The idea of this game is for students to put the numbers 1-15 in their exercise book, and write the number 1 on line 1 and the number 1000 on line 15. They are then revealed numbers one by one, and their aim is to try and fit all the numbers onto the number line in a chronological order. Once this process is complete you can ask the class who obtained the largest number of correctly ordered numbers.
You can change the maximum number to something greater i.e. ‘10000’ or something smaller i.e. ‘300’. Also due to this being an excel worksheet generator there are an infinite number of answers that can be available.
This is a great game to end the lesson with and always engages students.

Whenever I am doing a relay race I always find it quite monotonous that students are constantly getting me to check their answers during a lesson. Therefore, I’ve devised a spreadsheet to enable me to facilitate learning of questions rather than constantly spending the lesson to check if 100 answers are correct. Also this is good at limiting cheating when answers just become chinese whispers.
Basically you input the questions’ answers at the bottom of the spreadsheet and then click hide. Students then use your keyboard to input there answers for individual or sets of questions and if there answer is correct the cell will be hilighted in green. This gives a great way for students and teachers alike to monitor their progress throughout the answer. Beware you may need to set out some rules about how often they can input answers to prevent a queue from forming at the computer.

This involves finding the angles within a hexagon, and all the shapes within this hexagon. This worksheet also involves algebra to calculate angles, for examples some of the angles are defined as ‘h+?’, where ‘?’ is an integer. Also included is an exterior angle extension

The aim of this timer ‘game’ on excel is to calm students down when they have come into the classroom in a hyperactive manner, such as after break or lunchtime. It is a quick tool to use, but can be very benefitial in its effects on students’ behaviour and encouraging Mathematical minds in a competitive manner. Alternatively it can be used as a tool to get students to get a better feel of ‘time’ by guessing how many seconds have elapsed over a given period of time.
The aim is you get students to rest their head on the desks and you start and stop a timer provided for you on excel. This timer can be usefully hidden from prying eyes. After a number of seconds, or perhaps minutes (if your class is particularly lively), teachers can then obtain guesses from the class. These times are then subsequently typed into a column within the spreadsheet, and can later be compared through the click of the button to the actual elapsed time. There are macro buttons for comparing the time. Firstly you can reveal the differences in time between their guess and the actual time, additionally you can click a button to reveal a winner.
This gets students to get a better feel for time, understanding the difference between seconds and minutes, ensuring a calm start to the lesson and gets students engaged in a competitive manner. Please review if you found helpful :D
This is a collection of 8 different resources and approximately 60 different Excel tabs. I use these as a premise for my starters with a mix of abilities from year 7-9. Each worksheet is differentiated, so you can give students varying sheets, or request they work from varying sections of the interactive whiteboard, whilst still providing them with the same answers. They foster a calm start to the lesson, and students always seem excited to learn when the lesson is started in this manner. The addition pyramids contain a self-check tool, so children can usefully self mark. The multiplication grid generator, includes an exciting ‘challenge’ sheet in which students have to work backwards to work out the row and column headers (using similiar skills to Sudoku). In addition to this the Cross number, and the times table grid excitingly contain a magic number extension. This involves students having to collate their answers, i.e. summing certain values, to obtain a magic numbers and perhaps win a small prize (sticker, or sweet, or just simple praise).

This is a bundle of 6 of my resources regarding angles!
5 documents are generators, which means at the click of any button you are able to generate a new worksheet. This provides a calm atmosphere in learning, familiarity in resources for students and can demonstrate progress over time.
3 of these documents are worksheet generators, which require students to find angles within polygons by viewing the polygons themselves. The easiest worksheet just regards triangles and straight lines. The medium worksheet involves quadrilaterals, simple algebra, and straight lines. Whereas the last worksheet involves a multitude of polygons. Each come with a supporting tab call a ‘cheat sheet’, containing an answer for every question listed on a separate bit of paper. These can be individually cut up and folded along the dotted line to act as supporting answers, You can use thesse at your discretion to support the least able, enabling these worksheets to be low access high challenge.
Furthermore, another of these documents also requires you to find missing angles and lengths within various polygons by using algebra. Helpfully there is are hints which can either be included, or not included on the sheet, as they are on the sheet’s extremities so can easily can be cut off.
Another worksheet regards angles, but this time they are entirely worded question. Testing students knowledge on exterior angles as well as interior angles this time.
Finally the last document is a powerpoint involving 5 videos of me hand drawing different circle theorems. Each of the videos are silent but supported by questioning on the screen. This has proved to be a very useful tool in maximising student engagement, and getting the students to come up with the questions and answers themselves whilst watching the video, whilst you are able to help individuals or manage behaviour as required. Each of the videos, has futher suggestion points, and each can be paused and resumed at a pace that suits your class.

This is an engaging, and interactive 5 slide Powerpoint presentation which I made involving cars moving across a cartoon screen.
You choose the slide you would like to test the students on and click ‘from current slide’, once the slideshow is full screen and the children are ready to view the animation you press the right arrow key and a ‘go’ symbol will drop from the top of the screen demonstrating the begininning of the process. Various cars will move from left to right, and right to left of the screen, with the aim for students to answer 5 questions such as:
What is the sum of all the wheels in this animation?
What is the difference in the number of cars going from left to right, in comparison to the cars going right to left
What fraction of cars are yellow?
What is the ratio of yellow, green and pink cars?
What percentage of the cars are orange?
To more challenging questions such as:
If 10% of wheels get punctured during a journey, what is the expected numbers of wheels to get punctured in this animation?
What is the expected probability of the car going from left to the right of the screen?
If a customer wants to choose one of these cars at random what is the probability that the car is yellow, give as a fraction?
What is the probability of a customer picking a yellow or a pink car, given as a percentage ?
What’s the probability of a customer picking an orange car?
The cars vary in colour, and starting time, which means the questions can be varied. Easy to edit the questions for yourself. If you found this resource useful please review. If you want more information see video!
This is a worksheet generator for nth term sequences. It generates linear sequences of increasing difficulty, including decimal sequences, decreasing sequences, and sequences that start on both positive and negative numbers.
There is also a tab for increasing difficulty quadratic sequences. Additionally, you can alternatively give students the ‘nth term rule’ and get them to generate the first few terms.

This is based on my free resource ‘angles within shapes’, and is a very useful generator. Comes with optional ‘hints’ which helps with differentiation. Increasing in difficulty. Been used sucessfully with many classes, including bottom set year 8 (whom of which a student managed to remember this topic within an exam scenario).
