Designed to help your students understand where pi comes from! These two lessons guide students through finding the circumference and areas of circles using commonly-found items. From this, students calculate the value of pi themselves. This provides deeper understanding of the area and circumferences equations which are routinely used. These resources have been particularly useful in the past with some weaker groups who have struggled with the abstract concept of pi and helps to promote their independent learning.

Objective: To practice:- • expanding and factorising algebra (with one and two brackets) • simplifying expressions. Directions: Print out the 2 pages of triangles for each student. Students cut them out and then try to match them to make 2 hexagon shapes. All answers are included, so you can easily check their work. The hexagons can be glued into the students books or onto paper. The questions are non-calculator. The document is 7 pages in total, but you will only need to print out 2 pages for the students.

Just a fun little display I put together from all over, and have in my classroom. Generates nice discussion and questions from students.

As the title suggests, this is a coloring sheet for practising questions that include exponents and roots. Unlike other maths coloring sheets, each sheet only requires three different colors and therefore requires fewer teacher supplies. Students solve the answers to the questions and color based on their solution. This then creates a pattern which looks great on a classroom wall. The solution is the pattern displayed. All feedback gratefully accepted.

This math maze is a great way for students to practice their skills with subtracting fractions with unlike denominators.

This cut and go puzzle requires students to match decimal operation problems with the solution. Includes addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Use in centers, as individual or group practice or even in interactive notebooks to practice decimal computation. I have used many cut and paste activities throughout the years and noticed that some students struggle to get started. To help with this I have added the word “start” to the first domino and the word “stop” to the last. The first version (page 3) is ordered in the correct order by row, left to right. The letters on the dominoes are meant to help you quickly check for accuracy. The second version (page 4) is mixed up so that students who may be cutting up pieces before playing won’t know what the answers are. Pages 5 and 6 are the same except the word stop is omitted. Want students to record and show their work? Use the optional recording sheet on the last page.

Three worksheets on factorising quadratic expressions including the cases where the square has coefficient 1 or other than 1. Solutions are included. From https://placeformath.blogspot.com.cy/p/worksheet-shop.html

This Bundle includes: ★14 Microsoft Word documents with multiplication word problems (with all answer keys included). Word problems consist of: -1 digit times 2, 3, 4 digit word problems -2 digits times multiples of 10 word problems -2 digit times 2 digit word problems -Factors & Multiples Lesson Handouts -Factors Partner Activity -Math Key Words for Multiplication, Division, Addition, and Subtraction word problems handouts/class posters ★8 Microsoft Word documents with 36 division word problems (with all answer keys included). Word problems consists of: -2, 3, 4 digit divided by 1 digit word problems with & without remainders -Problems that focus on understanding the quotient (answer) & the remainder (left-over) ★I use these word problems as extra practice, mini-quizzes, intervention groups, and for homework to supplement the multiplication and division lessons I teach. ★If you use the EngageNY/Eureka math modules, then you can put these multiplication and division word problems to supplement module 3. ★Each document is labeled for which lesson skill it matches from EngageNY. If you don’t use the modules, then that’s fine too! These word problems are great for practice and review! BONUS: ►Students often struggle with determining which math operation (add, subtract, multiply, divide) to use to solve word problems. Learning basic operations is important in math, but what is essential is to be able to determine which operation is needed to solve a specific word problem. I organized and created this BONUS bundle to give students practice to gain skills by using math Key Words to determine the operation needed to solve word problems. -The word problems in this bundle are from the Grade 4 EngageNY/Eureka Math Modules 1 & 3 (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division) and are mixed in random order with a few word problems that I created. There are one-step word problems, as well as two-step word problems.

This is a lesson intended to introduce pupils to Eulerian Networks. The lesson was initially delivered as part of an Year 7 ‘Welcome Week’ at the school. During the week there was a focus of Community and how Mathematics can be applied outside of the classroom. Although delivered to Year 7 classes, the mathematics can still be used higher in the school and beyond. It may also be an interesting activity to use with classes at the end of term as a ‘one-off’ lesson.

Great mix of practice questions on : Simple Algebra Calculating times Standard Form Changing the Subject of the Formula Ratios Percentage Increase Exchange rates Percentages Useful from Years 9-11. Can be give as homework

For those using the Texas Instruments Ti-84 graphing calculator. I made this sheet with screen shots for my grade 9 class who were being introduced to this calculator for the first time. It shows them how to input the equation, look at the table of values, change the window and find required key points.

This is a fairly detailed checklist that I am giving to my year 10’s to help them do some independent work over the summer. It shows the main areas they need to cover for each topic and to make it easy for them to engage with each part there are links to the relevant videos from Mathswatch and Corbett maths. Hopefully this will give them a headstart in their revision before next year.
