<p>Multiplying and dividing algebraic terms lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
<p>Expanding double brackets lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
Powerpoint - Adding and subtracting fractions with the same and different denominators. Differentiated RAG worksheet with varying levels of scaffolding. Received an Outstanding when observed using this lesson.
Variety of Powerpoints and domino activities. Use PP in conjunction with traffic light cards and mini whiteboards. Students work out correct order for Domino's to fit in and solve puzzle. I used these lessons when OFSTED came to our school and got extremely positive feedback from Jane Jones (OFSTED lead on maths) - ranges from Year 7 basic solving one step equations to GCSE solving bracket equations, or full scope for differentiation within lesson. Select whichever PP and dominoes boards fit your class/students. Each one gets progressively harder through puzzle.
Interactive lesson on square numbers, cube numbers and their roots. PPT saved in 2003 format - to use with RAG cards for AfL, print and cut out hexagons to fit in jigsaw in the correct orientation.
<p>Prime factor decomposition lesson leading to calculating HCF and LCM. Differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
<p>Ordering fractions lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
Interactive PPT using traffic light cards and teaching how to find Nth term for linear sequences and vice versa. Includes help worksheet and jigsaw where pupils have to line up the pieces to solve the puzzle by answering questions.
Full lesson ranging from introduction of squares and square roots to contextual problems including area scale factors. Used with a very low ability Y9 class who could all answer higher level questions at end. Print off puzzle and pieces and worksheets from PowerPoint slides
<p>Solving equations with unknowns on both sides lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
<p>Equivalent fraction lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
<p>Expanding brackets lesson differentiated for higher, middle and lower learners, with fluency reasoning and problem solving questions for each group.</p>
Graded worksheet with differentiated Pythagoras questions, ranging from 2D to 3D, real life and contectual examples. Was offered a job based on this lesson.
Great lesson for drawing out bearings and map scales - I have used this ion numerous schools - print out a Google map on A4 for your school and the surrounding area, then follow the instructions - 3 different differentiated routes to find the exact location. Feel free to swap my name for yours on the PP and sheet!

will randomly generate 18 questions across all the topics in Edexcel unit 1 (for the 3 year GCSE). Topics include:<br />
- Multiplying/dividing decimals<br />
- Rounding to d.p. and s.f.<br />
- Estimating<br />
- Prime factors including HCF and LCM<br />
- Index laws<br />
- Standard from inc. adding and multiplying<br />
- Surds<br />
I use as a starter for my Y9 top set to keep them practising the skills - it saves searching for new questions each lesson as it generates new questions each time, but can be used as revision for any GCSE class
Can be used as revision lesson or taught over a few lessons on:<br />
- naming polygons and calculating their internal angles<br />
- maps and scale drawings - measuring and calculating distances<br />
- using formulae<br />
Uses theme of Zombie apocalypse and having to use maths skills to survive.
