This is pretty simple (hence it's free) as all it is 4 worksheets for the students to use... Give each pair worksheet 1. Each player in turn rolls the dice, records the score and then adds up their running total. Once you've got a winner then let them play game two where it is done with two dice... and so on All the worksheet does is provide a template for them to write into. You could adapt it by using dice with more than six sides - go look in you Maths Resource cupboard and see what's in there! ... I found some 10, 12 and 20 sided dice.

Activity designed to reinforce, consolidate and master understanding of scatter graphs. Attached is a list of 25 statements (25QTrueFalseScatterGraphsQuestions.rtf) which are either true, false or something in between. The questions are graded where the first 5 are the roughly the easiest, next 5 are harder and so on. Each has a suggested answer, a explanation and a tip for giving the student a little bit more to think about (25TrueFalseScatterGraphsQ-A). How can you use this? a) Give the set of 25 cards (25QTrueFalseScatterGraphsCards) to each table and then ask them to sort them into the categories of true, false, etc . (using the header cards - 4 versions to choose from). Discuss their choices and justify them. You could easily reduce the number of cards for lower ability tables or if in ability tables only given them just the easier cards. (You can see that I have done this with a subset of just 12 questions) but you may wish to pick off your own selection. b) Give each student a TrueFalseScatterGraphsQQT.docx card and allow them to roam the room choosing a partner to "Quiz Quiz Trade" with. i.e. they read the statement to their partner. Their partner then suggests the answer and then is given the solution after a little discussion. Then they do the same for the other partner and then swap cards and then go and find someone else. you can give all the cards out according to ability and then say that you can only pair up with another student who has a same grade question (1 to 5) or a question of a grade one higher or one lower than you. c) Display the statements on the projection screen (25QuestionsTrueFalsePPT) and have the class discuss the answers together. This could be followed up by the students picking one statement and writing their explanation and justification into their exercise books. You can further extend the activity by asking students to choose a false statement and then writing it again so it becomes true. If you spot any errors then please let me know asap. This is based on the work from lauramathswilson - another valued TES resources contributor - thank you to her for sharing it. I liked her idea and decided to develop it slightly to make it a collaborative table activity. I had actually seen the idea of doing true false for scatter graphs on a KS3 SAT paper (it's the last part on a L6 question on a non-calculator paper about Poplar trees) but lauramathswilson has taken it much further nicely.

Ten simple routines for a well ordered classroom. Give your new class a chance to come up with some class rules to agree to. Alternatively use these ten and then just tweak them a little. Then print out the agreed rules on a poster and get them all to sign up to them. Then refer them back to this in the future as necessary.

Objective: Convert between common fractions, decimals and percentages and know common equivalents A simple table collaborative group activity worksheet where the students fill in as many sets of fractions decimals and percentage equivalents that they can remember. It is a good settling starter activity or a good recap plenary exercise to end with. Once they have done several minutes or so, start reading out sets of answers like "1/2 = 0.5 = 50%", etc. Then when you have exhausted your list ask the students to read out any more they have. Then award points to the most unique ones a table has. Most points = winning table. It's a good activity which gets them communicating as they try to get unique sets of equivalents.

It is what it is!

This is just a picture of a brain on A4. You write the topic title or the question on the left and then print out. (You could duplicate the page and then print both onto A4 so each is A5). Each student then fills it with what they know. e.g. **At the start of a lesson to recall everything they remember from yesterday, etc. **During the lesson to summarize or capture all the key information from e.g. a presentation or fact sheet. **At the end of the lesson to recap everything they've learnt. I've edited the picture of the brain to make it easier to write on with less bits to fill in. The student's can order their writing around the brain in any order they choose. It's not my idea and I've not use it yet so interested in any feedback.

Objective: Simplify algebraic expressions by collecting like terms and then simplifying. 35 questions which identify particular types of questions like "a- a = 0" and not "0a", etc. The questions are copied from an excellent worksheet published by mathsmalakiss. I've used his/her worksheet which you can download yourself. However I have placed the questions into a PowerPoint to aid teaching.

Objective: Be able to find the percentage of a quantity (such as money amount) using a non calculator method. Real simple starter. Display the PowerPoint on the whiteboard. Print out the Starter worksheets onto A6 sized sheets or even 2 x 2 Label Sheets and the students come in, see the displayed slide and know to get straight onto their "bell task". Great way to settle them down. Use as a recap for last lesson or like I did to push them onto a harder example that just whole numbers. Use the enclosed Answers to check their working and so understanding. I call this method "Percentage by Quick Routes".. Usually taught via "bubble" or "spider" charts. See my other resources for more examples.

This isn't my idea but I really like it. It can be used by a range of ages. You can set harder questions like "only use fractions" or "you have to use negatives". The Word doc is some sample solutions for you to get an idea from. Enjoy

This is a really simple idea. Give out to each student a grid. The grid contains 3 rows of two. They then write six facts or points about a topic in the six boxes. Then they cut out the boxes (but only cut on the dotted lines) so that they create THREE domino cards. Each of the three domino cards now has two facts - one on either side of the bold line. The student now arranges the three dominoes in to a line (or even a triangle) and then annotates the link or connection between the two facts either side of the connection. E.g. They have written down six facts about angles: **4 angles in a square **angles on a straight line add up to 180 degrees **angles are measured in degrees ** right angles are 90 degrees **360 degrees in a full circle **triangle angles add up to 180 degrees You can see that if they place the fact '4 angles in a square' next to '360 degrees in a full circle' they can annotate the link by saying that 4 x 90 degrees is 360 degrees. You will notice that in the file I have produced tables with 3, 4, 5 and 6 dominoes in. I will give the more able students the greater challenge of having to first recall more facts and then make more links. My colleague has used this successfully however she wrote some facts on some of the dominoes first to get some students started. I'm thinking now that I may first use this activity by making up a set of cards for the class to see how to do it first in their groups. I've just made this ready for a History lesson on Victorian Factory conditions and you will see this in the files as well. It's not my idea and I've not use it yet so I'm interested in any feedback.

There's 23 questions here to ask your students as they are getting ready to end their year. They are all positively phrased and the intention is to print out the sheet of cards, cut them out and then distribute them around the students. Ask them to discuss the answers. with their table mates. There's no writing involved. The Questions.docx is there just so that you can see the questions easily and if you want you can edit them. The PowerPoint is there to make it easy for you to display the questions if you choose to then discuss the questions as a class. Enjoy. Hope it helps at the time of the year!
