Each set comes with Answers Basic arithmetic Geometry Algebra More!

Hi all, This is a document of 31 slides of starters. The starters are aimed for Year 7 and Year 8, but could also be used for some high aiming Year 6 students. The tasks range from match up tasks, to wring their own sentences incorporating key literary techniques. Each task has answers, (except the 2 open tasks which give space for class discussion). These work great for starters but also they’ll work nicely as a retrieval task at the end of the lesson.

Hi all! This is a set of starter tasks for years 9 - 11. They have varying difficulty so you may find that certain sets of starters are more appropriate to the levels of you respective classes. This starter includes: Geometry questions Algebraic questions (notation/ double variables) Line-graph questions Basic arithmetic Problem Solving Quick fire starter questions (towards the end of the starter) ANSWERS ALL INCLUDED. This can be used as a starter task and ‘exit ticket’ to the lesson or perhaps a homework booklet you send the students home with each week or over the holidays. Hope this id useful! (49 slides).

For the 9-1 GCSE Spec. This resource looks at a more ‘unique’ breakdown of question 4. Before looking at an example, the powerpoint looks at the two features of the mark scheme (AO3/AO4) and some of the potential issues posed for students. The powerpoint then looks into understanding the question outside of literature so the students can better see how the question looks as a ‘skeleton’. This answer is then analysed to see why we should incorporate certain habits in writing question 4 and why it gives us marks. Originally, this was used for private tutoring of a year 11 covid student aiming for a grade 5, but it has been adapted to facilitate all grades. I would recommend this to be sent home with kids, or equally going through it in after school revision sessions. Perhaps even as a ‘longer’ retrieval task to make even more notes, complimentary to your teaching style or their own notes to better understand. Feel free to download and edit where you find necessary!

Hi again! This is some GCSE retrieval questions for George Orwell’s Animal Farm.*This is applicable for all examboards. *This resource includes: Finish the quotation + quotation analysis Key scene analysis/ discussion. Chronology/Content questions BONUS: English language retrieval questions for OCR (however the answers can obviously be adapted for any exam board). I would recommend this being used as a starter task to open the lessons on animal farm, or equally treating this as a revision pack that you send out/print out for students. Of course though, use it how you see fit!

Hello all! This is another one of my Crash course series for Romeo and Juliet. Originally, this was used for tutoring of the OCR exam board but it is accessible for AQA and other exam boards focusing on R+J. This particular source looks at matching up key scenes, also some analysis of 2 key scenes (higher level analysis for 7, 8s and 9s) but still useful for all grade capabilities! Then some retrieval mind maps with the key techniques Shakespeare uses. One for students to have a go for at themselves, the second has potential answers and interpretations for them ponder upon. I hope this is useful!!:)

Hello all! This resource is useful to students studying George Orwell’s Animal Farm as a literary text, regardless of exam boards. This activity is more open-ended, behaving in a way similar to the extended questions sat during the exam, which require interpretation. This resource includes: Analysis questions relating to the 3 pigs (Napoleon, Snowball and Squealer). A high level response of quotation analysis. An open-ended statement for evaluation (Theme of totalitarianism). A quotation analysis task at the end. I would recommend using this to encourage students to embed those quotations in their longer answers, as well as helping them understand the importance of analysis! Hope it helps!

Hello again! This is an algebra introduction lesson or lessons. It includes the basics of what algebra is including the key words associated with it (variables etc). It introduces algebraic notation, explaining in words what each means, and then moves onto explaining algebraic equations, learning about what it means to do the inverse. Throughout the slides there are various tasks for the students to complete, thus ensuring they have understood that new set of information. I hope this works well for your classes!

Hi all! This is a ‘smaller resource’ which looks at explaining how to deal with negatives in equations. It looks at rules when we divide, multiply, add and subtract negatives with positives or with negative themselves. It also look at understanding the size/value of negative numbers (who is smaller/bigger), with integers and non-integers. There are many activities scattered through the lesson for the students. There are also explanations for WHY the rules work. For example explaining, why - 3 x - 3 = 9, but the rules are at the top in bold, which is what the students should primarily focus on. I hope this helps, feel free to add and edit slides to make it appropriate for your classes!:)

Hello all! This resource is a lesson for bidmas/bodmas. It includes an explanation of what BODMAS/BIDMAS is, as well as what the acronym means when we apply it to certain equations. With various activities throughout the lesson, this ppt could e split into multiple lessons, but also pays attention to the BI/BO, as they are important skills for multiple maths topics. Hopefully you find this helpful for introducing this for your students, especially those who may feel weaker in their arithmetic skills!

Hi all! This was originally used in tutoring but it serves well for Year ten and eleven students who need to complete retrieval on Romeo and Juliet. There are several sets of retrieval questions, including answers, and ‘finish the quotation’ activities. The answers expand further for students who are looking for 7, 8 9 grades. There are some questions without answers. these are open-ended so depending on your teaching style you may decide to have the students write a few notes of their views on that passage or maybe have it as a debate - well and truly up to you! I have used these tasks for AQA and OCR but please recognise there are some OCR English Language Based questions in there as well - you can alter the questions to your english lang exam board! (There’s only a few) :)

Hi all! This resource includes: A breakdown of questions 1, 2 and 4 - no 3 because it acts in a similar way to Q2, but PPT does look at structural techniques. Paper- based breakdown. Questions courtesy of AQA - NOT MY PROPERTY. Breakdown on how to analyse texts. Breakdown on the meaning of evaluation for Question 4. I would recommend using this alongside my basic breakdown and teaching this in a series of sessions. That can either be more heavily or just skimming through the ppt for those key analysis skills particular to Y11.
