check of the prior knowledge of students or to check their understanding of what has been taught as a summative test or included as the main activity within a lesson.

A comprehensive set of GCSE (foundation and higher) exam questions on relative frequency. Other topics covered include basic probability and scatter graphs. These could be used in a lesson or revision sessions and are also useful for students to take home and practice by themselves.

An excellent revision resource, this is a powerpoint of a set of exam questions on Quadratic Equations for GCSE Higher students. Topics covered include factorising, solving quadratic equations, the quadratic formula, completing the square, trial and improvement and algebraic fractions. All answers are included in the Powerpoint.

An extremely useful set of KS3 starters on Probability and Handling Data. Topics covered include: basic probability, probability of an event, mean, median, mode and range, averages from a table and Pictograms. These are excellent to begin a lesson with or to check prior knowledge of a topic or as plenaries.

A handy set of starters to do with topics involved in KS3 Geometry: angles, volume of 3-D shapes, constructing angles, transformations, properties of shapes and angle laws. These are excellent to start a lesson off, as ‘settlers’ to get students on task and also to test prior knowledge of a topic.

This is a very useful resource with starters on KS3 fraction topics: finding fraction of an amount, converting between fractions, decimals and percentages, equivalent fractions, mixed numbers, improper fractions and HCF/LCM. These are useful to introduce a topic or to act as ‘settlers’ to get pupils on task when they enter the classroom.

This excellent Powerpoint contains a whole lesson for pupils on finding the area and perimeter of 2-D shapes such as squares, rectangles and triangles. It also contains plenty of questions for pupils to attempt including standard, skill-based questions and extension questions which challenge the students to think laterally. Equally suitable for KS3 and GCSE Maths Foundation Groups.

An excellent and extensive Powerpoint which teaches students how to draw and interpret Pie Charts given a set of data. The Powerpoint also teaches the importance of pie charts in a real life context and encourages discussions. There are solid links with ratio, fractions and proportion. The Powerpoint also includes plenty of questions for students to attempt, including extension activities for more able students.

This resource is a huge glossary of terms which are used in the Child Acquisition of Language unit of A Level English Language. It is an invaluable revision resource which can be kept for students for reference for study throughout the course and is essential exam preparation. It contains sections relating to theories of how children learn language, how they write and communicate with others. It is excellent in helping students get to grip with the technical terms and terminology used in the course and will help them to write more informed answers to exam questions.

A Powerpoint for KS3 and GCSE Foundation Students which helps them to recognise and draw nets of 3-D shapes (including Cubes, Cuboids and Triangular Based Prisms). There is sufficient material in the Powerpoint to cover a whole lesson. This could be used as the lesson before teaching students how to work out the surface area of 3-D shapes. In this resource, the pupils are taught how to recognise 3-D shapes before being scaffolded through how to draw them with worked examples of how to draw cuboids and cubes. There are questions for students to complete. The Powerpoint is quite interactive and there is also a strong cross-curricular link with Literacy.

This is a Powerpoint teaching students how to find the interior and exterior angles of a polygon. It is equally suitable for KS3 and GCSE Foundation Maths students. There is sufficient material in the Powerpoint for at least 1 lesson, possibly 2 depending on how fast your class covers the content. The powerpoint shows pupils how to work out the interior and exterior angles of a polygon, firstly by providing them with key terms to learn, then by allowing them to investigate the link between the sum of the interior angles in a shape and the number of sides it has, before linking that to the exterior angle of a polygon. Other topics covered by this Powerpoint include: properties of shape, angle laws, generalising and substitution.

A Powerpoint on writing equations and formulae for KS3 and GCSE Foundation Maths Students. The Powerpoint contains enough material for a whole lesson. As well as showing pupils how to write expressions and formulae, this Powerpoint also covers how to substitute numbers into formulae, with real-life worked examples provided. Plenty of questions are included for pupils to attempt with an extension of solving equations to test more able pupils.

A comprehensive Powerpoint for a whole lesson on constructing and solving linear equations for KS3 and GCSE foundation groups. Depending on the ability of the class, there is enough material on the Powerpoint for a couple of lessons if pupils need to be taken through the content more gradually. In the Powerpoint, pupils are introduced to the meaning of key words such as co-efficient, linear and equation, shown how to solve equations using the balance method and also how to construct and solve a linear equation when given information. There are plenty of worked examples and questions for pupils to attempt.

A whole lesson on standard form for more able KS3 maths groups and GCSE classes. Pupils are taught the definition of standard form, how to express numbers in standard form and how to evaluate standard form expressions. The laws of indices are also recapped. In this lesson there is a strong emphasis on mathematical notation and precision.
