These are homework sheets which also contain a QR code to a tutorial video if the students require. I have used similar before and parents (and children) have found the QR code very useful and should avoid the “I don’t get it” excuse as they can get help via the QR code. The tutorials have been made using the app Explain Everything if you are interested. Topics covered include arithmetic sequences (nth terms: generating and finding), solving equations (from single step to fractional parts), substitution. Each comes with answers too.

The tutorials have been made using the app Explain Everything if you are interested. Topics covered include angles (line, point, triangles, polygons, parallel lines), perimeter and area (rectangles, triangles, trapeziums, circles), surface area of cubes/cuboids, construction. Each one comes with answers too.

The tutorials have been made using the app Explain Everything if you are interested.

Each sheet comes with answers.
A progress sheet to print out, questions on various topics to check knowledge and focus revision in the places where it's needed. This starts at measuring and drawing, types of angle (G/1), on a line/around a point (F/1), triangles and quadrilaterals (E/2), parallel lines (D/3), polygons (C/4), bearings (C/4&5) and circle theorems (A/7&8).
A progress sheet to print out, questions on various topics to check knowledge and focus revision in the places where it's needed. This starts at symmetry (G/F/1), moves onto reflection, rotation, translation, enlargement without a centre (all D/3), enlargement with a centre (C/5), combined transformations (B/6), Congruence and similarity (B/6) and area and volume of similar shapes (A/7).
This is just a set of relatively simple transformation questions both on Powerpoint and worksheet. It is split into 5 parts: reflection, rotation, translation and two sets of mixed questions. I have written it with Year 7 or 8 but they could be used for foundation GCSE too.
This codebreaker is aimed at high GCSE or starting AS Level students; the usual joke punchline to discover. It contains things like negative and fractional indices, surds, completing the square.
This is split into four parts: finding scale factor, enlargement with no centre, enlargement with a centre, enlargement on a co-ordinate grid. It is supposed to scaffold up from basic to relatively difficult, but not too difficult! Typos corrected...
These are all available for free individually but if you want the whole lot then here you are. These are part-QR codes that can be completed by answering various maths questions. All answers are binary (have two answers: yes/no, odd/even, true/false) and the instructions say which must be coloured. Each completed QR code then scans to a video in general (I believe a couple scan to pictures of me I think!) but it is a way of checking the answers.
These are all available individually for free but are available as one big bunch here. The concept is to choose the correct order to cut the wires by answering the questions correctly - each wire is linked to a question. Not all the wires need cutting to prevent guessing at the end. I use these as starters, plenaries (prove you can do the work tasks) and quick homeworks!
This is a powerpoint covering rounding from to whole numbers, decimal places and significant figures, then estimating calculations (including bounds) to standard form. It contains brief notes by way of an explanation, model answers to questions and a question or two for the students to do; all of the questions come with answers that you can display when ready. The slide show comes with a progress grid (regularly referred to in the presentation) so that students can mark their progress from start to finish and pinpoint any areas that may need extra work with a “red/amber/green” system that they fill in; each one is given an approximate grade in both new (2017 onwards) and old system in England. It’s what I use in my lessons before setting tasks from worksheets or text books to practise.

I (when I say "I", I really mean "students") needed some practise on tally/frequency tables and this is what I came up with. There are three tables to complete: firstly a simple tally/frequency, secondly the students must fill in the categories and thirdly a grouped frequency table (on the other side of the worksheet as a mini extension). Simple but got the job done.
This is nothing fancy whatsoever, just 5 sets of data to calculate the mean, median, mode and range from. There are two context questions and finally one frequency table to calculate averages from.

These are all individually available for free but if you don't have the time to search I have put them in a bundle for you. Each sheet contains some multiple choice questions. Each potential answer has a QR code linked to it and will scan to a song (whether correct or incorrect to prevent guessing). Only the correct code of numbers and/or colours will defuse the bomb! Good for discussions and asking students to explain their thinking.
