Cubic and Quadratic Sequence generator. Quadratic solver
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Cubic and Quadratic Sequence generator. Quadratic solver

(0)
This can be used to generate quadratic and cubic sequences and uses difference table to show the step by step solution. It also has a quadratic solver which will give the nth term of a sequence. On the right hand side there are cells that can be copied and pasted to use the sequence.
Introduction to Pythagoras
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Introduction to Pythagoras

(3)
Starts by using an video clip to demonstrate the process of the area of the two smaller squares being equal to the larger two squares. Then uses cloze procedure to quickly give the formal definition. Teaches the process using square add square root for hypotenuse. Some of the questions where orginally taken from https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-introducing-pythagoras-theorem-lesson-6208261 but have been significantly reworked. On this page however there is also an excellent group work activity that could be used with the lesson.

A collection of all the assessments that I have put together.
Adding Fractions
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Adding Fractions

(0)
This is an interactive worksheet generator that uses RAG differentiation and updates to create new questions. The different levels of differentiation are through completing worked examples before attempting the question.
Number Assesment
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Number Assesment

(0)
A collection of number topics to test: Ordering numbers, Rounding, Negative numbers, Decimal Arithmetic, BIDMAS, HCF and LCM, Prime, squares, factors and multiples.

FDPR Assessment

(0)
This can be used as an end of Topic assessment for Fractions, Decimals, Percentages and ratio.
Area of Circles
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Area of Circles

(1)
This uses interleaved worked examples, so learners can switch between spotting areas in a worked example and attempting the questions solely on their own. Starter Assumes that learners have already completed work on circumference of a circle.
Differentiated Perimeter Of Semi Circles
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Differentiated Perimeter Of Semi Circles

(1)
This (updated) lesson is based around finding the perimeter of a semi circle. Only covers semi circles. Starter assumes both area and circumference of circles as well as parts of a circle. ( Definitions taken from NCETM glossary) It has been updated to include example problem pairs. A differentiated task by gradually reducing scaffolded support. Extension sees if learners can apply to a quadrant and three quarters of a circle. Ends with a Same Structure different depth set of questions.
Circumference of circles including reverse Circumference
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Circumference of circles including reverse Circumference

(0)
Starter is through a linked powerpoint - you will need to change the location for your machine or load up separately. This flashes up the various parts of a circle learners complete with aid of powerpoint. The third slide can be printed so that students can fill in as they go. Lesson then goes through finding the circumference of a circle. Either scaffolded or not. Then onto reverse with the option of finding circumference, then reverse with or without scaffolding. Could easily be split into two lessons with one more independent exercise on finding the circumference of a circle.
Algebraic Expressions 2nd 10QQ - Difficult
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Algebraic Expressions 2nd 10QQ - Difficult

(1)
This is the second 10QQ in the Expressions series. It is ideal as a recap/consolidation or a check of prior learning. Includes a bell task with animated answers to help settle learners into the lesson first. The questions are all on timers. Follows the same format as my revision 10QQ Questions focus around learners use of multiplying expressions as well as collecting to cubes and then addition involving unknowns with powers.
Revision Powerpoint 4 10QQs
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Revision Powerpoint 4 10QQs

(0)
All of my 10QQs follow the same format, Bell task to settle the class. Introduction screen. The questions are all timed from slide to slide and the timing depends upon the difficulty of each question. At the end all answers are animated and then hyperlinks take you to an example page followed by a short task for more intensive practise of specific topics. This Powerpoint includes: Ratio to fraction conversion. Angles in Triangles. Probability Scale Percentage to decimal conversion. Simplifying fractions. Sequences Solving one step inequalities Expanding single brackets Estimating Solving two step equations.
Revision Powerpoint 3 10QQ
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Revision Powerpoint 3 10QQ

(1)
The 10 Quick Questions power points all follow the same structure. Bell Task, 10QQ with a variety of times depending upon the question. All answers are animated at the end and then the powerpoint can be navigate to provide extra support to questions that form a difficulty. Hope this proves useful.
Form Report Generator
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Form Report Generator

(0)
I have created a form report generator. The spreadsheet has the ability to input a learners name, attendance data and then various comments. Some comments have access to a comment back or can be manually entered. Others for example attendance are generated automatically. You can also personalise it to your school and year group by entering this data on the Form Info page. I use this in conjunction with a questionnaire that the learners fill it and it dramatically decreases the time taken to do reports. There are quite a lot of protections on the spreadsheet file. In order to paste your comments out then you need to go to the Report output page, then copy and paste out.
Algebraic Expressions - Basic
Mr_FantMr_Fant

Algebraic Expressions - Basic

(1)
This 10QQ is ideal as a recap or a check of prior learning. Includes a bell task with animated answers to help settle learners into the lesson first. The questions are all on timers. Follows the same format as my revision 10QQ Includes basic simplifying a collection of letters through to collecting like terms with square numbers. At the end there are examples and questions of each type which can be used as a review.
