UPDATED 7th September 2017 (All answers are provided) I've designed this lesson to build up students knowledge of handling identities and equating coefficients. It starts with 6 quick fire questions on expanding and simplifying single and double brackets and one complete the square question. Then the definitions of an equation and identity are there for discussion. This leads to students having to identify the equations and identities. Following this is two examples of show that this is an identity. One single bracket and one double bracket. Then there is an interactive pairing activity where students need to come to the board and select two cards. If they could be an identity leave them turned over, if not turn them back over and start again. (Snap) Following this is two examples of equating coefficients. One single bracket and one double bracket. Leading into a tick or trash activity where misconceptions can be discussed. The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 5 separate sections a skill 1, 2 & 3 and a stretch. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use. Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation with 2 exam style questions including answers. I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have.

I've designed this resource to allow students to explore basic connections of number and the reasoning why. For example is 3+2-1 the same as 2-1+3. This then leads into an explanation of what BIDMAS is and includes model examples which go through the process step by step. Afterwards there is a quick true or false activity with the answers, you could do this as a mini whiteboard activity, class discussion, group task or silent focus. I personally use this with whiteboards and hammer out the misconceptions. It is a good tool in getting the students to practise providing explinations and reasons verbally for their answers. The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 4 separate sections a skill 1 & 2 and a stretch 1 & 2. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use. (Answers are provided) Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation including answers. I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have. Miss B

All answers are provided I've designed this lesson to build up students knowledge of error intervals. It includes questions on nearest whole, ten and hundred; nearest five, fifty and five hundred; decimal places and significant figures. It begins with a stopwatch starter where students need to to answer 4 questions based around rounding. This leads into a definition about error intervals and why we use the inequality symbols. A nice class discussion is formed around why 3.4999... would be written as 3.5 with a less than symbol for the upper bound. Nearest whole, ten and hundred - 3 examples - 5 Miniature whiteboard multiple choice questions - 15 your turn questions Decimal places and significant figures - 3 examples - 5 miniature whiteboard questions - 12 your turn questions Nearest five, fifty and five hundred; - 3 Examples - 5 miniature whiteboard questions - 15 your turn questions The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 4 separate sections: skills 1, 2 and 3 and stretch 1. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use, however could be printed as a worksheet. Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation with 2 exam style questions including answers. I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have. Any of the the slides could be printed as worksheets if you feel that would be easier for your class. Miss B

This GCSE Higher Maths Revision Resource I have used for several years now on the morning of the GCSE Maths exams or sometimes the twilights on the nights before. I find it helps get students into the maths zone and corrects several common exam easy pitfalls. Breakfast Bingo can be done as a bingo quiz activity or as a worksheet. INCLUDES Slides with prompts and answers Questions as a worksheet 60 Bingo answer cards and a blank card template. Attached are the slides in both most up to date and compatible PowerPoint form. The slides include a grid matrix so you can randomly select questions or you can go through the questions in order. Where appropriate the animations have been used on the slides to provide students with a prompt ALL ANSWERS ARE PROVIDED I have put all the questions onto two pages which could be printed as a worksheet for those teachers wanting to use the resource but not as a bingo activity.

All answers are provided I've designed this lesson to build up students knowledge of rounding to decimal places . It begins with a stopwatch starter where students need to to answer 4 questions based around rounding to the nearest whole, ten and hundred. This is then followed by a class discussion and definition of what rounding is and why we might round. Leading into the main part of the lesson. Rounding to 1 decimal place - 3 examples - Code breaker activity where students have to round the numbers and equate these to a letter in the key. It makes a maths joke. Rounding to 2 decimal places - 3 examples - Multiple choice mini whiteboard quiz (6 questions) This then leads into an exercise including 15 questions which get progressively harder. - 5 x 1 decimal place - 5 x 2 decimal place - 5 x 3 decimal place The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 3 separate sections a skill 1& 2 and a stretch 1. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use. Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation with 2 exam style questions including answers. I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have.

(All answers are provided) I've designed this Lesson to allow students to explore adding and subtracting negative numbers building up from the basic pictorial through the use of counters and coming to identifying quicker methods/ rules. It begins with a look a counters and there meaning and different ways of representing numbers and a mini whiteboard activity. This then leads to 4 basic examples of questions such as -2 + 3, followed by four questions for students to try. Answers are given with full pictorial and written solutions here. This then leads to 4 examples of questions such as -2 - -3, again followed by four questions for the students to try. Answers are given with full pictorial and written solutions here. This leads to a class discussion on quicker methods now that they why is understood. Student have the pictorial to fall back on if they get stuck. There is a pointless quiz activity with two rounds which can be used to help stop misconceptions before the main differentiated activity. (Teacher Guidance notes are within the slides for this activity, however it's pretty straight forward if you have seen the TV show.) The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 5 separate sections a skill 1, 2 & 3 and a stretch 1 & 2. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use. Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation including answers. I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have. Miss B Bonus Materials There is an extra challenge slide of an additions grid of negative numbers. There is also a mixed challenge activity to be used with students once they have learnt how to multiply and divide negative numbers also. I have attached printable versions of the grid I use throughout the slides. I often laminate them for the students to do the examples with me in lessons)
