Check out my Foundation 50 quick questions resource too - 50 quick questions which can be shuffled, printed etc
Volume and surface area of cones, spheres and frustum.
Using real Askey ice-cream cones (2 types) as a 'prop' students answer 4 A/A* questions.
I also gave out Cornettos (other ice cream products are available!) for winning teams.
They were given text books and internet access only to research. They could also ask me 3 questions but they have to be in writing - there's space for them on the assessment sheet.
2D and 3D cards and suggested activities for whole class, groups, pairs or individuals. Perfect for AfL of names, properties, etc. and as a revision resource. An extra 8 extension cards are also included - mobius strip, frustum, torus, hemi-spere, elipse, semi-circle, concave kite and nonagon to promote discussion.
50 quick questions on a power point covering most of the GCSE Statistics foundation syllabus. Previously been downloaded over 2000 times with 4/5 star ratings.

Use with mini whiteboards, as little printed booklets, as a relay race - it’s up to you!
Set of cards to laminate with key maths terms on and 8 suggested group, paired and individual suggested activities how to use them.
Blank set to add your own too!
Great for improving learners’ literacy, oracy and auracy.
First thing I’m going to say is … Don’t cut the dotted lines - they should look like dominoes!
3 Sets of ‘Need to Know’ facts.
Great for revision, plenaries, starters or entrance tasks. All those facts that Foundation Maths learners need to know off by heart to help them achieve marks in their exams. Everthing from area, indices, averages, multiples etc
I get students to time themselves and see if they can improve their time! They can get quite competitive!

Blow this up to A3 and laminate. Then you or learners can write on it, blu tac pages to it, stick post-its on etc Bit of velcro and/or magnetic strips on the back and it can go on the wall or on desks.
A worksheet, plenary or entrance task to accompany the well-known circle song. Helps students to remember the formulae for area and circumference of a circle too.
A way for students to realise that learning has stages.
This can be used as a poster or activity to improve thinking, metacognition and pedagogical skills.
With just a few easily available resources you can make this clinometer to estimate the height of anything! Great to take outside and put trigonometry into practice!
Make this display as long as you like by printing additional sheets with the words removed - students are invited to add kites to the display - I'm going to have mine outside my room so that anyone can add to it as they go past. Quadrilaterals, kites
....taking you towards or away from your goals. Asking learners to reflect on whether or not their attitude or actions are suitable behaviours for learning.
