This works its way up from solving very basic equations (grade G/1) to solving quadratic equations graphically (grade A*/9) via letters on both sides and quadratics (various methods) through a series of questions on the topic and more practice questions if required. Students click through based upon their ability to answer the questions and should allow them to focus their revision at the correct point.

This works its way up from simplifying basic ratios (grade D/3) to real life ratio problems including recipes (grade C/4) onto conversion graphs (C/4) then direct and inverse proportion including their graphs (A/7) through a series of questions on the topic and more practice questions if required. Students click through based upon their ability to answer the questions and should allow them to focus their revision at the correct point.

This works its way up from very basic simplifying of indices (grade F/1) or reading/writing in standard form (D/3) to simplifying algebraically with negative and fractional indices (grade A/8) and calculating in standard form (B/7) through a series of questions on the topic and more practice questions if required. Students click through based upon their ability to answer the questions and should allow them to focus their revision at the correct point.

The two bands are comparing notes with regards being in a band in different eras. The 1D boys work in metric, The Stones in imperial. Can you convert units between metric and imperial (and vice versa) for each band?

Discover the punchline to the lame joke (I use it in class on a regular basis) by solving the equations involving brackets and fractional parts. I have got "Solving Equations Codebreakers 1, 2 and 3" elsewhere, uploaded a while ago.

Construction and loci worksheet. Show where Spiderman can go using loci in each of these three situations.

In these worksheets students read the 14 cartoon characters' co-ordinates from the grid. Makes reading co-ordinates a little more fun!

Save Our Satellite - Simultaneous Equations: Trying to find a real life example of where we might solve simultaneous equations graphically I came up with this. Students have to plot to linear graphs and find the point of impact. You could bring in Pythagoras and find out if the two bodies were travelling at the same speed would they actually collide, but I wanted to keep the worksheet to one side of A4.

No knowledge of cricket required, just some names of counties! Choose the correct numbers from the list and unjumble the letters.

This is a worksheet with tables using actual data released by the PFA and came from an investigation by the BBC's Football Focus. It's all quite straight forward stuff, but might open student eyes somewhat! Students use he data to calculate percentage changes.

I wanted something mathematical for the last lesson of term so came up with this. There are two versions, foundation and higher, so take your pick.

Rotate Spidey in the the correct quadrants to capture his enemies. I have produced the Notebook file to save on printing.

Match each pie chart to its description. Plenary or starter activity.

Inspired by mrbarton's collective memory tasks that my classes have enjoyed I wrote these for some lower ability classes I teach. There are calculations for them to do too. If you don't know how they work, get students in groups of 3/4, show the file on the board for 30 seconds and they try to copy what they remember from it (no writing whilst file is being shown). Show the file a total of 4 or 5 times. Great for discussions etc.

This is just a general, 'end-of-term' activity containing a few different, and fairly simple maths problems, including co-ordinates, locus, Pythagoras/trigonometry/scale drawing, conversion, solving linear equations, ratio, substitution. It is designed for most students to do.

This was an attempt to make inequalities more interesting and relevent by using them whilst helping the Inequaliser (Bobby McShout) solve a robbery.

The students need to write a formula for the profit that 3 apps will make, writing them in words and algebra. The extension is to draw a graph of the formulae.

Calculate the upper and lower bounds of the amount of spinach in a can, what each gram of spinach will allow Popeye to lift and various other stuff.

Look at the first draft of Santa's survey and improve it, saying what was wrong with his original questions.

Decide whether these statements are Always, Sometimes or Never true. Cut out and stick.
