An activity to simplify algebraic terms/ collect like terms. Is suitable for KS3 and Foundation KS4. Students solve questions and may then colour solutions to create a pattern. Lovely to brighten up classrooms with students work.

As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising finding the gradient from linear graph equations. Most will require rearranging and/or muliplying/dividing in order for the gradient to be found. 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. The solution is the pattern displayed. All feedback gratefully accepted.

As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising solving linear inequalities. It also covers the concept of < and > being different looking at x>1 and 1 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. The solution is the pattern displayed. All feedback gratefully accepted.

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. Two solutions do not fit the pattern and students are encouraged to find their own questions that will fit the pattern allowing for stretch and challenge. The solution is the pattern displayed. The white spaces are where students are required to find solutions that do fit the pattern. All feedback gratefully accepted.

Resource contains ppt, teachers question card with a choice of three questions per solution, instructions and bingo cards. Like other maths bingo games, this often aids discussion of solutions and as it is in a win-able game format, aids engagement too. Laminate the teachers question set. You can then use a whiteboard marker to mark off and keep track of which questions you have asked. It will then wipe clean when you are done ready to use with another class. When you are ready to play, either cut up the bingo cards included or get students to draw 3x3 grids in their books. Then get students to choose 3 numbers from each line – this allows you to have more control when you are ready to complete the game by picking a max of three questions from one of the rows until you are ready to complete the game.

A multiple choice worksheet to revise foundation topics that include: collecting like terms, expanding double brackets, finding the area of a triangle, nth term, metric units, types of number, angles in a triangle, expanding single brackets, shapes and angles in parallel lines. Students solve questions which gives them a letter. Once they have all the lettered solutions, they rearrange them to find the name of a band. Solution is Maroon 5

You can then use a whiteboard marker to mark off and keep track of which questions you have asked. It will then wipe clean when you are done ready to use with another class. When you are ready to play, either cut up the bingo cards included or get students to draw 4x3 grids in their books. Then get students to choose 4 numbers from each line – this allows you to have more control when you are ready to complete the game by picking a max of three questions from one of the rows until you are ready to complete the game.

A selection of powerpoints with exam questions with the question part removed to generate discussion and to aid revision of several mathematical topics. The actual exam question is provided on the next slide, but don’t feel that you have to show that to students as the idea is to see what they can come up with and carry that through. These questions would appear on the foundation GCSE Maths paper but would also be very suitable for younger year groups. Question topics include: labeling circles grouped data ( - this could also be used with a higher tier group covering cumulative frequency and histograms) Points on an axis - could be used for midpoint or length of line using Pythagoras’ theorem or even the equation of the line that passes through both points Types of number and several more There are 14 seperate topics in total

A multiple choice resource to aid teaching/revision of ratio. Students solve the questions which gives them a letter. Once they have found all the letters, they will need to rearrange them to give them the name of a story/film. Solution is Robin Hood

11 ppt starters. Each contains between 4 and 5 questions around grade 4 of the new 1-9 GCSE. Topics include: expanding brackets, multiplying with decimals, angles in parallel lines, area and circumference of a circle, nth term, Pythagoras' theorem, indices with algebra, mean of grouped data, volume, products of prime factors, reciprocals, solving inequalities, highest common factor (HCF) least common multiple (LCM), substitution, percentage reduction and calculating with indices. All topics come up at least twice to allow for simmering. The cover picture shows the first slide of starter 1. All ppts contain solutions (worked solutions where appropriate). Hope this saves you some valuable time! All feedback greatly received.

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.
