A bumper collection of resources for Factorizing Quadratics, including various activities and games and plenty of practice questions, which also include the other types of factorising required for KS4 or National 5 in Scotland.
- Jokes and riddles for factorising trinomials
- Catchphrase for factorising trinomials
- Quadratic problems for real life problems, with trinomials, completing square and finding roots
- Extra questions, with five pages of simple factorisation, difference of squares, trinomials and problem solving
All provided with answers
Practice multiplying and dividing
- first of all 10, 100, 1000 etc.
- then by 20, 300, 4000 etc.
- then using decimals, e.g. 1.3 x 300
A series of worksheets revising these basic skills, and a Power Point for revision
Full solutions included for all the worksheets.
This is a free-standing resource on finding the area and perimeter of rectangles.
The difficulty comes as sometimes you need to use a bit of logic by looking at the diagram to find the dimensions of the rectangles.
It's taken from a Murder Mystery Package I wrote hence it includes a small riddle element at the end. There are two levels of difficulty (A is easier than B) that both have the same solution.
Full solutions included.
A series of basic questions testing these skills:
• Use the four operations with whole numbers.
• Use simple fractions in context.
• Express numbers given in figures in words, and vice versa.
• Use money in a range of contexts.
• Interpret and use information.
• Select the appropriate unit of measurement for length.
• Measure to a required degree of accuracy
• Perform calculations in everyday contexts.
• Round to the nearest unit in context.
• Use fractions and percentages in context.
• Use 12-hour and 24-hour times for simple problems involving time.
• Select the appropriate unit of measurement for length, weight or volume.
• Order everyday objects according to weight or volume.
• Perform calculations in everyday contexts.
• Interpret and communicate information.
• Use properties of shapes.
• Use further measurement skills.
This is a free-standing resource on finding the amount of line symmetry and rotational symmetry of 2D shapes.

A fun presentation for pupils to try and guess what each magnified image is.
Can also be used in a more advanced way to try and work out the (length) and (area) scale factors between the original picture and the answer.
This is a series of questions testing basic knowledge of percentages.
They should be solved by converting the common percentages to fractions.
They start easy then introduce increases and decreases, then more difficult numbers.
Full solutions included.
This is four different whole class activities practicing times tables.
There are four versions of the same game, with increasing difficulty:
- easy multiplication, up to 7 x 7.
- slightly harder multiplication, up to 8 x 8 or 9 x 7.
- all multiplication up to 9 x 9, with few easy questions
- all multiplication up to 12 x 12.
This is a free-standing resource on fractions, decimals and percentages
It involves recognising groups of identical values like 1/10, 0.1 and 10% up to groups like 4/25, 8% and 0.08.

A Powerpoint with some introductory distance-speed-time questions, then an activity for group work:
Each group is travelling from Glasgow to London via a different method of transport
- plane
- train
- car
- coach
- cycle
-walk
A series of questions to practice learning about the straight line.
Each one is based on a real life linear relationship, which pupils investigate.
For a good class will take about an hour to do thoroughly
Skills used:
- drawing graph from data points
- working out the gradient
- working out the y-intercept
- working out the equation of a line from the graph
- using the equation to interpolate missing points
Full solutions included
Two pages of simplification, beginning easy (finding fractions equivalent to 1/2) and building up to more difficult questions (simplify 14/49).
The aim is to highlight the similarity between finding equivalent fractions and simplifying, so pupils will recognise that they are really the same thing.
Good for lower ability classes.
A series of four worksheets about domain, range and composite functions. There is many lessons work here with lots of practice.
The four parts are:
- Domain and Range
- Composite Functions
- Further Functions (combining domain, range, composite)
- Extension (proofs about linear functions)
All provided with full solutions
