Worksheet and matching powerpoint covering -x^2 + bx + c in the form (x+a)^2 + b -a x^2 + bx + c in the form a(x+b)^2 + c Finding turning points Solving with completing the square 3 lessons worth of stuff

Worksheet. Interpreting/Representing data. A selection of misleading/confusing graphs culled from newspapers and online. Useful to talk about the difference between misleading and confusing/wrong.

Just the cosine rule. Finding the side Finding the angle Example problem pairs (see https://berwickmaths.com/ for an explanation of this) and some questions. Not much of putting it all together but a quick exercise in picking which rule to use. There is an exam question included, a hard one that involves using cosine and then basic trig to find an angle. I did this over two lessons. Finding the side was one lesson, finding the angle the next lesson

Lesson on measuring and constructing bearings. No calculations here, making that as a separate lesson. Covers compass points as well.

Quite an unweildy title. Some example problem pairs and quite a lot of discussion work. Maybe needs another ‘regular’ drill exercise, but there’s a million websites that will generate those for you

Just a quick little PowerPoint and worksheet. Finding percentage increase/decrease. There’s no multipliers here. I teach that as a separate lesson usually.

Designed to be used as a starter to get students to understand what a system of equations IS. Place in the Venn diagram pairs of coordinates that fit each section. Hopefully the pupils think it takes ages by trail and improvement. Then you say “Well, I have a method for solving these much more easily” You introduce the substitution or elimination method and they all look on, enraptured by the mathematical knowledge you’re imparting and the ‘short cut’ to doing these questions you’re showing them. No answers are provided as there is a infinite set of answers either side of the intersection.

As comprehensive as I could make it (without involving calculations) Rounding starter Upper/Lower Error intervals Discrete bounds Bounds with weird rounding Worksheet is a mirror of the questions on the PowerPoint 5 exercises with answers included

Simple but comprehensive. Example problem pairs for discounts and increases in prices. 3 exercises for students to do. Worksheet included. Please comment and rate if you find this useful. I feed on the attention.

CHANGELOG 22/09/2021 - Corrected the second exercise Covers a few cases eg -Root 8 = 2 root 2 -2Root8 = 4Root2 -Simpifying with fractions and canceling a common term. A not huge. A starter. A little activity on what is a surd. A good amount of example/problem pairs. Two question sets. Some exam questions and five quick questions at the end. Included worksheet is merely a copy of what’s on the PowerPoint.

Really simple resource. Changing the subject when you need to factorise. Split into three sections -If your terms are already grouped -If you need to group them -If you need to multiply across and then regroup. Example problem pairs and exercises for all, although the exercises aren’t anything very exciting at all.

Talks about equivalency before moving onto simplifying Example problem pairs, exercises for both. The PDF here is just a print out of the questions from the PowerPoint

Loads of stuff here. (But no rearranging that requires factorisation) Example problem pairs. At least 5 different activities. A discussion about what it means for something to be the subject of an equation. An activity just asking pupils if the first step is correct (I think this is quite important). Some mini whiteboard work. A stardard exercise. An activity where they have to rearrange scientific formulas (is SMSC still a thing?)

Really quick PowerPoint with two activities. I wrote this to introduce tables of values separately from straight line graphs, as I found some students got really muddled when jumping too quickly into this topic.

Just a simple powerpoint lesson. Example problem pair, followed by some questions, some discussion an exercise and some UKMT problems.

It’s CHRISTTTTTMMMAAAAATHSSSS All you need to run a full lesson with a mathematical cristmaths quiz. Designed to be accessible to all. Starts with a bit of Shakin’ Stevens asking students to tally various things he sings and notice bits of the really creepy video : - ) Goes onto a bit of converting time, some Suduku stuff, some Chris moyles Maths quizes and a bit of spot the mathematician. Have fun and have a wonderful Christmas Richard

CHANGELOG : Massively updated 23/09/2021 to clean up a lot of stuff and add a section on identifying how many significant figures are in a number. I also collated the activities into a worksheet. 20/9/22 : Changed the worked examples to avoid duplicate digits. Full lesson. Starts with a pattern spot (you could use mini whiteboards), moves on to some increasingly difficult problems, then a lovely pixel puzzle.

Simple PowerPoint. Starter Example/Problem Pair Some whiteboard work Two exercises (one probably needs printing, the worksheet is included in this pack) and a plenary Veers into decimals, but not too heavily. Enough to push, but also little enough to ignore if you’re not quite there yet.

Starter Some example problem pairs Some whiteboard work and an exercise on plotting coordinates and making shapes. Then an exercise on translating coordinates (ie 1 right , 3 up from (8,7)) and an exercise on reading x and y values from coordinates. Then a plenary. About 2 lessons worth.

ppt on collecting like terms. Includes: Discussion on what a like term is Some basic questions Questions about algebraic perimeter Questions on algebra pyramids A problem solving task involving an algebraic magic square Two learning checks.
