This presentation just takes you through definite integrals and uses questions from Edexcel; please don't expect anything flashy. If the animations get mixed up I apologise but for some reason Equation Editor doesn't have square brackets onto which one can put limits! Annoying.

A little known fact about Santa's helpers the elves is that they are very keen mathematicians. They have written down various bits of information required by Santa in algebra. Help Santa sort it all out. Contains simplifying expressions, solving equations, expanding and factorising and co-ordinates on graphs.

Choose one of the 6 options and then say what happens next when solving the equation. I used a template (with permission!) for the music from the excellent resource written by DanielBurke - check his resources out as they are top quality. The animations are little clunky, but do the job - I'm sure you could all make it look like Avatar! If you find the answers already on the slide then powerpoint has messed up the animations. Just contact me and I can send you my version.

Four sheets (two with mixed numbers, two without) to practise multiplying and dividing fractions. This is just a different way of doing some questions and depending on how it's run can involve plenty of discussion.

Answer the differentiation questions, find the letters and reveal the punchline to a (terrible) joke. My class in Year 12 actually request these only to groan enormously when the answer is revealed. Just meant for a bit of practice, a starter or a plenary. Version 2 contains second derivatives.

A student gave me the title (pun on 'The Hunger Games'), I did the rest. Five different sets of questions in a functional style for students to work through either individually or in pairs/teams. It's supposed to be non-calculator! I may do a sequel for this as there are a few topics I haven't covered.

Watch the videos and then use inequalities and height restrictions to solve some simple problems. This was an idea my student teacher had and I took it in a slightly different direction with number lines etc. It is an introduction to inequalities. Videos now on the powerpoint.

Clive needs your help again - he's struggling on his upper and lower bounds homwork. Designed to create discussion in class and get students thinking about the question. I have used typical errors in Clive's workings.

Batman is a little neurotic when travelling by Batmobile and will only travel down roads that have certain number properties. Can you help him plan each of these routes?

I got this idea from Tristan Jones @tris206 who had similar thing which I liked on TES, so I produced my own. I have purposely used a quite obscure joke so that it can't be guessed! The transformations involved are reflection, rotation and translation. For those who downloaded it very quickly, there's a second one!

A student gave me the title (pun on 'The Hunger Games' - original was 'The Number Games'), I did the rest. Five different sets of questions in a functional style for students to work through either individually or in pairs/teams.

Clive seems to have got a little confused on prime factors, HCF and LCM. His homework involves five questions, all of which he has got wrong. Can you help explain where he's gone wrong? This activity is designed to create mathematical discussion.

This is designed to get them to remember key fractions, decimals and percentages equivalents, and then use them to complete other questions. This is a 'no frills' worksheet, but aimed at lower ability.

I need help converting pounds to euros, miles to kilometres and temperatures. My phone has run out of battery so I have to use a conversion graph to make a best estimate. There are a few silly pictures of me and my head on celebrity bodies to add a bit of fun.

This was an idea one of my Year 10s gave me using the "Mean Girls" films. This covers basic mean, median and mode before moving on to stem-and-leaf (including IQR) and grouped data - there are three very distinct sections moving up in difficulty to enable you to start/end where you like. It's all on the powerpoint to save the planet (no worksheet) but everything can be copied and pasted to create a worksheet.

Clive is tackling a simultaneous equations homework but as per usual is making errors. There are three sets of linear simultaneous equations to correct and a linear/quadratic to look at. I have tried to cover regular errors for students to spot, correct and discuss.

This idea is from Craig Barton and is an excellent one (check them out his at website); essentially it is four questions based on the same information. There are four here which use perimeter, area, Pythagoras, equations of lines, coordinates, vectors, equations of circles, expanding brackets, solving equations as well as other topics. This really should create discussion and a deeper understanding of the topics covered on top of ensuring that students actually read the question. I hope these are worthy! I will be using these as starters or plenaries.

Dounble homework this week for Clive as he tackles algebraic fractions; he's having a complete nightmare to be honest. Can your class help him out and explain where he's gone wrong? These are designed for starters or plenaries and encourage discussion in class. The second sheet is at a higher level (quadratics etc) than the first.

The mandatory terrible joke revealed by finding some partial fractions. Sheet 2 involves the cover up rule and both involve fractional as well as negative numerators.

Starts easy and gets harder but essentially does what it says on the tin. A challenge for GCSE, a starter for A Level. There may be more hence the "1".
