I regularly upload resources that I have created during 30 years as a teacher. Most of these are maths, but there are some ICT/Computing and Tutor Time activities. All of the resources are my own and are not available from third-parties. The resources have been tweaked over time and I have had many happy lessons and shed-loads of happy and successful students.
At the end of 2017 the TES announced that I was the most downloaded new author and in 2018 another 2 million were added to the count.

These reusable cards are excellent for one-to-one tutorials and interventions. They are also great when working with small groups or as a starter/plenary for a whole class. For Loop Cards on more than 50 other topics click 👉 www.tes.com/../more....
This particular set of cards allows students to practise rounding a variety of numbers to one decimal place.
Note that the questions have been carefully selected so that they provide good coverage of this topic and so that the opportunities for students to guess answers are minimised.
Colour coding:
All my loop cards are colour-coded to indicate the approximate level of the questions:
KS2 – red and orange
KS3/GCSE Foundation – orange and green
GCSE Higher – green, blue and purple
Further information:
In this download there are four sets of similar cards and a student chooses one of the sets and sorts them into order by answering the questions. Then they try to do it faster using a different set, which has the same questions, but a different sort order 😃
My favourite use of loop cards is for two students to have different versions of the cards and race each other. They then check their answers, shuffle, swap packs and race again (quickest overall time wins). More instructions are included in the download.
Cut out card size is approx. 65 x 90 mm.

This is my version of the popular Pentominoes activity. A lesson that’s fun and helps the development of spacial skills. Contains a double-sided worksheet with introductory activity and several extension choices. Also has a PowerPoint with solutions. Has always worked really well with all ages and all abilities. Can be continued at home and brilliant for wall displays too :-)

This is the popular Congruent Halves activity. A lesson that’s fun and is great for the development of spacial skills. Contains a two-page worksheet with introductory activity and a couple of extension options. Also has a PowerPoint with solutions. I have used this activity regularly for over 30 years and it has always worked really well with all ages and all abilities. Can be continued at home and the completed worksheets are excellent for wall displays.
This is a fun interactive whiteboard game, created in PowerPoint, with triggered animations. All my students have loved this activity ('Sir, can we play the chain-game?'). It is enjoyable for both high and low ability – it not only reinforces the learning of the Roman Numerals, but students also need to remember where the numerals are hidden!
--
I typically use this activity as a starter and then as a plenary at the end of the lesson. It gets the whole class involved – even when it's not a students turn, they are repeating the numbers in their head and they are desperate to say where the next number is!
The way that I play the game:
1. I go through the members of the sequence and ensure that the students are familiar with each of the numbers;
2. When the board is revealed, I give about 15 seconds to ‘peek’ at the uncovered board so that the students can try to learn where the first few numbers are;
3. I then call up the students one-at-a-time to try an uncover as many numbers as they can before they go wrong.
NOTES:
I encourage the students to call out the number that they are looking for because this reinforces the learning.
This activity works very well if you get two students to play against each other – either on the interactive whiteboard or on PCs.
