May 2020 Codebreaker Bundle

These prove popular with many students and colleagues and are perfect for online working due to them spelling out a punchline to a cheesy joke. There are 30 codebreakers in this bundle. Topics covered include: inequalities (regions), cumulative frequency/box plots, probability (including tree diagrams), transformations, circle theorems, set notation, discrete data, factorising quadratics, arc and sectors, averages, statistical graphs and more. Each of these is available individually for free but if you you want them all in one hit then this is for you.

Tour de Distance-Time Calculations

Using Stage 8 of the 2013 Tour de France, a stage won by Chris Froome, can you use his timings (as accurate as I could get from the official Tour website) to answer the questions. It’s basically speed calculations. There are links to the website and a video ‘hook’ at the beginning.

This involves the old water issue, requiring 4 litres when you only have containers of 3 litres and 5 litres, plus an interactive game from subtangent.com. I have done a powerpoint version exported from SmartBoard too, on request, and now I have worked out how to embed the video! Enjoy!

QR Code Puzzle 2 - Solving Equations

I got this idea from DaveGale (thanks by the way!) and the QR Code links to a picture of me looking silly. I used the website qrstuff.com to generate the original code then deleted some bits so that the kids needed to answer the questions correctly etc. It gives them a real reason to have their phone out too!

QR Code Puzzle 13 - Sequences

Find the next term in each sequence - if it is even, colour in the square, if not, leave it blank. Use a QR scanner and it links to a great song by Andy Burrows called ‘Keep On Moving On’, which was as close as I could get to a song about sequences! I generated the QR code using qrstuff.com.

Find the answers, colour in the correct squares then scan to get Madonna’s ‘Substitute For Love’ (the best I could do). QR code generated using qrstuff.com.

Easter Bunny Distance-Time Graphs

There are four activities. The first is reading from a distance-time graph of one of EB’s deliveries. The ere are two sets of information where you must draw the distance-time graph. The final activity is where students make their own journey then graph it. I have also put a link to a clip from YouTube of ‘Rise of the Guardians’.

Inequalities and Number Lines Codebreaker

The usual thing: answer the questions, reveal the punchline. This gives inequalities and asks students to find the representation on the number lines. The letters are jumbled up to stop them guessing the answer.
