A card game that provides a fun way to reinforce the knowledge of averages. The cards give students an interactive way to develop a deeper understanding of Mean, Median, Mode and Range data.
The cards in the pack are numbered from 0-12. There are 4 rounds to this game and 9 new cards are dealt out to each player each round. Players can choose whether to take their median, mean, mode or range score. However, they can only chose each one once. For example, if I have a range of 11 in the first round and choose that range, and in the next round I have a range of 12, I cannot choose the range for that round. This forces students to work out each average type at least once.
We highly recommend you allow students to use a calculator, as the random nature of the cards means divisions wont always be whole numbers. However, you can ask students to work it out manually as an extra challenge. You can also change the number of cards dealt out. For example, dealing 8 cards means students have to find the medium that appears between two cards.
Pack includes a set of 52 cards of numbers 0 to 12. Full rules of play are included, and the cards are printed with easy-cut guides to make preparation fast and simple.

This card games encourages students to find missing angles in a triangles and straight lines. It helps players grasp the idea that angles in a triangle and on a straight line all add up to 180 degrees. By mixing these concepts together, with cards that also show two angles, it exercises the theory in a strong and varied way.
Players are dealt cards. A card is then turned over from the top of the deck. Players must choose, from their cards, a solution as close to the solution of the base card as possible. The closest player wins the cards played as points.
A full set of rules are included in the game, and the cards are printed with easy-cut guides to make preparation fast and simple.

This game gets students to find the area of various shapes, including rectangles, triangles, compound shapes and parallelograms.
Players are dealt a set number of cards and are encouraged to find the area of the shapes on their cards. Some shapes such as the area of compound shapes require students to find missing sides by adding or subtracting known sides.
A base card is then turned over. Students all play a card from their hands which is closest in area to the base card. The player who was closest to the base cards wins all the cards played and puts them in a separate pile. These are their points. After a set number of rounds, the player with the most points wins.
Each group of cards are coloured so you can remove certain questions you have not taught yet, or to differentiate questions for your class.
-Rectangles are Green
-Triangles are Yellow
-Compound Shapes involving Rectangles are Red
-Parallelograms are Blue
-Compound Shapes involving Triangles are Grey.
Full rules of play and answer key for all cards are provided in the pack itself. The cards are also printed with easy-cut guides to make preparation fast and simple.

We also have available our grade 6/7 target algebra gcse cards.
This is available as part of a bundle with graphs, geometry, number and statistics, all aimed at grades 8/9.
This pack is filled with worksheet activities covering the topic of patterns and sequences. All worksheets are differentiated, offering supported worksheets, as well as worksheets which challenge the most able students. Answer sheets are included.
Gaps In The Sequence asks students to find the missing numbers of sequences (some linear, some following patterns such as doubling each number) and to state the term to term rule.
The Fencing In and Dinner Table Conundrum worksheets introduce the idea of geometric patterns which grow at a linear rate, giving a visual representation on linear sequences. For the more able students, this worksheet asks them to find the nth term of the given patterns.
Fishing for Sequences asks students to find numbers which appear in a given sequence. The first differentiation covers only term to term rules. The middle differentiation includes nth term examples. The most challenging differentiation asks students to state with algebraic reasoning, why a given number is not in a sequence. This checks for a true understanding of sequences.
The fifth worksheet is all about the nth term, with a more challenging worksheet that pushes students to think about such sequences as square numbers, and fraction sequences. The sixth worksheet continues the nth term exploration, starting with students identifying whether a given sequences is linear, and stating whether a given number is in a sequence.
The seventh worksheet, Function Machines, asks students to find the given rule for some numbers. And finally, worksheet eight offers a unique challenge for uniquely able students. This worksheet introduces students to the proper mathematical notation for linear sequences, including the formula for finding any term in a sequence.

These 30 follow me cards are a great way to revise mean, median and mode. Play is similar to dominoes, where the cards are placed end to end with the question to the answers, but each question only has one answer. Students connect the questions and answers together forming a chain, with questions steadily getting harder.
Some ideas for how to use follow me cards:
-Have a treasure hunt, around the classroom or outside. Students start with the starter card and record the solutions in the table.
-Students each take ownership of a card, and then get themselves in line correctly with the answers. If there are more than 30 students, assign some students as ‘managers’. If there are less than 30 students, the first students to connect their cards can be given the remaining cards.
- Cut each card in half and give the students a matching activity. They can then glue the answers into their books.
