This is three memory tasks on: Index Laws Pythagoras Squares and Cubes I print them on A3 and then they work in groups of 3/4 getting to take it in turns to reproduce the poster from memory. I normally have 30 seconds look and 1 minute draw per person. Can take between 20-40 minutes depending on the group. I always award prizes for the most accurate. I have used this with both KS3 and KS4 top/bottom sets and mixed ability it really works and the students love them.

A selection of different functions that have been transformed then both graphs plotted on the same axis so they can be compared. This allows the students to investigate and try to discover how changing the function will change the graph.

This is a lesson on simultaneous equations based around the comparing cups of tea method. It is aimed at Foundation GCSE but could also be used with KS3 groups as an introduction to simultaneous equations. Includes power point with two worked examples and a starter question. Worksheet with answers for independent learning.

I designed a lesson where the students draw a map with key places and key characters then write the story of their journey through their map. Bearings and Scale are the key features of their story. Peer assessment.

This is a differentiated mini assessment on: Prime Factorisation HCF LCM BIDMAS Using a calculator for roots Rounding with Decimal Places I have used colours to show the different level questions (Blue=easiest - Red=Hardest) There is a box built in for feedback and a power point with full worked solutions. There is also a problem solving question.

This is one of my most poplar worksheets turned into a lesson I find very effective. I give the students a card each with either a picture definition or a worded definition. They then walk around the classroom asking what the other person has and seeing if they can name or define it and then swapping cards. I stop them at regular intervals and get them to tell me something they have learning. They then use this knowledge to fill in the properties sheet.

This resource can be used with KS3/KS4 and all abilities that are able to construct triangles. I thought the idea of a jigsaw would add something different to this topic. This idea means they have to be very accurate if they want their jigsaw to work. Problem solving is also needed to match the triangles.

5 Christmas words coded using BIDMAS and then anagrams to work out. Answers provided. After Review typos have been amended.

I have found that the topic of fractions is always something the students do not really like from the moment you say the word so I wanted to come up with a way to teach fractions to all ages and abilities in a way they would enjoy. In this resource is a pack of 32 fractions each with a popular character. Personally I have them laminated and cut out into little cards. There are worksheets which cover: 1. Equivalent Fractions - Addition - Subtraction (ANSWERS) 2. Multiplying and Dividing (inc cross canceling) There is also a notebook file to use in the teaching and questioning part at the beginning/end.

The Disney characters have combined and need to be solved. Can be done using full algebra for higher ability and just by inspection and trail and error for the lower sets. Full answers. Merry Christmas This is a part of my Christmas Problem Solving pack :)

Christmas themed worded HCF LCM problems. Three levels of difficulty. Answers included. Merry Christmas Part of my Christmas Bundle.

This is a starter activity on all algebraic manipulation. It includes 4 levels of challenge and includes all answers. Collecting Like Terms Expanding Single Brackets Factorising Single Brackets Expanding Double Brackets Expanding Triple Brackets Factorising Quadratics when a=1 Factorising Quadratics when a is not 1

This is a full lesson if not two lessons on scatter graphs. Differentiated investigation of three hypothesis' relating to Disney, movies and actors. Included: Power point with starter, discussions, practice questions and investigation setup. ALL Answers. Three sets of data for the three investigations. Pre made axes for full support or partial support. Full answers.

Problem Solving for Fractions Percentages Ratio and Proportion. This is an activity turned into a full lesson based around a detective agency. Every activity is provided with full slides and answers. I stapled the instructions to little bags with the clue cards in. Also covers literacy as they have to write a letter to the head teacher at the end of the activity. Comes with an extension element.
