Colour by powers and roots
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising questions that include powers and roots. 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. Suitable for KS3 and KS4.
All feedback gratefully accepted.
Colour by simultaneous equations with extension
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. 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 the solution does not fit the pattern.

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.

Fractional and negative indices bingo
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.

Fun revision activity for GCSE Maths
12 cards for students to cut up, solve and then place cards in ascending order of solutions. Just a slightly different way to get students to look at revision. A range of grades to allow access for all from beginning.
When I use this with my class, I get students to work in pairs. I also give them paper to stick the cards on once order is complete and get them to write their working around the outside. I have found students to be much more engaged than if they were just given a page of questions.
The 12 included topics are: Solving linear equations x's on both sides,fractions with negative fractional powers, Pythagoras' theorem, finding area of a triangle (using 1/2 absinC), median of a box plot, HCF, Percentage loss, standard form, area of a sector, circle theorems, mean of grouped data and range from stem and leaf diagram. Most of the included topics are around the higher/foundation borderline.

Non Calculator Number revision cross numbers
Two cross numbers, some overlap questions but the second one is much harder than the first.
Topics include: fractions of amounts, converting fractions to decimals, calculating with money, highest common factor, percentage reduction, dividing with decimals, least common multiples, ratios, roots, speed distance time, rounding, percentage increase, and the harder sheet also contains standard form, surds, compound interest and harder versions of some of the other topics.
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.
