There is a Brain in Gear activity which helps students with the factorising quadratics. Then a differentiated starter activity expanding and factorising expressions. Then the lesson walks through how to factorise quadratics with challenge questions and what it will look like for students in their exams. The essential is to factorise positive quadratics and excel is to factorise any, challenge to be able to solve. There is a slide that explains how to do this for students when they are completing the differentiated match up activity. There are three levels so I print them on green, orange and red card with the answers in blue so that the observer and yourself can see which level students are doing. The plenary activity looks at the 3 levels of challenge and students have to answer with their mini whiteboards.

There is also a 'singing plenary' where students complete the question on their mini whiteboards and then play part of simpsons.

Differentiated lesson on cumulative frequency. You can either print the booklet for students to complete or you can print the questions on coloured paper (green, orange, red) and put them in plastic wallets for students to complete using their mini whiteboards. They can move around the classroom answering the questions. The reflect on your learning is for the students as a plenary to check understanding.

Differentiated match up lesson leading students through BIDMAS. The match up activity is to be printed on green (for essential) orange (for excel) and red (for challenge). Answers to be in blue. Students then match the answers to the questions. Singing plenary which is family guy. Students to answer the questions on their mini whiteboards and then part of family guy will play.

Differentiated lesson looking at adding fractions. Green questions are adding fractions with the same denominator, orange different denominators and red is mixed fractions. Works really well if you do the glee as a plenary.

There is a starter activity recapping some of the basic angle rules with two challenge questions (answers also provided). Then students go onto the main part of the lesson and revise the circle theorems by filling in the circle theorems help sheet (answers also provided). Students then complete the worksheet looking at all the different cycle theorems. There is a singing plenary for the last part of the lesson. A singing plenary is students get to pick the correct answer, if it is correct, it will play part of family guy for them.

Differentiated lesson looking at finding the volume of cylinders from first finding the area of a circle. Leads onto finding the volume of a cone to push students onto the next level.

This resource is good for a range of different ability of students. The lesson goes through how to complete a variety of solving equations and then there is a differentiated slide for the students to complete. Green questions are the easiest, orange are the middle, red are the challenge and the purple are the super challenge. The answers are also available. There is a singing plenary activity also. The singing plenary is done by students on their whiteboards and then if they get the correct answer, then it plays part of glee for them.

Aimed at lower ability students or students seeing factorising for the first time. There is a lesson for the students and then a 'post it note' activity for students to complete. This can be done in a variety of different ways, but I but the post it notes in essential, excel and challenge piles and then students can come and collect the questions as they need them. They fill in the answer grid with the level of challenge and question number. Answers are also provided. There is a singing plenary to finish with and this is where students answer the questions on their mini whiteboards and when they get it right, it plays part of Glee for them.

Differentiated whole lesson on solving inequalities. There is a lesson that goes through how to solve inequalties with questions to complete on mini whiteboards. Then there is a match up that is differentiated in difficulty. If you print them on different coloured paper shows clear differentiation. I usually go for green for essential, orange for excel and red for challenge. Blue are the answers. And then a 'singing' plenary to finish with. Students to answer the question on their mini whiteboards and then music plays.

This resource is made for students doing the new GCSE foundation spec. There are three levels of challenge with each level of challenge having a worded question to complete also. The answers are provided too. A really good revision tool to help students practice different skills and learn where each section will be around in their exams.

Whole lesson on changing large and small numbers into standard form. The challenge is to change out of standard form. The match up activity works best when the essential questions are coloured in green, excel in orange and challenge in red. Answers are to be in blue. Students to then match up the questions with the answers.

Differentiated lesson looking at finding the nth term and the challenge finding terms in a sequence. There are questions for students to complete on their mini whiteboards and also a 3 level differentiated worksheet for the student to complete. This can then be peer assessed as the answers are on the next slide. The plenary is a singing plenary that students complete on their mini whiteboards and then part of the simpsons plays for students.

Here are differentiated GCSE questions colour coded for students to complete. These can be printed and placed into plastic wallets and students complete using their mini whiteboards. They can also be given as a booklet for students to complete. Another way is to put students into groups and then get the students to complete the questions together. This can be differentiated by which students you pick. There is also a plenary activity which can be used at the end of the lesson to assess students. I usually make students do this in silence and by themselves to reflect on the learning that they have done today. The answers are also provided.

Differentiated lesson on two way tables and calculating probabilities of certain events but also including making a two way table. There are GCSE questions for students to complete as well as questions to complete on mini whiteboards. There is also a plenary activity looking at the three levels of challenge within the lesson. I usually get students to do this in silence to get them to check their learning in the lesson. This can then be peer assessed or self assessed as the answers are on the next slide.

This is a differentiated lesson looking at factorising and expanding brackets. The essential is to be able to expand brackets, the excel is factorising and the challenge is to be able to factorise and expand. There is a GCSE booklet that is broken down into these three levels for students to complete. The booklet can be printed into 3 sections, or printed as a booklet or printed without the answers. The answers can be stuck around the room, or with the booklet.

Differentiated lesson building up to using vectors and moving whole shapes. This lesson is aimed at lower ability students. The lesson start with students moving dots left, right, up and down. Then to moving a point by a vector and then moving a shape by a vector. There is also a plenary activity that looks at the three levels of challenge within the lesson. This can be doing as an assessment at the end of the lesson so see what the students have achieved within the lesson. Answers are also provided.

Lesson starting with finding averages from a list of numbers, moving to finding mean from a table to the challenge of finding estimated mean. Presentation goes through this with students then there is a differentiated worksheet for students to complete. There is a plenary activity that I usually do in silence for the students to reflect on what they have learnt in this lesson. There are three sections looking at each of the 3 different elements of the lesson. Then get them to check their answers through peer assessment.

Differentiated lesson looking at the basics of indices (green, simplify powers, orange with brackets, red numbers in front of the x) and then there are also GCSE questions for students to complete. The GCSE questions can be printed as a booklet or questions and then give the answers. At the end of the lesson there is a 'singing plenary' which is high school musical. Students are to use mini whiteboards to answer which they think is correct. If they get it right, a song will play.

Plans and elevations lesson. Really useful if students can use 'mathlink' to build the shapes and then draw the different views.
