Finding fractions jigsaw and answer sheet. Can be used as a review at the end of a lesson. An alternative task can be prepared by copying the answer sheet onto different coloured sheets of paper (enough for half your class) and laminating them. Cut out all the shapes from each sheet and place into a small resealable plastic bag. You would then have a class activity for pairs of students that could be reused many times. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-5NA operates with fractions, decimals and percentages

A single sided worksheet with answers. Students need to be able to plot points on the Cartesian number plane. These points are then transformed. Points are joined and polygons are identified. Lengths are identified and areas of polygons are found. Students also need to comment on changes occurring due to the transformations. A wide ranging review worksheet suitable for class work or as a take home task. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-11NA creates and displays number patterns; graphs and analyses linear relationships, and performs transformations on the Cartesian plane.

A single sided worksheet with worked solutions. Also accompanied by a page of hints and instructions for the teacher, incorporating spreadsheet use (ICT).

A 3 page activity with worked solutions. Students need to construct different Fibonacci number patterns by varying the starting numbers. They need to identify even numbers and look for any patterns. They need to graph their answers and note the shapes formed. They need to find the area of a number of squares that can be arranged into a large rectangle and find its area. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-8NA analyses and creates geometric and number patterns, constructs and completes number sentences, and locates points on the Cartesian plane

An activity where students need to reproduce 22 shapes onto equilateral dot paper (provided), cut these shapes out, assemble them to form a hexagon and then glue onto a sheet of paper or in their book. The dot paper needs to be printed separately to allow them to cut out. A challenge is included to only use a minimum of colours to colour the hexagon. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-1WM communicates and connects mathematical ideas using appropriate terminology, diagrams and symbols

A jigsaw activity. Can be used at the end of a lesson as a problem solving activity for pairs of students. The second page needs to be prepared by copying it onto different coloured sheets of paper (enough for half your class) and laminating them. Cut out all the 22 shapes from each sheet and place into into as small resealable plastic bag. You would then have a class activity for pairs of students that could be reused many times. MA4-1WM communicates and connects mathematical ideas using appropriate terminology, diagrams and symbols

A 4 page exercise with solutions. Students need to think deeply to represent the different shapes required. Perimeter needs to be calculated. A challenge is presented at the end. Could be used as a group activity or given as a homework challenge. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-1WM communicates and connects mathematical ideas using appropriate terminology, diagrams and symbols

A series of 11 worksheets for each of the times tables 2 to 12. Students need to write the times table using a calculator. They then can fold the edge of the paper over and try to answer by themselves. Trickier questions are included as well as using division facts for the same times table. Students could complete these worksheets in class or as a homework activity.

This resource has 4 pages covering an explanation of how barcodes work and showing an example. There follows set out questions for students to work through. Full worked solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-2WM selects and applies appropriate problem solving strategies, including the use of digital technologies, in undertaking investigations

A double sided worksheet and a single sided worksheet that link number patterns, tables of values, word descriptions, algebraic descriptions and graphs on the Cartesian plane. These worksheets allow students to see how a number of mathematical topics cover the same concepts in different ways. Could be used for Gifted and Talented students. Full solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-11NA creates and displays number patterns; graphs and analyses linear relationships; and performs transformations on the Cartesian plane

This is a set of 2 activities helping students understand how to explore the relationship between right-angled triangles and rectangles, leading to finding the area of a right-angled triangle. The first activity has 2 pages that need to be printed on separate pages because students will need to cut out and assemble rectangles. The second activity needs a page of cm graph paper. Full solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA3-10MG selects and uses the appropriate unit to calculate area, including areas of squares, rectangles and triangles

A jigsaw with answer sheet to revise numerical indices. Can be used as review at the end of a lesson. An alternative task can be prepared by copying the answer sheet onto different coloured sheets of paper (enough for half your class) and laminating them. Cut out all the squares from each sheet and place into a small resealable plastic bag. You would then have a class activity for pairs of students that could be reused many times. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-9NA operates with positive integer and zero indices of numerical bases

A series of 3 worksheets ( the first one being double sided) where students need to use their geometrical reasoning skills to work out the answers. The students are supported by having the geometrical facts also provided on the first worksheet. Worked solutions are also provided. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-3WM recognises and explains mathematical relationships using reasoning

Students need to know their algebra facts when completing these worksheets. There are 2 double-sided worksheets with solutions. The four operations are used with the positive and negative algebraic terms. These worksheets could be used with Gifted and Talented students. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-8NA generalises number properties to operate with algebraic expressions

Two double sided worksheets with solutions. Students work with place value, interpreting numbers written in words and in figures. Some ordering and other number properties are covered. Suitable as homework or revision of basic concepts. Australian Curriculum (NSW) MA3-4NA orders, reads and represents integers of any size and describes properties of whole numbers

These worksheets are basic co-ordinate geometry with worked solutions. They comprise of 2 double sided worksheets on Graphing Lines and Number Plane Review and a single sided worksheet on Harder Midpoint. Students are led through a series of actions to produce their results and then comment on these. Australian Curriculum (NSW) MA5.1-6NA determines the gradient and length of an interval, and graphs linear relationships If you like my work, please write a review to help others, and check out my shop for more useful activities.
