New Specification Foundation GCSE & KS3 Starter spreadsheet v1.43
This is a starter spreadsheet covering most topics your students will meet in Foundation GCSE Maths. It is similar to the one I created for Higher which was awarded Maths Resource of the week and can be found here https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/mathsshed-s-starter-spreadsheet-11121752.
It is designed to save you lots of time as after an initial set up all your starters are automatically generated. It benefits your pupils by giving them lots of practice in those topics they need most, same questions but different numbers. Give them ten minutes at a number of targeted questions every lesson and they will rapidly acquire the skills required and become far more confident in their abilities.
Excellent for mastery, interleaving, frequent testing, spacing and all at virtually no effort to yourself. All you need do is display on the board and then deliver a series of micro lessons when you go through the answers.
All questions randomly generate simply by pressing the F9 button.
Practise sheet for timestables, divisions, rounding, addition and subtraction
I took the idea of race round the clock multiplication sheets from Matt7, wrote a spreadsheet that randomised the multipliers and extended to idea to a few other scenarios.
It's fairly easy to adapt, if anyone is unable to do so but wants a particular feature let me know in the comments section and I'll try update.
Enjoy.

Battleshapes - The traditional game but uses coordinates rather than grid references
Battleships has often been used in the classroom but has led to pupils being confused between coordinates and grid references, this leads to problems when numbering axes (boxes rather than lines)
Battleshapes seeks to address this by providing ships represented by a variety of 2D shapes.
HMS Square, USS Rhombus, HMS Kite etc
Pupils sink ships by hitting the corners of each shape.
The resource is a Powerpoint file and is fully editable. To add some differentiation I have included sheets where the grid is numbered, partially numbered and not numbered.
An additional sheet is included for those who prefer to talk about vertices rather than corners.
As with any resource, please make sure your school pays for the resource and not you.
Mathsshed's Linear Sequences Spreadsheet
This spreadsheet has been designed for use in a couple of ways.
1. as a learning resource for pupils to use in their own time
2. as a lesson to be displayed on the board
First are sheets that show how to find a sequence and specific terms in a sequence from the nth term. This is followed by a sheet of 24 questions.
Next is a sheet showing how the nth term is found from a sequence and a sheet of 24 questions follows that.
Finally there is a sheet describing the nth term of descending sequences and a sheet of 16 questions for practice.
All lesson sheets have randomly generated examples that can be refreshed until the learners have a firm grasp of what is required.
All practice sheets have randomly generated questions and macro buttons that allow answers to be revealed as a whole or individually.
Make sure you enable macros and pass on any costs to your school. Thanks.
Mathsshed's GCSE starter with answers!!
Following the review of the original starter spreadsheet as Premium Resource of the week I was particularly taken by the line " If answers were automatically generated, I would pay triple figures" , so rewriting the way some of the questions are generated has allowed me to add the answers for all questions. To ensure the pupils can’t see them they are hidden using macros so please ensure they are enabled, the buttons are clearly available at the top.
The resource is a spreadsheet that will produce starter questions on topics of your choice. It will remove the need for you to think about the questions you are going to set, simply keep a copy of the spreadsheet for each class and switch on topics as you progress through the scheme of work. This spreadsheet is very easy to set up and gives you ten minutes at the start of a lesson to get the class settled and to get them revising the topics they have previously covered.
If you download it please review the spreadsheet and always pass on the cost of any resources to your school.
