I have been a teacher for over 20 years - all the stuff I upload has been tried and tested in my classroom. I don't mind a discussion on Twitter too where I also share new resources. I now have a personal website: https://andylutwyche.com/

Superman Bearings

Superman Bearings

(10)
Finish off the details of Superman's journey to the various crime scenes. This involves scale and bearings.
The Unbelievable Bulk - Enlargement
alutwychealutwyche

The Unbelievable Bulk - Enlargement

(10)
Calculate how angry The Bulk is by figuring out what scale factor he's enlarged by and using Bulk's 'Angry Scale'. See how that relates to his 'safety' box and its surface area and volume.
Defuse The Bomb - Substitution
alutwychealutwyche

Defuse The Bomb - Substitution

(6)
The usual ‘answer the questions and defuse the bomb’ story, this time involving substitution. Two worksheets, the second one being more difficult than the first.
Multiplying Out Brackets

Multiplying Out Brackets

(4)
These three powperpoints are designed to lead people through multiplying out brackets. I would suggest searching for Alex Bellos' different ways of doing long multiplication on YouTube as they link nicely in with the first bit of the 'Multiplying out 2 brackets' presentation and are a bit of fun too.
Types of Graph

Types of Graph

(4)
I did this having seen numerous poor attempts at sketches in books on recognising types of graph.
Surds Matching
alutwychealutwyche

Surds Matching

(4)
I needed some surds practice so designed this. It moves through simplifying surds, surd calculations to rationalising the denominator. Discussion should be forthcoming as to the answer to the "spare". Now printable!
Algebra Tour de France
alutwychealutwyche

Algebra Tour de France

(4)
Calculate each team's final position in the race by substituting in a value of your choice. There's a bit of algebraic proof in there too to see if the teams will finish in the same position regardless of the value substituted.
Monsters Inc - Properties of Number
alutwychealutwyche

Monsters Inc - Properties of Number

(4)
This is aimed at lower ability but could also be used for higher ability. It combines maths and drawing as you have to sketch what the monster should look like given the properties. The first two have specific numbers, the second two offer a variety of answers and was intended (by me) to lead to discussion, but you could use it however you like!
Sequences: Term-To-Term Rules
alutwychealutwyche

Sequences: Term-To-Term Rules

(18)
Describe the term-to-term rules of these then it could be extended to link into nth terms. This is an attempt to show the relationship between the difference and the nth term through comparison and therefore discovery rather than the teacher just saying how it works. I have also thrown in some "famous sequences" that can be discussed.
Enlargement - Explain Your Reasoning
alutwychealutwyche

Enlargement - Explain Your Reasoning

(8)
Increasingly difficult questions from D grade up to A grade and with a 'Red, Amber, Green' table to fill in their progress. I've said that it can be used at KS3 as well, because I reckon that they will figure out the tougher stuff. (One mistake now corrected.)

Volume Puzzles

I’ve no idea where I got these (if they were yours then message me and I will give credit as it’s certainly due) but I only had a paper copy so I have typed them up because I use them every year. They do exactly what they say on the tin. I have added my own one with slightly harder shapes entitled Cake Joke, but it’s the same thing (error corrected).
