24 questions on various GCSE topics with answers on the second page. You can adapt this to the needs of your own class as you wish. Please do the questions yourself before you set a time for your own class to complete them. The aim is to complete the most answers correctly in a selected time frame (typically 5-15 minutes depending on the ability of your class). Once they are getting consistent full marks, they should aim to beat their time. Enjoy!

This resources gives examples of where the nth term can be used in a real life context. There are some cross-curricular links (history, science, PE) and there are many other ways in which it can be adapted to suit the needs of your class/school.

A differentiated worksheet of worded problems. Extension included. Worksheet given after a group activity of sharing counters. Students are given a different amount of counters each and the task is to share them between their group equally. They derive the formula themselves (conclusion at the top of the sheet 'add them all together and divide by how many people in the group') (a few may recognise its the same as finding the mean) Class discussions - what if there's a remainder, how can they be divided?
