Calculate then unjumble the letters to find what Santa has left me this year!

Some quizzes on fun maths facts. Ideal for KS3 and KS4 students. I decided to do a maths quiz in the style of a pub quiz - hope you enjoy it. It's supposed to be a bit of fun, end of term type thing.

Convert mixed to improper and vice versa. The usual stuff - find the Tim Vine joke punchline...

Taking you through counting squares, to rectangle/triangles/parallelograms/trapeziums to compound shapes, circles, cuboids, prisms, sectors/arc lengths, cones, spheres and frustums (phew!). Complete with success criteria etc.

This is a twist on revision notes. I have written some notes and given examples but there are mistakes that the students have to correct. They must therefore read the notes very carefully and a partner must check their work. The idea is derived from an idea born from a discussion on Twitter (if you're not on Twitter, seriously think about it). I have split the notes up into three but I have included the whole thing so that you can chop them up your own way, or change stuff if you want. It&'s a bit of an experiment and we&';ll see how it goes!

Help desperate Food Tech teacher Billy Black with his cake recipes before he's abducted by aliens. Clearly a play on the TV show, but an exercise in simple proportion using amounts of ingredients for recipes - the calculations get progressively more difficult.

Convert the units and find the answer to a joke. It involves length, mass and capacity.

Four codebreakers (each with a different cheesy joke) on rounding starting with nearest whole 1,10,100 etc, then decimal places, then significant figures and finally a mixture of all types. Error in sheet 1 corrected. More codebreaker resources 🔑 Cheesebreakers (Cheese-related joke) Bundle Codbreaker (Fish-related Joke) Bundle Number + Probability Codebreakers GCSE Maths

The usual lame jokes and two codebreakers, number 1 not involving mixed numbers, number 2 involving them.

I needed something for my top set Year 8 to get their teeth into regarding "order of operations" and since I'm clearly into spiders at the moment this was born. It asks student to place operations and brackets into calculations to make them equal a certain total. There are 4 that get increasingly difficult (no indices involved) and then a challenge (with indices involved). There will also be more than one way to answer some, but I have provided an answer for each.

Three algebraic fraction codebreakers to solve with the usual terrible jokes. They are of increasing difficulty so choose the one appropriate to your needs.

This is a worksheet with some questions on solving simultaneous equation in three sections. Section 1 is two linear equations; section 2 is a quadratic and y=n; section 3 is a quadratic and y=mx+c. The first two sections fit onto two sides of A4 and part 3 is the extension ultimately. There is a RAG table for students to mark their progress and this can be amended depending on how far you want to go. Students will need to plot graphs and estimate solutions as not all are integers. Typos corrected!

Solve the inequalities, choose the correct answer from the list and you will get an anagram.

Three worksheets about trigonometric functions and simple transformations.

A sheet where students can pick the section on which they need more work (self-differentiated no less). Ranges from plain old fractions, through functional plain old fractions, through mixed numbers through functional mixed numbers. No bells, whistles, anything like that, just a load of questions. I have added a 'Prove It' sheet so that the class can show you what they can now do.

The usual format from adding and subtracting simple fractions up to mixed numbers on number 2. Some answers need simplifying.

Calculate each question using Bodmas/Bidmas, unjumble the letters and find the name of a famous international city!

Using the format of my favourite daytime television programme, can you calculate whether these people have made a profit or loss, and what the percentage of that may be. There is also a question regarding rental income at the end.

This is a twist on revision notes. I have written some notes and given examples but there are mistakes that the students have to correct. They must therefore read the notes very carefully and a partner must check their work. The idea is derived from an idea born from a discussion on Twitter (if you're not on Twitter, seriously think about it). I have split the notes up into two bits but I have included the whole thing so that you can chop them up your own way, or change stuff if you want. It's a bit of an experiment and we&'ll see how it goes!

Three different codes to crack: number 1 is just finding the next term in the sequence (not all are arithmetic), number 2 is substituting into nth terms (with a simple quadratic or two) and number 3 is finding and using nth terms of arithmetic sequences. Each has a punchline to a joke to find. I use these for starters and plenaries or homeworks as they are very easy to mark. Typo on number 1 corrected.
