A couple of worksheets I put together to try to train students in the style of questions on ratio common in the new GCSE.

A worksheet cobbled together to help students practise reading and interpreting time series graphs.

A few resources designed to help students new to the concept of forming an equation.

A complete lesson I taught on the quadratic formula.

Three activities for students struggling with understanding the meaning of algebraic notation. The second one involves students matching answers and questions.

A basic exercise to get students practising drawing angles accurately using a protractor.

A worksheet cobbled together to help students practise using correct operations with BIDMAS.

A worksheet of questions I put together to try to help students prepare for the style of questions common on the new GCSE.

A worksheet cobbled together for substituting into formula. Questions taken from CIMT and formatted to cater for needs of the class. Please note that this only focuses on substituting, not rearranging, even when the questions get harder.

A collection of resources to help with teaching angles in polygons. 1 is an investigation to help students identify the rules at work 2 and 3 are two different length activities to practise the skills students have learnt. 4 is a Spot the Mistakes activity to encourage students to identify, discuss and correct misconceptions.

An activity designed to get students to identify, discuss and rectify mistakes in an example question. Print off individually or for pairs and discuss at the board.

Structured worksheet designed to build and aid understanding of averages from a frequency table.

Resources designed to help students discover the effect of enlargements on area and volume.

A resource designed to help students practise two way tables. Differentiated to increase in difficulty. Some questions, gratefully, taken from other sources.

Students need to follow the instructions using different combinations of numbers, they should find a pattern emerging. Can be then expanded to include 4 digit numbers, and to look for exceptions.

A collection of worksheets I put together from several sources of questions to steadily develop students’ understanding of Pythagoras’ Theorem.

An activity designed to help students with misconceptions. Students need to identify, discuss and rectify mistakes in the three questions. Print out individually or for pairs and put up on the board to discuss.

I wanted to bring my maths classroom closer to the real world, and specifically the problems and changes that we face. I wanted a resource that would raise awareness of important issues in society, invite discussion in a maths classroom, and spur action. So these resources place key fraction skills in the context of society’s challenges. **Students work with fraction change and fractions of amounts. ** It provides an opportunity to practice problem solving in new contexts, and highlights the power that maths has to quantify issues and help address them. The numbers and statistics are all very close to the real numbers, often rounded to make it easier to work with in a classroom. Feel free to add your own and adjust and help take maths into the world and its challenges!

An activity I enjoy doing with all classes. Students need to identify and rectify what is incorrect in the answers. Print off copies for individuals or pairs and put on the board for a discussion.
