A calculated colouring activity in which students create their own Christmas card featuring a jazzy Christmas jumper! Students have to answer the questions in order to reveal the colours to shade the jumper. The questions feature all four operations, powers, brackets and roots so they will offer good practice on using a calculator properly. Once complete and coloured in they can add their own greeting to the front and the inside of the card.
This makes a great task for the end of term and gives the students a nice card to take home, with all the maths on the back of the card for them to show off!
The resource includes full instructions, a clear solution and ideas for how to extend students who finish. It can easily be made into a full lesson by combining it with other resources from our Christmas bundle.

Double lesson on titrations for GCSE AQA triple chemistry.
This is applicable to any specification; the titration calculations are broken down step by step.
The lesson begins by going back to gas volumes as a recap and consolidation and finishes with an exam style question that students often lose marks on.
You may wish to spend 3 lessons on it: general intro and practice using the equipment, the titration then calculations.

AQA GCSE Physics and Science Trilogy. Differentiated calculation questions from foundation to grade 9.
Designed using colour coding and backwards fading to support and challenge.
A student workbook with A Level examination questions along with an accompanying teacher PowerPoint which explains how to solve the questions.
The resource goes through several calculations and question types involving a stage micrometer and eyepiece graticule. The PowerPoint and student workbook both have a step by step example of how to calibrate an eyepiece graticule and then how to use the same eyepiece graticule to measure cells and cellular components. The size of cells and organelles are measured using the micrometre (μm) scale. One question also asks student’s to calculate magnification (M) when both the size of the image (I), and the actual size of the specimen (A), is known. A starter activity where students label the parts of a light microscope is also included in both the PowerPoint and student workbook
The A Level OCR examination questions give students practice in calibrating an eyepiece graticule and use images from microscopes. The student booklet contains 6 questions and a range of different question types (calculation, written response and multi-choice) where students use their calculations of the eyepiece graticule to calculate the actual size of some real example images. Useful for exam practice and to build understanding of a tricky topic. Answers included in the animated PowerPoint so that the teacher can explain each step in the calculation. There is also a teacher version of the student workbook with a full mark scheme and examiner’s feedback.

This is a collection of six colourful posters that show the basic methods for adding, subtracting, multiplying and dividing fractions. There is also a poster illustrating the connection between top heavy fractions and mixed numbers and one showing how to decide which of two fractions is larger. The illustrations make them suitable for all age groups.
Adding Fractions
Subtracting Fractions
Multiplying Fractions
Dividing Fractions
Mixed Numbers - Top Heavy Fractions
Which is Bigger ?
Print these out and use them as posters or laminate and use as revision cards.
Can also be used on a whiteboard.

This resource introduces students to calculating reacting masses using the moles method. I use this as part of the AQA Chemistry Quantitative Chemistry topic. The resource comes with an information sheet on reacting masses and accompanying question and answer sheets. The question sheet can be used to do the scale method and also with A Level students.
A worksheet to give pupils an opportunity to use a calculator to work with powers and root. Suitable for KS3/4. Questions lead to reasoning and problem solving. Extension sheet is exam questions including rounding to appropriate degree of accuracy. All answers are included.
A simple PowerPoint, showing a step by step guide to using a calculator. It includes a series of questions, with answers, and finishes with a shootout between pupils, to see who has become the 'fastest draw', when using a calculator.
