Colour by special numbers (squares, cubes and primes)
This is a colouring sheet to get students to begin to recognise square numbers, cube numbers and prime numbers working around grades 3 and 4 of the new 1-9 mathematics GCSE. Students colour based on whether the number in each box is a square number, a cube number or a prime number. The sheet requires 3 colours per student. Due to the colouring nature of this sheet, it is very easy to see which students understand and which need support. Looks fantastic on a classroom wall once completed.
Solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by fractions of amounts
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for finding fractions of amounts. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires four different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the questions and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. It also makes it very easy to tell which students understand and which need help as their answers are easy to see from a distance. Win-win as students are pleased to see their work displayed and the classroom looks brighter. :) The solution is the pattern displayed. Suitable for KS3 and KS4.

Colour by negative numbers
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing with negative numbers. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires four different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students answer the questions and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by...averages
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising finding the mean, median and mode. Students are asked to colour answers where the mean is the biggest average in one colour, the median is the biggest average in a second colour, the mode is the biggest average in a third colour and use a fourth colour when the mean and mode are equal in value.
Questions range from very straightforward where data is in order and gives integer solutions to more complicated ones which include non-ordered data and/or decimal solutions. A small few also contain negative numbers. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires four different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the questions and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by solving equations 2
As the title suggests, this is the second colouring sheet for practising solving linear equations. It also focuses on practising expanding brackets and collecting like terms. It contains some equations with fractions and equations with multiples xs on both sides. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the equations and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed. Suitable for KS3 and KS4.

Colour by indices with algebra
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising the power rules with indices eg a^3 x a^2=a^5. It covers multiplying, dividing and brackets with some containing multiplying and dividing. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires four different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the equations and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by sequences
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising finding the nth term. The sequences are written in the form an + b . Students use one colour when a=2, a second colour when
a=3 and a third colour when a=4. I also get the students to write the full solutions in the boxes. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. The pattern looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

The sequences are written in the form an + b . Use
three colours. Use one colour when a=2, a second colour when
a=3 and a third colour when a=4.
Colour by equivalent fractions decimals and percentages
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising comparing fractions decimals and percentages. It includes adding, subtracting multiplying and dividing fractions and decimals. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the questions and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. It also makes it very easy to tell which students understand and which need help as their answers are easy to see from a distance. Win-win as students are pleased to see their work displayed and the classroom looks brighter. :) The solution is the pattern displayed. Suitable for KS3 and KS4.

Indices with fractional and negative powers full lesson resources
This folder contains several resources to help teaching indices with fractional and negative powers.
It includes:
A power point with included starter of reciprocals and past AQA exam questions on indices
A bingo with instructions, bingo cards and teachers question card - allowing for tailoring of questions to match groups ability and if laminated, can be used with white board marker and wiped clean after each use.
A work sheet split into three sections - negative powers, fractional powers and the two combined.
An extension sheet where unknown could be the question, the power or part of the solution e.g x^-3=8
A homework sheet.
Henry’s homework - a completed homework sheet including misconceptions for students to mark and advise.
An indices colouring sheet (although this does also include some surds questions)
A tarsia activity - complete shape is diamond pattern.
Hope this helps - all feedback gratefully appreciated.
Colour by decimal sums (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division).
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing with decimals. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the decimal questions and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. It also makes it very easy to tell which students understand and which need help as their answers are easy to see from a distance.

Colour by simultaneous equations
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising solving linear simultaneous equations. It contains all levels of questions; ones that you can simply add/takeaway, ones the require one equation multiplying, ones that require both equations multiplying and ones that require rearranging/ reordering. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the equations and colour based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by simplifying surds
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising simplifying surds into the form arootb. It covers single surds and multiplying two surds together. I first created this sheet when I was looking for something fun and different for my more able students, only to find that there was very little for them. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. My students have loved seeing their work displayed on my wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.
