Missing parts of ratios

(6)
This resource is designed for low ability year 7 and 8, but could be adapted for use in primary schools. Students are given a ratio and the amount in one part of the ratio and have to work out the size of the other part(s) of the ratio. The worksheet starts off using boxes and two part ratios allowing them to physically mark the parts into the boxes, then introduces three part ratios and no boxes enabling them to use any method they prefer. This worksheet is adapted from one by bballard (thank you) and is RAG differentiated.

Simple Equations jigsaw

This is a jigsaw using simple one-step equations only. Some solutions have been used more than once to make it more challenging. Once completed, it forms an equilateral triangle.

Drawing Quadratic Graphs

(0)
This is a scaffolded resource for drawing quadratic graphs designed for a low ability year 10 group. The questions have been adapted from an original resource by Tristanjones (thank you for that), I have just added some scaffolding. It includes completing tables, finding coordinates, plotting them and drawing the quadratic graphs. Answers are included but I have plotted the coordinates with larger dots than usual and haven’t joined them up to complete the curves. You can decide how much scaffolding you want to include and adapt the resource accordingly.

Identifying Vertically Opposite Angles

This worksheet focuses on identifying vertically opposite angles. It is differentiated and was designed for a bottom set year 8 using coloured dots rather than letters to mark the angles given. Answers have also been included.

Multiplication and division of decimals jigsaw

(0)
This jigsaw forms an equilateral triangle when completed. I used it as a resource to practice multiplication and division of decimals by decimals. It also serves as a self assess resource because the students know that their answers are correct if they are printed on one of the triangles. The rearranging of the jigsaw is a problem solving task to encourage thinking.

Solving Simultaneous Equations by Elimination

(1)
This worksheet is designed to solve equations by elimination. I wrote this worksheet to give positive values of x and y only for the 12 questions in the main section (as I couldn't find one online at the time) because I wanted to check their skill at solving them and not their skill at calculating with directed numbers. I wrote the challenge section to provide some differentiation in the lesson as each of these gives 1 positive and one negative solution - the last one involves decimals too.

Multiplying Decimals

(0)
I recently taught my group this method of multiplication (as they so often get confused with all the zeros in the grid method) and so wanted to go onto decimals while they could hopefully still remember the process as it puts the point in for you so nicely. There are 4 sets of questions ranging in difficulty and copies of the grids for each set of questions are attached - including one for you to use for worked examples. Sorry, no answers with it.
