6 Mixed Maths Homeworks for Foundation GCSE

(10)
In this resource are 6 homeworks of varied past exam paper questions. Each have a front cover sheet indicating the question category, description and number of marks allowing for easy tracking and gap analysis for both teacher and student. Each homework comes with markscheme and scanned written solutions. These homeworks were designed to run alongside the 1 Year SoW GCSE Maths Foundation for Edexcel 9-1 already uploaded to TES (see my shop). But they are perfect stand-alone homework resources as well.

Here are the lessons I have made so far that run alongside the ‘Edexcel Level 3 Maths in Context Project Book’ for Core Maths. There is one PPoint for each Investigation in the textbook from Chapters 1-4. Answers also cropped in from the free to download answers PDF for the textbook. Chapters 5-8 available in my shop.

9-1 GCSE Maths Specimen Paper SOLUTIONS with Question Categories Cover Sheet (Edexcel)

Scanned PDFs of the GCSE Maths Foundation Specimen Papers produced by Edexcel for the 9-1 release. These papers also have my own design front page rather than the Edexcel version. If you just want these papers without the solutions you will find this in my shop. Our students found these useful for revision. Once a paper is complete and marked they can identify topics that they need to work on and improve. Equally, if using a paper for revision, students can quickly navigate to the topics they need to focus on first.

Sample - Maths Escape Room (Online)

This is a free sample version of the full game that can be found in my author page. (Direct > https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/resource-12680052) In the full version: Get your students a device and set them free on this GCSE Maths ‘escape room’ (which actually has multiple rooms). There are 7 levels, each level has a puzzle and a challenge. The puzzle is not particularly Maths related; the challenges are. This escape room is based around Number (future ones planned around other key areas…), topics covered in the challenges are: Times tables Long multiplication/division & checking answers Definitions (crossword) Equivalent fractions Percentage of amount Adding & Subtracting with negatives Currency conversion There is also a ‘bonus’ at the end which allows a student to catch up if they forgot to write down some key elements whilst moving through the game, this has another 7 Maths questions. Questions are all pitched around GCSE foundation level. I hope students (and maybe teachers) will find this fun, it would be a good light-hearted revision lesson or end of term lesson. I imagine most classes will take around an hour completing the game. If they finish early, they could be encouraged to think about designing their own. There is a ‘login’ on slide 1 which allows teachers to jump to the different levels in one-click with the password.
Level 3 CORE Maths in Context Lessons Ch5-8

Level 3 CORE Maths in Context Lessons Ch5-8

As promised here are the other lessons I have made that run alongside the ‘Edexcel Level 3 Maths in Context Project Book’ for Core Maths. There is one PPoint for each Investigation in the textbook from Chapters 5-8. Answers to the textbook questions were available for free here on Pearson’s website, but I think may have been removed. Please feel free to contact me if you need them. Unfortunately as it currently stands I am not teaching CORE maths in the coming year, therefore time that I was going to spend brushing these resources up and putting together the last few chapters will need to be used for other things. Apologies therefore if there are mistakes in these resources or they are a bit lacking in comparison to the previous ones. Do note that I haven’t given up altogether on these resources, I still plan on tidying these up and improving them and releasing resources for Ch9-12 in the future.
Report Writer - Microsoft Excel (create you own templates)

Report Writer - Microsoft Excel (create you own templates)

Hoping to make Excel easy! Here is a spreadsheet that allows you to create your own report templates and then merge them together for your students. I have done all the hard bits for you, you simply write the templates, then put in the student names and bits of data you wish to include and then pick the template/s you wish to apply to that student and the report will automatically generate. The spreadsheet is fully adaptable and should work for many different scenarios. I have also written a short guide for anyone who needs it. This is the third resource in a little series of spreadsheets I have been producing recently (see my shop).

This is a complete SoW mainly aimed at resit students in FE environment, though the resources are very versatile and could easily fit into any Maths GCSE SoW. Our whole department has come together to create this SoW throughout the year and we are very proud of it. There are things we plan on tweaking and improving for next year for sure, but it has been very successful and we hope for some excellent grades in Summer! There are a whopping total of 36 lessons with all resources included, all for free! Many have been made from scratch though here and there you will see influence from sources such as Pixi Maths (Amazing). There are 6 assessment available separately from my shop. There are some recurring themes through the lessons such as a 1-10 starter (10 quick questions based on simple 1 mark GCSE questions and encouraging good memory of core topics), differentiated resources and a good mix of strategies including the odd game and video. Update 25/02/2022 To be released at some point over the next few months is a massive update and overhaul version of this scheme of work that was developed over lockdown and this year. I will release a few lessons for free, the whole scheme of work will be a paid for resource.
