The series of worked examples look at factorising and its uses. The examples address the ability to simplify algebraic fractions by factorising. There are then several questions for the students to then answer.

A series of slides which help students learn as a class their multiplcation tables. A teacher can jump to a particular times table for students to watch has the times tables pop up when directed. Also there is a final slide which I've found useful for some students.

Snap or Pairs Here is a printable set of cards which can be used for one of two games. Snap The 54 cards are shuffled and divided equally between two students. Students then turn the cards up one at a time and work out the multiplication (or division) on that card. If that card matches the card on top of another player’s pile, the player who says “snap” first wins the pile of cards. The winner is the person who ends up with the entire pile of cards. Or if you choose to end the game earlier, the player with the most cards. Pairs Alternatively, all 54 cards are placed face down. Players then take it in turns to turn over two cards and work out the value for each card. If the two cards have matching answers the player puts the two cards in front of them as winning cards. This process is continued until all cards have been matched. The winner of the game is the person with the most cards in front of them.

This spreadsheet is set up to produce nine questions for students to answer on a variety of foundation topics. The spreadsheet also generates the answers. To generate a new list simply alter week 1 for week 2 etc and a new sheet is generated. That is the numbers are replaced or a different algebraic expression is generated. The topics on this sheet include: Dividing into a given ratio Multiplying fractions together nth term of a linear sequence collection of like terms solving simple equations decimal conversions metric conversions decimal multiplication

This spreadsheet will generate infinite worksheets for percentage questions. The spreadsheet will also provide the answers. Once the sheet is generated print the sheet and print the answers. Then change the worksheet number to 2 or 3, extra and watch a completely new worksheet get generated. Alternatively the spreadsheet can be projected onto the board and students answer from the board. Then at an appropriate time the answers can be shown by changing the column hiding the answers back to black font.

This spreadsheet will generate infinite worksheets for either linear sequences or quadratic sequences. The spreadsheet will also provide the answers. Once the sheet is generated print the sheet. The cover the answers and send the font to white (this hides the answers) print this sheet. Repeat for newly generated worksheets. Alternatively the spreadsheet can be projected onto the board and students answer from the board. Then at an appropriate time the answers can be shown by changing the column hiding the answers back to black font.

This lesson teaches students, through worked examples, how we construct equations. The lessons quickly moves onto solving the constructed equations. A worksheet is also provided which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. I usually teach this lesson after a series of lessons on solving equations. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/introduction-to-solving-equations-11225938

These festive worksheets and small PowerPoint can be used to keep students at GCSE level motivated in the run up to Christmas.

Give your classroom a festive look this December. The two advent calendars are designed to be displayed around the classroom in the run up to the Christmas holiday, or as set pieces of work each day. Students can search the classroom walls for the question of the day and answer the question on their sheet. Ideal as a starter or a good conclusion to the lesson. Questions range from Algebra, number work, fractions, decimals, ratio and much more. There are two calendars which can be mixed and matched as you require. Excellent resource to include a little bit of festive fun and revision.

This lesson revises the formula required for area and circumference of a circle. The lesson also includes revision on the ability to find the area of a sector or an arc length.

This set of exercises can either be used as a starter during the last two weeks of term or all together as a lesson piece. Designed with a Christmas feel, the task involves students either creating mathematical equations or using the process of elimination to find the numerical values attached to each of the Christmas pictures presented. The material is useful for either KS2 or KS3 students, however GCSE foundation students would also have fun with this material.

This lesson and worksheet teaches students, through worked examples, how to work out missing angles on a straight line by calculation. This Powerpoint is used for students who struggle with Mathematics or as an introduction for younger students. The worksheet also has an answer sheet provided. I have updated the background of the slides to be more user friendly for students with dyslexia. Many more lessons available in the shop https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/sjcooper

This lesson and worksheet teaches students, through worked examples, how to work out missing angles when drawn around a point by calculation.

This lesson has a series of worked examples showing students how to solve more complicated linear equations and also quadratics. The lesson has been used in the past for year 12 students in September. However it can also be used for the more complicated questions required in year 11 work.

This Powerpoint can be used over approximately three lessons. The lessons introduce the knowledge of the surd. The understanding of simplifying a surd or an arrangement using surds and then concludes with the more complicated surd questions we see in the new GCSE structure. The Powerpoint is accompanied with two worksheets and answers, which can be used in class or as a piece of homework.

These worksheets allow students to have multiple attempts at converting fractions into percentages or decimals or vice versa. The additional worksheets also allow students to answer questions on converting cm to m or mm, m to km or cm, etc…

This revision lesson looks at error bounds at the higher level. Through worked examples and questions for the students to answer, students are able to recap this topic before their official examination.

These 15 worksheets give the students multiple attempts to either find the equivalent fractions or work out the fraction of a quantity without the use of a calculator.

This Powerpoint consists of a variety of worked examples which demonstrate how we can calculate the mean. I use this lesson with students who have probably met the topic before but require a revisit to the topic. I usually use this lesson before I introduce student to the "fx" column and therefore questions involving the frequency table.

Circle Theorems revision is a PowerPoint presentation which can be used over two lessons or more. The lesson starts with the six theorems required at GCSE followed by a series of examples and questions for the students to attempt.
