This survey shows how not to do it! A great lesson for students to see that even adults make very silly mistakes and a real confidence builder for them to note how they could do it better. This resource now includes a detailed lesson plan and Worksheet for making your own survey.

These lateral puzzles have been around for many years in one form or another and they are a great way to encourage discussion, thinking and creativity. Also once you know them, you can bring them in at a moment's notice, but before using them make sure you know a few, because just occasionally a student can solve it instantly. They can be displayed on an electronic Whiteboard from the Website or you can use the PDF for printing out and handouts. In a Special needs environment they can help students to think about literal and lateral meanings.

Maths Activity suitable for KS3 and KS4. Just because Excel can create a graph, it does not mean it is the right graph to use. This lesson shows students how to choose the right graph for the right situation and exercises for developing those skills. If you are kind then you can let students use the Excel file.

This package has everything you need to teach how to make a CD / DVD / Games Design lesson. This was originally done as part of ICT, but crosses over nicely into Design & Technology or Art. It CAN be done without PCs. There is one Publisher file, but if you don't have it then use the PDF alternative file.

In my role as Internet Safety Officer, I originally did this presentation for an assembly, but have since used it to guide parents. As a workshop with questions it takes about 45 minutes, but as an assembly you might need to take out some of the slides to fit your assembly timings. There are notes in the slides if this is being presented by somebody who is not technical and the aim is to encourage discussion between parents and children.

This handy little worksheet is designed as a refresher for Spreadsheet Formulae and can be used whilst PCs are booting up or as a plenary to ensure understanding. I've used it from Year 7 through to year 11. There is also an Excel Spreadsheet with all the formulae and answers. It should be zoomed, so that you can scroll down and reveal the answers one by one.

This is a very simple multiple choice that either allows you to quickly make your own multiple choice quizzes for students to do or for students to develop their own quizzes. It's deliberately plain so that people can add their own designs and unlike most PowerPoint quiz templates this one allows you to choose any answer as the correct one. (This prevents students from simply learning the order of the quiz) It was developed to help prepare students for their Edexcel GCSE coursework and is one of the resources my colleagues keep on asking for...

These worksheets teach students about the ratings systems for games and how appropriate different games are for children. These worksheets would be useful as part of a Games Design project in ICT and in PSHE and citizenship in teaching children to be responsible about what games they play. Also added a link to the Games Based Learning collection.

A complete lesson with Slides, handouts, exercises and plan. This is one of my favourite lessons, because it opened up my students' minds to the fact that there are more OSes than just Windows and MAC OS.

This resource is a handout that enables students to create their own money board game. It is useful for revising personal finance in PSHE. In Business studies it can be used to revise Marketing and Competition. Students will need paper, colouring pencils, sellotape and scissors to make the game.
