Color by exponents and roots (american spelling and terminology)
As the title suggests, this is a coloring sheet for practising questions that include exponents and roots. Unlike other maths coloring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colors and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the questions and color based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed.

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...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.

What could the question be? (exam style questions)
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
Substitution dartboard
This resource can either be cut up into worksheets to stick into pupils books or they can be laminated to use as show me boards.
It contains two dartboards with a variety of substitution questions. The values to be substituted in have been left blank for the teacher to decide. This allows for difficulty to be determined against the ability of the group e.g. positive, negative and fractional/decimal numbers.
If laminated, the sheets can be printed back to back and then students can write their answers in with whiteboard pens and then rub off and try with more challenging numbers. This creates a very visual afl activity.

Colour by substitution 2 with extension
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising solving questions where substitution is involved. It covers adding, subtracting, multiplying, powers, roots and order of operations including 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. 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.

Colour by sequences with extension
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.

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.

colour by simplifying surds with extension
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. 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 surds etc (includes indices with fractional and negative powers)
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising multiplying with surds, square roots, and calculating indices with fractional and negative powers. It also covers multiples and common multiples as students are asked to colour answers that are multiples of two in one colour, multiples of three in a second colour and common multiples in a third colour. Unlike other maths colouring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colours and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. The solution is the pattern displayed.

Colour by indices with algebra with extension
As the title suggests, this is a colouring sheet for practising the power rules with indices e.g. a^3 x a^2=a^5. It covers multiplying, dividing and brackets with some containing both 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. 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.
