A few years ago I wrote a set of notes for pupils and put them on my website. The notes were supposed to be written in a pupil-friendly way, and different to notes students might find in textbooks or elsewhere on the internet. I have converted the notes to PowerPoint slides so you can download them, adapt them if needed, use them in revision lessons or perhaps give your students a set to take home with them to help them prepare for exams. The chances are there will be a few mistakes here and there, so if you spot any please email me & I will correct them. Hope they are of use!
<p>Seven worksheets giving a basic introduction to algebraic proofs mainly involving odd and even numbers or multiples. Prove whether the result of adding or multiplying odd or even numbers is odd or even etc. Practise factorising, simplifying and multiplying out brackets. Use algebra to support and construct arguments.</p>

<p>**Solving equations to find the missing letters of the alphabet! **<br />
Suitable for the Algebra topic for KS2 children who need a challenge!<br />
Page 1 in the format ‘2x + 3 = 11’<br />
Page 2 is tricker and involves division with algebra.<br />
Could be split in half, with one half of the class on Page 1 and the other on page 2, then coming together at the end to reveal the whole alphabet. I also used this one-on-one with a tutee.</p>
<p><strong>ANSWERS INCLUDED</strong></p>
<p><strong>For Printed and Interactive Use!</strong><br />
Helpful comments embedded.<br />
Perfect for teachers and tutors.</p>
<p><strong>Dyselxia-friendly!</strong></p>
<ul>
<li>Sans serif font.</li>
<li>Font size 12 minimum</li>
<li>Clear spacing</li>
</ul>
<p>A fun way to solve algebra equations for children who are excelling with algebra. I actually used this with a Year 3 tutee (!) but this was very unusual. I would recommend it for Y4 and above definitely. Suitable for Y6 and even Y7 as a fun starter.<br />
Page 1 requires knowledge of solving 2-step algebra equations.<br />
Page 2 requires knowledge of dividing 3 digit numbers by 10 and using division in algebra.</p>

<p>Starter activity in PowerPoint involving solving simple algebraic problems.</p>
<p>There are 20 different questions of varying degrees of difficulty. All question slides have animated answers.</p>
<p>How to play<br />
Get students to draw a 3x3 grid in their books, then select 9 numbers between 1 and 20 from the larger grid (NO REPEATS).<br />
Select a student to answer a question (the answer is animated in when you next interact with the board) if they get it right, they get to cross off one of their numbers from their grid (any student with the same number can also cross off that number). Cross off all 9 and BINGO…they win. What do they win, you decide (I hand out pens sometimes or get the rest of the class to give a round of applause).</p>
<p>I’ve made it sound more complicated than it really is. This activity is great as a starter or as a plenary as well as testing prior knowledge.</p>
<p>Hope you like.</p>
<p>Worksheet with examples, differentiated questions of 10 in each block of red - easy, amber - middle and green - hard with extension section involving worded problems<br />
Topic - about collecting like terms to simplify an algebraic expression<br />
Answers are included</p>
<p>2 codebreaker activities on multiplying and dividing algebraic terms.<br />
1 multiplying and dividing terms including 1 variable.<br />
1 multiplying and dividing terms including more than 1 variable.</p>
<p>Getting students to understand that letters in equations are simply unknown numbers is the first step to successfully teaching algebra, without them stressing too much.</p>
These worksheets are linked to the Key Stage 2 curriculum and provide a range of differentiated algebra questions.<br /><br />
<br /><br />
These worksheets are also available individually for £2 each. Make a saving! Buy this bundle of three worksheets for £2.50!
<p>This lesson is for middle to high ability KS4 students. It teaches them how to use algebra to solve probability problems where there is an unknown. This could involve solving a linear equation or deriving a quadratic equation from a tree diagram and solving it.</p>
<p>The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter, an example and worked solutions to the questions on the worksheet.</p>
This power point presentation is an introduction to algebra. Children will learn key vocabulary like: expression, variable, symbol, value, equation and etc.<br />
The presentation comes with a warm up (missing number equations) activity, excellent teaching slides, which explain to your students how to write algebraic expressions. The pack also comes three differentiated worksheets (with answer sheet)<br />
It is suitable for children in Year 5, Year 6 and Year 7.<br />
My students enjoyed it!
