A worksheet on calculating the area of parallelograms with different metric units for length and irrelevant lengths also labelled.

This is a collection of resources on the topic of Square & Cube Numbers. The resources included are: • Powers & Roots Squares Game - The game squares with points for the enclosed calculation • Powers & Roots Squares Game (calculations) - As above, but trickier • Squares and cube numbers worksheet - Practice with the square and cube numbers • RANDOM square and cube number questions - Perfect as a mini whiteboard activity • Squares & cubes table - Containing the important non-calculator numbers • Squares & cubes table (inc. negatives) - Promotes thought about negative roots, and squaring negatives MORE RESOURCES TO BE ADDED IN A FUTURE UPDATE As is customary with my work, they are designed with two key principles in mind; scaffolding to develop understanding and presentation, and to promote thinking and challenge. If you enjoy them, please provide a positive review, and look out for my other collections too!

Questions designed to encourage learners to correctly present their working out when solving equations by using inverse operations. -12 questions identifying the inverse operation used between lines of working and correctly following the given operation -12 questions on independent solving (including different approaches of handling brackets and fractions)

A card sort activity that helps students model the solving equations process. The activity has 20 equations, the inverse operation between each line of working and includes some cards with blanks to be filled. Questions are labeled to ease marking and answers are included. Suggested use includes: -Cutting out the cards and getting students to arrange them in order working down. Cards are jumbled so that students can cut them out themselves. -Treat the activity as a worksheet by labeling the relevant steps with the corresponding question letter.

Solving equations containing brackets and fractions, unknown always on one side. Structure is designed to develop understanding of presentation and identifying the necessary inverse operation. 2 methods of solution and encouraged (expanding/cancelling or solely using inverse operations) -6 questions to be completed 2 ways involving stating the inverse operation or completing the line of working -8 questions for independent solving requiring application of a given method or free selection

Crosswords based on the skill of collecting algebraic terms to simplify expressions. Formatting is designed to encourage students to use correct notation and conventions (e.g. 1 isn’t used as a coefficient, alphabetical order) when writing answers. 3 separate puzzle grids containing multiple questions. Answers are provided. Skills include: -Collecting terms, including constants -Negative terms -Expanding brackets and simplifying

Given a random straight line graph students are tasked with identifying/calculating the y-intercept and calculating the gradient. This information is then used in the form ‘y=mx+c’ for the equation of the line. There are four difficulties, as outlined by the contents page. F9 is used to generate new graphs. The ‘Answer’ to each graph is hidden under a box (deliberately avoided macro use to show/reveal answer, but simple to include).

Introduction to solving equations, using a formal structure to present work. The worksheet contains a mixture of identifying the inverse operation between existing lines of working, following the given the operation and independent solving. 12 ‘one-step’ equations 8 ‘two-step’ equations 8 ‘two-step’ equations containing brackets and fractional expressions

A assortment of percentage multiplier problems designed to get students to question when to apply each type of multiplier. 12 mains skills questions, plus 3 multi-step problems. Solutions are also provided. Included skills are: -Values of amounts -Percentage change -Reverse percentage change -Repeated percentage change (inc. compound interest) -Simple interest

This is a worksheet on the topic of square and cube numbers, their roots and the index laws including expressing as a single power. Within the worksheet are questions on: The key non-calculator square and cube numbers Estimating squares, cubes and roots Applying the three index laws Solving more complex index law questions, including expressing as a single power Solutions are included. As is customary with my work it is designed with two key principles in mind; scaffolding to develop understanding and presentation, and to promote thinking and challenge. If you enjoy it please provide a positive review! Other resources on the topic of Powers & Roots made by me but focused on more concentrated skills can be found as part of my collection.

8 equation chains to be organised.
