The Resources within this shop are all designed for the teaching of Mathematics for those in the age range 7 - 18 years old. Most resources consist of a PowerPoint lesson followed by a worksheet for the students. With over twenty nine years of experience, the powerpoint/worksheets within the shop have been used successfully by myself and colleagues over that time. As a head of department for over 15 years, the department has yearly been judged as adding substantial value to students grades.

GCSE Foundation Revision game 3

GCSE Foundation Run around game 3 This activity is aimed at Foundation students who are revising for their GCSE examination. Each round consists of four questions. Print the slides 8 to 13 on A4 paper and place one printed slide per table. Students are put into pairs (either by choice or teacher selection) and are given a copy of slide 14 and a few sheets of pieces of A4 paper. The pairs are designated a starting table and the timer (slide 2) is started. The students are then given 5 minutes to answer the four questions on that table. Once the five minutes is up the students move clockwise to the next table and start the next set of four questions and the timer of slide 3 is started. This continues until all students have completed the six tables worth of questions. The answering of the questions takes no more than 30 minutes. Students then remain at their final table, swap their answer sheet with the nearest table and the answers are produced. At this stage I go through the questions before revealing the answers. In this way the students have had a go at GCSE style foundation questions and have also seen a demonstration as to how they should have been answered. Finally, students add up their score and the highest score get a prize!

7 Resources
These resources can be used for revision with year 10 or year 11 students whilst at the same time being fun! Likewise the foundation set can be used with students in year 9 and possibly year 8 towards the end of year. Each game consists of 24 questions. Each table has a theme, such as Handling Data or Percentages or trigonometry, etc…

Multiplication Tables Game

Multiplication Tables Game

(0)
Snap or Pairs Here is a printable set of cards which can be used for one of two games. Snap The 54 cards are shuffled and divided equally between two students. Students then turn the cards up one at a time and work out the multiplication (or division) on that card. If that card matches the card on top of another player’s pile, the player who says “snap” first wins the pile of cards. The winner is the person who ends up with the entire pile of cards. Or if you choose to end the game earlier, the player with the most cards. Pairs Alternatively, all 54 cards are placed face down. Players then take it in turns to turn over two cards and work out the value for each card. If the two cards have matching answers the player puts the two cards in front of them as winning cards. This process is continued until all cards have been matched. The winner of the game is the person with the most cards in front of them.

GCSE 9-1 : Maths Assessment revision Bundle

4 Resources
A total of six GCSE Mathematics examination papers and solutions. Three foundation papers Three Higher papers with overlap from the foundation. Making it easier to assess movements between sets. The bundle also includes a spreadsheet which makes it easier to 1. collate all the students data 2. identify student weakness either individually, as a class or as a department. 3. give thorough feedback to individual students regarding topics and overall progress. Finally these questions are not available to students on the internet. Hence no chance of them cheating the night before! Finally the spreadsheet RAG rates each question per student.

This is an investigation I used to use in the early 1990's when coursework was all the rage! Ideal task for end of term. Keeps the students still focused and on task.
