Powerpoint for lesson on Energy / Carbs. Brief notes to outline lesson within presentation. Printable pupil sheets also uploaded - see my resources. Presentation includes youtube link - the guy is real, but he is not really looking for staff! Lots of activities here; lesson can be easily differentiated for different abilities, and length altered to fit one or two lessons. Please feedback what is good / could be improved! This is my first upload.

A fun approach to basic set notation (element, universal set, union, intersection), listing elements and describing sets in words. I've found students typically struggle with this topic and the physical sorting really helps them see what to do. Created as a revision lesson for my IGCSE Foundation group but would also work at KS3 or as a topic intro for KS4. Picture included to print (laminate) and cut out the characters for groups of students.

Includes a reminder of 8 standard circle theorems and a small selection of questions on each. Ideal after an introduction to the theorems to give students practice in applying them, without yet the added challenge of selecting the correct one. Does not include intersecting chords.

An introduction to fractals starting with working out what Elsa is actually singing in Let It Go followed by a brief video intro to fractals, drawing Sierpinski triangles on isometric paper and finally creating a pop-up fractal card. I used this over 2 lessons with a low-attaining Year 9 group in the last week of term. Could easily be used across the KS3/4 age and attainment range. Christmas, Maths and crafts all rolled into one. update the Sierpinski link is broken - you can download the activity outline here

Bingo game with questions on area and perimeter of shapes made from circles , semi circles and quarter circles. Answers are in the notes (please let me know if there are any mistakes!).

Sorting activity - square and triangular numbers represented in many different ways. Great opportunities for discussions about negative and non-integer terms, Pascal’s triangle… Includes ‘display’ version for sorting on screen with / for students. This has solutions (according to Y7) on the second slide.

An interactive display ready to print and accompanying student worksheet (for those that want to keep trying at home or to try out answers before writing them up on the wall). Based on The Year Game found at http://mathforum.org/yeargames/

A simple sorting activity to understand the difference between an equation and an identity. I used the first page for display and the second for printing. The activities are the same.

No frills FP3 revision / practise materials (Edexcel). Questions taken from MEI Edexcel resources.

This is an activity for an AS further maths revision lesson, based on the FP1 Edexcel specification. Students work in pairs and race to answer 10 questions. Thanks to Jo (@mathsjem) for the idea and template! (updated with correct answers)

Sorting activity to build familiarity with new vocab and definitions. Made for Edexcel A level Further Maths Decision 1 - Section 2.2 Graph Theory Not fancy, but I couldn’t find similar out there and they need the vocab! I would recommend the game sprouts as a fun way to apply this and the Desmos polygraph to practise using the vocabulary.

Students work in pairs to sort integers into a variety of Venn diagrams. The aim is to become familiar with the symbols for greater than (/and equal to), less than (/and equal to). Options to use outside (with chalk and a flat floor) or inside (on paper). Note the ‘deliberate mistake’ on the last Venn; the notation means there are no possible values in the red set. I’ve seen students attempt to represent two separate regions like this many times, so included it as a discussion point.
