Solve the algebraic equations and use the answers to find the solutions to the codebreaker riddles in these two algebra puzzle worksheets. Fun starter activities or revision exercises for secondary maths lessons.
The set includes pdf versions of two algebra puzzles of different difficulty levels plus full answers.
Factorising Algegraic Expressions for KS3
This individual powerpoint presentation is from the KS3 Maths Topics Series.
It contains 23 slides (Plus a title and end slide), so there are lots of examples. This is an ideal resource which you will enjoy using to explain Factorising Algebraic Expressions to your classes for years to come.
The powerpoint explains:
Factors
Factorising Algebraic Expressions
This PowerPoint is a series of lessons (120 slides), aimed at preparing students for the WJEC Additional Mathematics qualification.
This resource covers:
• Quadratics
• Algebraic fractions
• Surds
• Indices
• Completing the square
• The Factor and Remainder Theorems
• Simultaneous equations
• Proof
These are examples, practise questions and examination level questions.
A fully resourced algebra lesson for being able to substitute in values as part of algebraic expressions to then be able to calculate the answer (e.g. n = 6 so 5n - 3 is the same as 5 x 6 - 3) in Year 6 based on the objective from White Rose Maths.

**Solving equations to find the missing letters of the alphabet! **
Suitable for the Algebra topic for KS2 children who need a challenge!
Page 1 in the format ‘2x + 3 = 11’
Page 2 is tricker and involves division with algebra.
Could be split in half, with one half of the class on Page 1 and the other on page 2, then coming together at the end to reveal the whole alphabet. I also used this one-on-one with a tutee.
ANSWERS INCLUDED
For Printed and Interactive Use!
Helpful comments embedded.
Perfect for teachers and tutors.
Dyselxia-friendly!
Sans serif font.
Font size 12 minimum
Clear spacing
A fun way to solve algebra equations for children who are excelling with algebra. I actually used this with a Year 3 tutee (!) but this was very unusual. I would recommend it for Y4 and above definitely. Suitable for Y6 and even Y7 as a fun starter.
Page 1 requires knowledge of solving 2-step algebra equations.
Page 2 requires knowledge of dividing 3 digit numbers by 10 and using division in algebra.

This resource is a 4 day unit on algebra in year 6. It includes a simple introduction to algebra, area of rectangles and triangles using algebra, and equations. It includes the Activinspire charts to accompany each day, plus the relevant work. Work is differentiated by 3, in line with the maths expectations for fluency, reasoning and problem solving.
**Factorisation - Year 8 Interactive Lesson and Activities | Algebraic Expressions**
This amazing factorisation for year 8 is a completely interactive lesson and activity designed for ks3 learners. In this lesson, learners will understand that factorising is the reverse process of expanding brackets. A factorised answer will always contain a set of brackets. Pupils will be able to factorise an expression fully, take out the highest common factor (HCF) of all the terms. This fun-packed lesson with differentiated questions will give pupils ample opportunities to practice how to simplify and manipulate algebraic expressions by taking out common factors.
The lesson can be used as whole class teaching by teachers and at home for home learning.
With lots of drag and drop activities as well as instant feedback.
Contains 26 interactive slides.
Catchphrase Interactive Game
Interactive whole-class, small group or 1-1 activity to assess knowledge of simplifying algebra.
Slides contain 36 tiles, which remove when clicked. Students take turns to answer questions and teacher clicks to remove each corresponding tile.
Each slide reveals a ‘say what you see’ catchphrase, and the winner is the first to correctly identify the catchphrase.
Catchphrase under the tiles is: A-cute Baby
A few years ago I wrote a set of notes for pupils and put them on my website. The notes were supposed to be written in a pupil-friendly way, and different to notes students might find in textbooks or elsewhere on the internet. I have converted the notes to PowerPoint slides so you can download them, adapt them if needed, use them in revision lessons or perhaps give your students a set to take home with them to help them prepare for exams. The chances are there will be a few mistakes here and there, so if you spot any please email me & I will correct them. Hope they are of use!
A PDF of many of the type of problems that students need for higher level at GCSE,
I originally designed this for Year 11 revision, but often used it when introducing the topic or giving homework.
The sheet is comprehensive and will hopefully cover all that you need.
I hope you find it useful.
Please leave feedback, especially if you like my work - thank you.
Getting students to understand that letters in equations are simply unknown numbers is the first step to successfully teaching algebra, without them stressing too much.
