A little bit of fun to celebrate the Euros with some football themed maths. Task should be non-calculator Edit 8/6/2024 - It has been highlighted that I needed to correct the answer to Q2. The problem with changing my mind with the wording of the question on my final read through then forgetting to adjust the answer accordingly. Apologies

The padlock task adapted by J Black for the N5 Applications of Mathematics course. Instructions included in the file.

The padlock challenge adapted for Advanced Higher Maths Instructions and solutions included

This resource is to help students study for the N5 Maths exam. It is designed 90 exam standard questions covering all expected topics and the skills needed in common questions. Basically written as 3 exams (P1/P2) of 30. The idea being I will issue my pupils a bingo ticket (purchased from local discount stores) and that is the questions they will do. Luck of the draw in terms of the topics they get. Not a race, not a game of bingo as such. Just a variety. Over time they will revise with all 90 questions. Answers kindly proofed, typed and cross checked by Mr R Milton of national5maths.co.uk, where students can also find this resource.

Simple Christmas Tree symmetrical drawing. Others were behind pay walls on websites. In my opinion, teachers shouldn’t charge other teachers!

Common exam contexts for questions in Scottish Higher Maths

Revision pack with 33 exercises to prepare candidates for the Higher Maths exam. Can be issued as individual worksheets if a pupil needs to focus on a particular topic or as a whole booklet to allow pupils the choice. Many pupils here set a target during study to complete question 4 from each page before restarting with another number. The questions at the bottom are more challenging and apply the skill from the 10 non-context ones above. Thank you to Mr Black, Mr Donnelly and Miss Mullen (BHS) for proof reading and checking answers! Edit 22/03/2019: It appears I’d edited a page (Essential Skills 1 of all pages) and forgot to save the corrected version in the pack. Should be fine now

I’ve used one of these for Higher that I love and is a hit with the pupils. Thank you to the original author on here. Adapted for N5 level
