I love resources that ensure all pupils are able to access & feel confident within lessons. It makes me sad when a pupil feels stressed because they don't get it. I love hearing a pupil say "I am on it miss".
All resources for main part of lessons are differentiated to 3 if not 4 levels of progress.
Starters are mixed ability so that I can get pupils to feel confident in areas they struggle on.
Any queries please email me; shacostello@gmail.com

Prove to me! Instructions...
• Pupils to work in pairs.
• Pupils to solve the problems together,discussing common misconceptions and where pupils have got their incorrect answer from.
• This allows you as teacher to discuss classic mistakes, common misconceptions and also to show different methods of solving problems.
• Great to encourage pupils to use mathematical language and develop oracy skills within maths lessons. Really engaging tasks for the pupils.

RAG catchphrase, Red easy going to purple which is hardest. Something to engage pupils and get them answering as many questions as possible while challenging themselves. Pupils complete as many questions as possible moving them from easy (the red task) to amber (little harder) and then green. My class really enjoyed guessing the catch phrase after the task was complete. Works a treat to get more challenging classes engaged.
