I taught in a range of schools for many years before moving into FE, where I found creative and imaginative approaches just as rewarding with adults. Most of my resources are concerned with giving control to the learner, through a range of methods. Some are great for just giving them experience of examination questions, and the chance to discuss these with other learners. I now concentrate on spreading the range of creations from UK KS1 to KS4, and across the Common Standards.

Math Grade 6 Statistics of grouped data. Data in class intervals. Practical examples & worksheets.

Math Grade 6 Statistics of grouped data. Data in class intervals. Practical examples & worksheets.

The motivation for this was the difficulty learners have with measures of centre of grouped data, and no doubt many otherlearners too. I’ve spent years trying to demonstrate the interval in which the median lies, and watched learners who appeared to follow the method for mean of grouped data, only to watch them go to pieces on tests. So this time I went for kinaesthetic and colourful, my main aim always. The documents are in Word so you can cut my photo if you want. I’ve thrown in a couple of real questions, and there are plenty more about, but very easy to make up in this style. All images (c)2015 Colin Billett

Math Probability Grades 6, 7. Lots of resources, lots of activities.

A set of great stuff for theoretical and practical lessons on probability. Lots of questions, a PowerPoint introduction that can be fitted in at any time, a quiz that could end one lesson or start another, and events for printing on cards and sorting into order of likelihood. Plus a set of questions for recap and revision. Enough for a couple of lessons, and lots of photographs that will give you and the learners ideas for creating your own questions. All images (c)2015 Colin Billett 'Investigate chance processes and develop, use, and evaluate probability models. Understand that the probability of a chance event is a number between 0 and 1 that expresses the likelihood of the event occurring. Larger numbers indicate greater likelihood. A probability near 0 indicates an unlikely event, a probability around 1/2 indicates an event that is neither unlikely nor likely, and a probability near 1 indicates a likely event. '

Maths Statistics Box (and whisker) Plots - Full lesson of stuff!

(0)
Everything you need for a lesson (or two) on creating, reading and interpreting box and whisker plots. Starter activity on PowerPoint to review stem and leaf diagrams; a presentation in PowerPoint on creating, reading and interpreting a box plot with two examples; learner activities, questions in Word or PDF; a plenary presentation in PowerPoint to check learning; and a lesson plan to make the whole thing complete.

Math Statistics Grade 8+; two sets multiple-choice questions. Starters, H/W, plenary

(0)
Statistics questions from a variety of UK examination papers, suitably changed, and some new ones created to provide a full range, with multiple choice answers added by me. Not yet trailed in the classroom so please advise me of any mistakes. Great for all sorts of things, and easily cut and pasted into shorter versions. Answers to follow, but shouldn't be too difficult to work out.

GCSE Maths Higher Speed Distance and Time

GCSE Maths Higher Speed Distance and Time questions in PowerPoint. Some a bit easy, to keep the learners going, and some introducing other concepts, like bounds, gradients, and areas under a curve. A new design for use in classroom discussions or on Zoom - questions on the left of the screen with a blank space on the right for filling in the answers - great for letting the learners try their answers to the tutor or the whole class. Two versions - one with solutions after each slide, and one with solutions at the end.

Key Stage 2 Fractions - huge bundle of stuff.

13 Resources
Lots of resources covering fractions in KS2, so great for revision in KS3 and Foundation GCSE. Equivalent fractions, ordering fractions, and four rules of fractions. Addition and subtraction moves from same denominator, through one denominator a multiple of the other, to different denominators. Multiplication and division develops in the same way - simple stages. I've lots of stuff free on fractions, so check the free stuff first if you like. Save 77%!

Linear functions and graphs

Two PowerPoint lessons on straight line graphs, covering all aspects of GCSE Foundation, then Higher Tier mathematics: plot graphs of equations that correspond to straight-line graphs in the coordinate plane; use the form y = mx + c to identify parallel and perpendicular lines; find the equation of the line through two given points or through one point with a given gradient identify and interpret gradients and intercepts of linear functions graphically and algebraically Clear presentations with lots of opportunities for learner engagement, and great for use on Zoom or other distance learning opportunities. Can be used simultaneously with learners in a classroom and at home.
