5 levels of difficulty/differentiation. There are 100 cards each (with answers) on the following topics: solving by factorising, solving by comleting the square, factorising quadratics, using the quadratic formula and harder quadratics. 500 questions and answers in all.
A stack of cards is shuffled at the beginning. Each time you land on any square (including snakes and ladders) the player must pick up a card from the deck. Get it right stay there, get it wrong miss a turn.
I have included 2 boards. One has 30 squares and is ideal for a quick game or activity. The other has 100 squares, which would be useful to get in more practice and lead to a longer game.
Great for higher GCSE Students and AS Students studying core 1.

A GCSE Foundation Maths PowerPoint presentation I created from some revision worksheets I use. It contains slides on how to answer all the types of questions that may come up in the foundation exam. It was created with AQA and Edexcel (foundation) in mind, but may be suitable for other exam boards too.
Additionally, could be good revision for Higher GCSE students too. I use it with my high KS3 Students as they are more than capable understanding the material.
I have split it up into four areas: Number, Algebra, Data/statistics, and Shape/Space/Measures.

Brilliant game based on classic who wants to be a millionaire. Has realistic sound effects as well as 50/50, ask the audience and phone a friend. Adapted for students sitting higher GCSE Maths who need to work on their algebra. Multiple choice. The questions get more challenging as the students near the one million pound question. Full instructions are provided within the document.
I've also included a couple of screenshots to give you a feel of how it is in action. Makes a great supply lesson, whole lesson, levelled task or whole class activity. I have also used it with my A-Level students who are studying C1.

This pack contains a presentation on factorising quadratics and solving by factorising, a worksheet with increasing levels of difficulty to challenge your students and as an extension activity for the more able I have also I have also included a set of 100 solving by factorising questions (with answers).
Thank you to all those who struggled with the Hannah’s sweets question (Edexcel Maths 2015), you inspired me to create this resource,
Goes well with our Free Hannah’s Sweets Resource & with our snakes and ladders quadratics game with over 500 questions.

This game pack includes five snakes and ladders games. The first are simpler one step algebraic equations with one unknown. The second includes a pair of brackets. The third includes two step equations. The forth has unknowns on both sides. The fifth and final game includes unknowns and brackets on both sides.
I’ve played this game with some of my tutees who are primary aged, and some secondary school students who struggle with these topics and it always seems to bring out their enthusiasm and competitive spirit.
Could also be printed on A3 and laminated. Makes a good supply lesson, activity or challenge to stretch students.

Covers all the main topics a higher tier students need to know including: Fractions, decimals, percentages, squares, cubes, indices, exchange rates, percentage change, ratio, metric/imperial units & equivalents, circle theorem, translations, tessellations, nth term, linear graphs, quadratic graphs, pie charts, probability and much more.
It was created with AQA and Edexcel (Higher) in mind, but may be suitable for other exam boards too. I also have a corresponding foundation resource, so if you found this one useful feel free to download the other too. I’ve also included a couple screenshots so you can preview before download.

Good luck with your & I hope your students find it as useful as mine did.
This Bumper revision megapack includes a wordsearch, a matching up activity, a crossword and a set of anagrams for the students to unscramble.
Makes a nice break from some of the more intensive revision most students will be undertaking in maths at this time of year. I use these as lesson starters and they work well with my students.
For a more indepth look at the topics please see my other resources
Enjoy & good luck to all the students sitting their exams!

The included files were inspired by the many maths murder mystery cryptography challenges (links are in the resource pack). This version is based on the gunpowder plot & in it students must discover the date, the culprit(s), the location and the victim (History students may find this task slightly easier)
I’ve made it accessible for key stage 3 and 4 students (may be a little too challenging for KS2), Makes a good whole class activity, can take up a whole lesson & I have used it on many occasions for a cover lesson. I’ve also created handouts in case you wanted to let the students do it individually. I sometimes give a prize to the student who solves it first.
I hope your students enjoy it & are able to solve the mystery.
Comprehensive PowerPoint covering all Quadratics Graphs. Contains a short recap on straight line graphs and covers all the main quadratic functions such as n-shaped, u-shaped, and reciprocal. We use the table method to get the co-ordinates then sketch the graphs
I've also created a worksheet with plenty of questions for them to create tables and plot (answers included in separate files) Also contains a little on factorising quadratics.
Please see my free resource on straight line graphs that can be downloaded here https://www.tes.co.uk/teaching-resource/linear-straight-line-graphs-all-in-one-11072226
Hope you find this as useful as I did, & if you did please make our day by leaving us a comment or rating.
