A game to revise simple integration.
Each catchphrase picture is hidden behind nine expressions.
Randomly select a pupil, and if they can integrate their chosen expression they get 10 seconds to guess at the picture hidden below.
Is every square a rectangle? Is every rectangle a square?
An investigation into the properties of the quadrilaterals, working out their properties and which ones are similar.
Includes a look into Venn Diagrams and a couple of area challenges at the end.
Notes and answers at the bottom of each slide.
A treasure hunt to revise Fractions, Decimals and Percentages.
Print out the A4 clues and put them on the walls. Pupils can work in pairs and start anywhere. They solve any clue (e.g. 30% of 90) then find the clue with that answer on it and carry on from there.
Answers provided.
A chance for pupils to have fun with some numeracy and make a Power Point presentation researching how they would spend £1000.
Includes an example (by me) and some results from a class of 15 year olds.
A Powerpoint / PDF giving the Indices Rules with some examples - I have printed these two-sided and laminated these for lots of pupils
Also a few practice questions on Surds and Indices to diagnose what they need to practice.
This is a series of tricky challenges to complement usual class work, using a full range of maths skills:
- trigonometry
- simultaneous equations
- algebra
- fractions
- area
- logic
Can be used as extensions or homework.
Full solutions included.
This is to introduce pupils to decimals, using a context they are probably already familiar with (the time to run the 100 metres). Pupils work in pairs to complete some exercises looking up times, then get familiar with a stopwatch, then compare some decimal times.
An introduction to time. Reading the time from clocks, then difference between two times, and finally a challenge with times in the school weak.
Full solutions provided.
This is a 2-page write on worksheet that tests these basic skills:
- Lines of symmetry
- Names of 2D shapes
- 2D shapes that can be convex and non-convex
Pupils can write directly on the sheet.
Full solutions included.
Many powerpoints, worksheets and a homework with mixed revision questions.
Topic specific revision questions on the following topics, as both Powerpoints and PDFs.
Circles
Complete the Square
Differentiation
Functions
Log Graphs
M=tan theta
Polynomials
Straight Line
Straight Line & Functions
A series of examples and questions on the following topics:
Express a change in value as Percentage
Calculate Compound Interest
Reverse Percentage Change
Appreciation/Depreciation by a Percentage
Provided with solutions
A series of eight small sets of printable questions, each followed by an estimation question on the Powerpoint which uses the answers you have just calculated. The class work on the sets of questions individually then all attempt to estimate the final answer.
I have found this very effective as a general revision activity with pupils in teams, scoring points out of 5 for the revision questions, and also a mark out of 5 for the quality of each estimate.
The numeracy skills revised are:
1 - Rounding
2 - Perimeter and Area
3 - Angles
4 - Long Multiplication
5 - Units
6 - Decimals
7 - Big Numbers
8 - Time
Provided with answers.
Tired of your usual lesson starters? These six Power Points are on
- how old are you in seconds
- using coins
- a famous question solved by Gauss
- penguins
- pandas
- temperature in the UK and US
Pupils learn about money and get the chance to design their own coins.
Practices simple skills with money and deicmals, and gets them thinking about currencies in general with some extension questions.
This activity is inspired by the Scottish Independence Referendum of 2014.
A series of about 30 Power Points each with mixed starter activities testing basic numeracy of:
- whole numbers
- fractions, decimals, percentages
- money
- graphs
- symmetry
Several revision Powerpoints and mixed revision worksheets.
Many topics covered but in particular Binomial Theorem, Complex Numbers, Partial Fractions, Euclid and Proof.
All with either short answers or full solutions
Includes topic-specific revision material on the following topics, as Powerpoints and PDFs.
Binomial Theorem
Complex Numbers
Binomial Theorem and Complex Numbers
Loci of Complex Numbers
Matrices
Number Theory
Partial Fractions
Indices (revision of easier material to help with binomial theorem)
Sequences
The key to exam technique in mathematics is to solve each problem multiple times, using independent methods. You also want an independent check.
Mathematicians hate to get things wrong!
This presentation and activities will help your students from making mistakes.
