I wrote this for introducing my year 7s to using formulae but I have also used it for weaker KS4 students.

problems with dependent probabilities intended to be solved usind tree diagrams. Last one more challenging having 3 variables

I use this for weak students who are really struggling with multiplying out brackets. It gives practice in a way that makes it easy to see what to do.

I wrote for a lower set after examples from the board. I usually give students the choice of where to start as my classes are very mixed. With a bottom set it can take most of a lesson but I may also use as a quick starter for more able pupils.

This is a 'quality of communication&' type Maths question prepared for a student who is a competent rider . It can however be used for any student although there are aspects of terminology that may need to be explained. The circle points on a ridden circle would be the points at 0, 90, 180 and 270 degrees. It could be simplified by moving length of trot stride to 1m.

I use this with a supply of large squared paper and scissors to allow students to do a concrete activity with low ability classes or as a quick starter with other groups

Practice for a mixed higher tier set from grade 4 to grade 8/9 with answers. The solution to the extension task is only one possible solution but is the one I think easiest. I generally let pupils choose where to start depending on targets and ability.

I did this as a consolidation task for my mixed ability year 7s after work on coordinates and finding equations of lines and found that they engaged with it well. There are 2 copies of the task on the first page and worked answers on the second

Written for lower ability KS 3 but I also use for a starter in K S4 . I give students the choice of where to start and they work through generally with the use of mini white boards. I generally mark in class but faster pupils may check their own work with a calculator.

Written for a class with a large ability range, just practice after demonstrating on the board. I usually let pupils choose where they begin and work in pairs or small groups with mini white boards but record their answers in their books.
