Scatter Graphs - Lesson and GCSE Questions

(125)
This is just a lesson on scatter graphs that I wanted so that I could just hand out one booklet and then teach the class without the faff of them drawing axes etc. It goes from simple plotting to describing correlation to using a 'line of best fit'. Two sets of questions depending on which Key Stage you are teaching.

Christmas Codebreakers

(87)
Three codebreakers ranging from easy to difficult as you go through them, but all with a Christmas joke (made up by me, so I apologise now) and with all the questions being Christmas-y too. All sorts of topics covered. Hopefully errors corrected (I found one on each sheet!).

Storage Hunters - Percentage Change (Profit/Loss)

(45)
If you've not seen Storage Hunters on Dave (or the equivalent channel in your country) then you are missing out, but this activity uses the concept of someone buying something and selling it on, hopefully for a profit on their part. The students must read carefully then calculate the percentage profit or loss.

Defuse The Bomb - Fractions, Decimal, Percentages

(42)
The Mathematician, that notorious terrorist, has put a series of bombs around the country, but each has a clue to defuse it. These cover many aspects of fractions, decimals and percentages and are numbered so that they get increasingly difficult. As I say, my classes like these as starters/plenaries, hence there are so many.
