A four page pdf activity handbook which includes a range of activities (including colouring 'like terms' and completing algebra pyramids) designed to engage low ability KS3 students. Final challenge activity is an altered version of a mathsbox task on collecting like terms but with a literacy element added.<br /> <br /> Resource would also work with higher ability KS2.

<p>This Year 7 revision booklet is suitable for low and middle ability students and has a range of questions which cover elements of the following topics:<br /> Number skills e.g. addition, division etc.<br /> Analysing and displaying data e.g. pictograms, dual bar charts etc.<br /> Algebra e.g function machines, collecting like terms, finding the next term in a sequence and finding the nth term<br /> Line and angles e.g. angles on a straight line, angles in a triangle wtc.<br /> Decimals and measures e.g. converting ml to litres<br /> Probability<br /> Fractions and percentages - including percentage of amount<br /> Ratio and proportion<br /> Transformations e.g. reflection, scale factors etc.</p>

<p>A colour in activity aimed at Key Stage 3 L.A.P. and M.A.P. students which helps them recap on their understanding of angles in a straight line, angles round a point, angles in a triangle and angles in a quadrilateral. Students find the solution to the missing angle to navigate their way through the maze from start to finish.</p>

Low to middle ability KS3 test aimed at Year 7 students on the algebra topic of expressions, functions and formulae. This test can be used as a start and end of unit baseline test to show students progress on this topic area.<br /> <br /> This baseline/end of unit test includes questions around the topics of function machines as well as simplifying expressions.<br /> <br /> The final page of this test has space for pupil self reflection on the topic which can be used by the teacher to evaluate students own opinions on their subject knowledge and confidence on this topic.

A PPT aimed at middle ability Key Stage 3 (Year 7 students) which serves as an introduction to simplifying expressions. <br /> <br /> Tasks include;<br /> * an algebra story designed to engage students and allow them to develop and understanding of how to organise letters and numbers using simple expressions<br /> * examples of how to simplify expressions by highlighting like terms <br /> * algebraic pyramids. <br /> * 'magic squares'. <br /> <br /> The PPT also includes lesson outcomes at the start of the PPT and a plenary/self review slide at the end on the topic.

Students work to solve a crime based on the theme of Children in Need. Students must use their maths skills to break a number of codes to reveal clues to the identity of a thief who stole a schools fundraising for the Children in Need charity. <br /> <br /> To solve the clues students must use addition, division and algebra.<br /> <br /> Resource aimed at low ability Year 7 students who have been introduced to algebra including expanding brackets and finding the value of x. Addition and division tasks used to allow students to recap on previous learning in this area and develop further confidence in solving these problems.
