A Powerpoint for KS3 and GCSE Foundation Students which helps them to recognise and draw nets of 3-D shapes (including Cubes, Cuboids and Triangular Based Prisms). There is sufficient material in the Powerpoint to cover a whole lesson. This could be used as the lesson before teaching students how to work out the surface area of 3-D shapes.
In this resource, the pupils are taught how to recognise 3-D shapes before being scaffolded through how to draw them with worked examples of how to draw cuboids and cubes. There are questions for students to complete. The Powerpoint is quite interactive and there is also a strong cross-curricular link with Literacy.
Key stage 3 ~ year 7 ~ complete lesson on colour. In this lesson students will describe the relationship between light wave frequency and colour, explain what hapens when light is dispersed and describe how the primary colours combine to make secondary colours.

This 15-page resource consists of a set of short writing tasks, and formal essay questions in the style of AP and IB examinations. The initial tasks focus student attention on significant aspects of each scene, and build up a full understanding of what Oscar Wilde is trying to achieve, how he is trying to achieve it, and how successful he has been. The scene-based questions can, additionally, be used as a basis for class discussion, and the essay topics as an invaluable tool for pre-examination revision and rehearsal. At a time-saving level, teachers will be relieved of the need to develop their own units of study for the work, and to seek out relevant questions from past examinations. The resource effectively promotes the Common Core State Standards CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.9-10.1-6 and CC.ELA-LITERACY.RL.11.12.1-6.

I have written nearly 10,000 words of comments for numeracy and literacy. They cover all aspects of maths as well as writing, reading and speaking & listening. I have used these for year 5 but you can definitely take some out for other year groups. The comments are set out in both boy and girl comments so you don't have to change the gender.

The Terrific Trio (and Dave) go Treasurehunting
Take your students on a good old-fashioned Enid Blyton style adventure. They must solve the questions throughout the story to help the terrific trio (and Dave) in their quest.
Massive literacy component to this 2000 word story.
Ideal for students around Grade 5/6/7 level (there is no Higher tier only content, but some of the puzzles are fairly challenging and require higher level understanding)
This 9 page activity could easily go into 2 or 3 lessons if you wanted it to, and contains puzzles on the following topics:
Vector arithmetic
SOH CAH TOA
Circumference and area of circles and semi-circles
Transformations - reflection, rotation, translation
Compound area
Volume of prism
Draw graphs of the form ax + by = c
Speed
Extract:
It was the summer holidays. Archibald, Beatrice, and Cassandra were outside enjoying their picnic of potted meat sandwiches and lashings of ginger beer, when they saw Dave come rushing down the lane with a battered old book in his hand. Dave was their younger, less pretty, and more dopey sibling. Archibald, Beatrice and Cassandra didn’t like to tell him this to his face – mainly because they didn’t like looking at his face. But he was their brother, and they loved him all the same.
“I’ve just found this in Aunt Mathelina’s library,” panted Dave, out of breath from running through the village. “It’s a book.”
“No way. A book? In a library? Whatever next?” piped up Beatrice sarcastically.
“Shut your mouth, Beatrice. It looks really old. I’ve flicked through it and it seems like a history of the island. There’s a page that says there has been treasure hidden around here somewhere for hundreds of years, but it’s yet to be found.”
“Golly, that sounds frightfully exciting!” exclaimed Archibald. Archibald loved a good adventure, almost more than he liked potted meat sandwiches and ginger beer. “Where do we start?”
“Well,” said Dave, “there’s a map here. It says something about victors. What are victors? Wasn’t our great-grandad called Victor? Maybe he has something to do with it.”
“VECTORS, you muppet. It says VECTORS. Give it here,” muttered Cassandra as she grabbed the dusty book and read the first of what was to be many puzzles in their adventure….
In order to make my marking more relevant to individual students' needs, while at the same time maintaining a certain amount of work/life balance, I have started a bank of Maths stickers designed to help me write less, while marking more. Ofsted commented last week, Jan 2015, that it also allows students to raise their own concerns and questions, thereby displaying progress over time in an outstanding manner, developing their communication skills, and pushing their learning outside of the students' comfort zones. If they are of any use to you, please feel free to alter/adapt as you see fit.
