I trained as a teacher of secondary Mathematics and evolved into a Computing teacher as well. I offer mainly Mathematics resources written for the current Australian Curriculum (NSW). Luckily Mathematics is recognisable all over the world, so I hope that teachers in different countries can use some of my work.

Volume of prisms

(3)
Single sided worksheet with answers. Students are given 2 types of prisms to find volumes. Formulas are given. Students need to calculate the base area of each prism then find the volume of the prism. Some questions require the students to think more deeply and work out the original measurements to get a certain volume. (Australian Curriculum) NSW MA4-14MG uses formulas to calculate the volume of prisms and cylinders and converts between units of volume.

Times tables jigsaw

(1)
Times tables jigsaw. Can be used as a review at the end of a lesson. Can be prepared by copying the answer sheet onto different coloured sheets of paper (enough for half your class) and laminating them. Cut out all the squares from each sheet and place into a small resealable plastic bag. You would then have a class activity for pairs of students that could be reused many times.
