Pupils are given a map of Europe. They must plan a trip trying to visit as many cities beginning with different letters as possible and record all distances travelled. This can be then used to work out speed, costs of the trip using fuel costs per km or per mile and include conversions too. For added difficulty, pupils could use an atlas where there are different scales to deal with and apply their understanding to.

promethean board and accompanying worksheet. Worksheet A is easier than B. Worksheet B require pupils to apply knowledge to other Grade C topics (such as pythagors and area of a circle).

Percentage of amounts worksheet. Percentages core - simple 50%, 25% etc. Challenge - nastier 37% etc. Mixed - using units and words but with mostly easy %. www.mrsmorganmaths.weebly.com @em0rgan

Students must use a time zone map and an atlas to figure out real life time problems. They will need to work out a comfortable time for a family to Skype all over the world, when business share working hours, and how long different flights are. An atlas/time zone map is needed (see participating geography departments…). www.mrsmorganmaths.weebly.com @em0rgan

Students are asked to annotate around some bad graphs, explaining what is wrong. They then should answer questions like, how would you represent the data? Why is the graph unsuitable etc. I imagine this working well as a group activity. http://mrsmorganmaths.weebly.com/bad-graphs.html @em0rgan

This activity asks pupils to draw an enlarged grid for the cartoon character of their choice, then using the grid scale up the cartoon. It produces some very good wall displays and engages pupils.

!! Now with corrections - thank you commenters!! Pupils are presented with 6 different scales, some decimal, some negative. They must read off 26 different values corresponding to each letter of the alphabet. With these, a code can be cracked to reveal 3 different books that have been turned into films. Answers are in the excel file.

This worksheet separates out the trig questions, and first asks pupils to fill in theta, opposite, adjacent and hypoteneuse, then write out with trigonometric ratio they are using. Scaffolding to solve problems.

This is a very fun task getting pupils to make their own function machine. It can be used for KS2 or year 7. Pupils set their own challenge: can they use negative, decimals, squaring etc to make their robot more sophisticated?

This promethean asks pupils to investigate euler's rule and platonic solids. It includes a viseo of how a group of pupils can work together to make an icosatetrahedron. Great for an end of term!

differentiated worksheet asking pupils to substitute into different expressions. Grade E to C

This is designed to used as display. It features mathematical discoveries ranging from 50 000 BC when we started counting up to 1994 Wiles proves Fermat's last theorem. I tried to choose maths that would be recognisable and accessable to ks4 students so yes a lot is missing. I also tried to not have too much going on round the same time, which made it difficult! If you think I missed something important then please let me know (@em0rgan). All "facts" are from wikipedia so apologies if they aren't right... @em0rgan mrsmorganmaths.weebly.com

This project asks pupils to design gingerbread houses. It looks out converting between units, finding areas, surface areas, volumes, pythagoras, scale drawing, plans and elevations and more! Pupils can stick to creating a cuboid and triangular prism or be encouraged to make more wacky pyramids etc. The only constraint is that their design will fit in the set area.

This is an old idea, simplified. Pupils are given a treasure map with the names blanked out, they must use the bearings (and scale) to label each place. They are then asked to create their own to share with someone else. The solutions (clockwise) are Pythagoras' town, Jerry, Viking Bay, Jolly Roger, Sebastian, Fibonacci Village, Hidden Treasure, Black Pearl.

pupils are asked to solve some trig equations and cross off their answers on the grid. The remaining letters are an anagram for a film. (Shaun of the dead)

Provide pupils with some real life cuboids, eg cereal boxes etc. Ask them to measure the length, width and depth of each box. The worksheet is then differentiated, pupils start by finding the volume then those who are more able can find the surface area. Finally, if pupils are really confident and in their knowledge they can work out formulas for volume and surface area of cuboids.

A worksheet that asks students to draw triangles with different qualities eg. two sides the same and a right angle. Pupils must then put triangles into groups of equilateral, isosceles, right angled and scalene. As an extra challenge - can they explain why some combinations are impossible eg right angled and equilateral.

Pupils are first asked to choose which hypothesis they believe in: Pictures are easier to remember than words. Words are easier to remember than pictures. On the preomethean file, is lots of pictures and words. give the class 2 minutes to memorise and 2 minutes to write down as many as they can. Mark + record how well the class did as group data. This can then be used to find averages, cumulative frequency graph and make conclusions.

Using 1cm dotty paper, poupils are asked to doodle at design in a quarter of a square. This design is then traced and rotated into each other quarter. Finally, the whole thing is rotated around. When coloured, it makes a very beautiful and weird looking tesselation! Excellent for looking at rotations, symmetry, shape, angles etc etc etc

Table with diagrams for pupils to fill in each circle theorem. Good aid for note taking and as a revision sheet.

Goes over what a percentage is, visually. Demos finding simple % of amounts. Excellent as revision.
