I trained as a teacher of secondary Mathematics and evolved into a Computing teacher as well. I offer mainly Mathematics resources written for the current Australian Curriculum (NSW). Luckily Mathematics is recognisable all over the world, so I hope that teachers in different countries can use some of my work.

Two step equation jigsaw

(1)
Easy equation solving 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 MA4-10NA uses algebraic techniques to solve linear and quadratic equations

Enlargement activity

(0)
Activity showing two different methods for enlargement. There is a one page worksheet using the grid method with solutions. There is also a three page worksheet with solutions using the ray method. The enlargement factor is also calculated. These different methods could be taught individually or together. An interesting challenge is to use the ray method to enlarge a small drawing, e.g. a favourite cartoon character. These make a great poster and can be used to decorate your class room.
