High quality STEM resources for 7 to 18 year old learners and a number of key resources to support classroom and whole-school pedagogy. The resource "Metacogs" is a unique resource supported by the latest research. There is also extensive use of Blooms and SOLO taxonomy behind many of the resources. If you download any resource that could be improved then please leave specific feedback and I will endeavour to improve them further.

Mathematics of Coordinates II - L4 Maps This is a cross-curricular lesson looking at finding and mapping 4-figure grid references. It is highly active and fun-based turning your classroom into a hunt for treasure. View the resource for full instructions. There is room for some extension work to look at L5 6-figure grid references and all activities are supported by my Numeracy Cards. Please leave comments and let me know how it goes. You can follow me on twitter @boostprogress.

Edexcel GCSE Mathematics Grade C/D Revision

This is a set of lessons based around the 'Edexcel GCSE Mathematics A Linear Higher student book'. You do really need the book! This allows students to explore key words in each chapter - looking at challenge, definisitions and connections. Then students progress to the Big6 challenges which are 6 key areas/skills that must understand. Students should also explain their thinking behind solutions and answers. Every set of three lessons is followed by a mini-assessment.

Mathematics of Cubes and Cuboids

This is the stem of one or two lessons for L4+students exploring 3D cubes and cuboids. There are opportunities for investigations and questions from these activities, and even a potential science link to surface area of biological structures. L5+ students could certainly build the cuboid skyscrapers and graph relationship between cubes used and total faces, or even use it for number patterns. The cubes also support cubed numbers or cubic volume work really well to visualise and work out the cubes of numbers 1 to 4.

Graphology of bar charts - L4+

A fantastic activity for maths or science focused around making simple paper helicopters and collecting data on how quickly they fall. This lesson was observed by OFSTED on the last lesson of a two day inspection with a lower-ability math group and achieved a 2 judgement. You can extend the activity to add stretch and challenge. Still suitable for L4 - L6 applications or a fun method of GCSE teaching or revision. As always follow on @Boostprogress and leave feedback.

Mathematics of Words II - Simplification

The second lesson now looking at simplification of expressions using single, double and mixed expressions. Plenty of diffentiation for progression in pupil questions. Appropriate for L4+ students and can be supported by scrabble-based card sort. Please provide any suggestions and remember this is only the basic lesson outline and does not include rich questioning or pupil analysis of the cognitive challenge of individual expressions.

Mathematics of Negative Numbers

A series of resources for building two or three lessons around negative numbers and the addition and subtraction of negative numbers. There are also some useful plus and minus cards to support L3 and L4 pupils with a kinesthetic approach. The video links also offer some useful links to science and temperature measurement, Please let me have feedback.

Mathematics of Coordinates III - L4 Four Quadrants This lesson covers work in four quadrants and progresses onto equations of simple lines. There is also an online game which is a good pleanry or engager. At the end there is some access to higher work understanding the calculation of linear functions. Lots of opportunities for looking at key terms and describing patterns. The powerpoint is just the basis for activities. As always provide feedback and comments and follow me @boostprogress.
