This product includes four worksheets on rationalising the denominator, each worksheet is progressive in its challenge and level of difficulty.
Rationalise Worksheet A; This worksheet involves rationalising fractions were the resulting answer does not require any cancelling for Q1-7, Q8 requires the fraction to be cancelling.
Rationalise Worksheet B; This worksheet involves rationalising fractions were the resulting answer does require cancelling and some of the surds can be simplified before or after rationalising.
Rationalise Worksheet C; Q1-2 require cancelling and Q3-8 require pupils to use the conjugate pair
Rationalise Worksheet D; this is a mixed sheet which progresses through all of the above style questions.
Worksheet D is available as a free sample here, check it out.

Heat Maps can be displayed or printed for each pair of pupils. Each heat map increases in difficulty indicated by the hotness, the redder/hotter the more difficult the question. Pupils choose a cell to start at and perform the given operation with the corresponding element of the question from the x and y axis.
This heat map requires pupils to add two composite functions together and forms part of the Heat Map Bundle for topics on Functions and Coordinates.

Part of the new 9-1 GCSE, this set of four ‘Tick or Trash’ worksheets require pupils to evaluate functions by substitution into both linear, quadratic and composite functions
The four worksheets are;
Worksheet A; This worksheet has 10 questions; 8 questions involve evaluating the three functions numerically and 2 questions involve exact (Pi) and algebraic evaluation.
Worksheet B; This worksheet has 10 questions; 4 questions involve evaluating the three functions numerically and 6 questions algebraically.
Worksheet C; This worksheet has 10 questions evaluating composite functions numerically.
Worksheet D; This worksheet has 10 questions evaluating composite functions algebraically.
Test your students’ ability to spot mistakes and develop their understanding with this activity. Pupils are given two different answers to a question and have to determine which is correct. They then have to explain what misconception has led to the incorrect answer.
Full instructions, ideas for extension, and a solution are provided in the resource - what more could you need? Check out NumberLoving for more ideas and resources like.

Fortune Teller activities, or Cootie Catchers in the US, are a great childhood game remodeled to test mathematical skills. Check out our blog post (link in document) for further information.
In this cootie catcher there is one cootie catcher sample. This has eight questions requiring students to find averages (mean, median, mode and range) from a set of data presented in a list. The corners of the cootie catcher indicated the differentiation which is to three levels (easy, medium and difficult) and the fourth corner is a “pot luck” section.
This is a sample resource comes complete with instructions, ideas for stretch/challenge and two blank versions of the fortune teller (cootie catcher) for challenging pupils to create their own.
All of our resources come complete with instructions and ideas to stretch and support.

Christmas Maths Solving Linear Equations Math Art Worksheets
This resource includes three differentiated worksheets on solving linear equations. Each worksheet gives a different Christmas themed picture.
Worksheet 1: Solving one-step equations
Worksheet 2: Solving two-step equations
Worksheet 3: Solving one & two-step equations of increasing difficulty
Math Art combines the fun of colouring and the consolidation of mathematical skills. Ideal as a plenary activity to determine what learning has taken place, alternatively use to determine pupils prior knowledge to a topic and of course great for revision.

Updated This resources has new content added. It now includes one set in the traditional fan and pick style (i.e. answer on the question cards) and a second version of the question cards with the answer removed. Therefore giving more flexibility for how you might use them with your students. Previous buyers, please re-download to access new content.
Fan and Pick activity promotes cooperative learning (Kagan strategy), by creating situations for discussions around finding the correct answer and not just what the answer is. They can be used as a plenary activity to determine what learning has taken place, used to determine pupils prior knowledge to a topic and of course great for revision.
Each Fan and Pick set has a set of 12 question cards, each card has three questions differentiated by hotness. The sequences questions here cover finding the next term, the nth term, generating a sequence and deciding if a term is in the sequence; including linear, quadratic and Fibonacci sequences. Alternatively use the second set (with answers removed) as differentiated question task cards.
Full instructions and solutions are provided along with suggestions for stretch and challenge.

This resource is to provide notes or revision for straight line graphs and is suitable for the GCSE 9-1. There are seven revision foldables in this pack covering the following;
Straight Line Graph 1; given a sketch pupils state the equation of each straight line graph.
Straight Line Graph 2; given a graph pupils find the equation of each straight line graph
Straight Line Graph 3; given the equation of the line pupils draw the graph
Straight Line Graph 4; given the equation of the line pupils find the gradient and y-intercept rearranging where necessary.
Straight Line Graph 5; given the gradient and a coordinate point, pupils find the equation of the line.
Straight Line Graph 6; given two coordinates pupils find the equation of the line that passes through the two points.
Straight Line Graph Mixed; pupils complete one of each of the above
Foldables can be used as a revision or summary exercise at the end of a topic. As the answers are hidden pupils can use these to ‘test’ themselves or ask someone else such as a parent to test them.
This has been updated April 2019, adding new content. This purchase now includes an A4 version (UK printers) and a US version which is letter size (US printers), please ensure you open and print (following the instructions included) from the file most appropriate for your printer.

Translation (Mystery & Quick Fire Starter)
Mysteries are a thinking skills activity, they promote collaboration and independence from the teacher. They are perfect to use at the end of a topic, requiring pupils to use the skills in a problem solving and often real life problem.
This download includes a starter activity and main translation mystery activity.
The starter is aimed at introducing translations through 10 quick fire questions on describing translations. Pupils can answer on mini whiteboards; use discussion to introduce and model that the movement left/right should be given first, followed by the move up/down.
The main activity “Translation mystery” is differentiated to two levels in which pupils use the clues to plot and translate shapes; level 1 uses words e.g. “left right” where as the second level uses vectors.

This pack involves seven revision foldables on angle properties, they are:
Angle properties 1- pupils are required to recall the basic angle properties angles in a right angle, on a straight line, around a point, vertically opposite
Angle properties 2- pupils find the missing angle and state the basic angle property
Angle properties 3- same as angle properties one but in words and pupils complete the sentence and draw a diagram example
Triangle Angle Properties- pupils name the triangle and use the appropriate angle property to find the missing angle
Quadrilateral Angle Properties- pupils recall the angle properties of squares, rectangles, parallelograms, trapeziums, rhombus and kites.
Angles in Parallel Lines- pupils find the missing angles within parallel lines and state the reason
Angles in Polygons - requires students to recall and use the rules involved in finding the angles of shapes and polygons, including exterior, interior angles. This one is available to purchase individually.
