A handout for students doing questions on selecting cards from a pack of playing cards. When doing probability, some students have never played card games before, and they do not know what a pack of playing cards looks like. This simple sheet is a sample space, which gives students a comprehensive overview of all the types of cards in a deck of playing cards. This overview can be made smaller on a photocopier such that four of them fit on one A4 sheet of paper, which then can be photocopied. This saves photocopying and paper, and students can stick the small overviews in their exercise books. Before I issue each student with their own copy, I usually organise students in small groups, and give them a pack of playing cards, which they have to lay out on their table in the same way as on the overview. Students who have never used playing cards find this useful. When the playing cards have been laid out, we have a Q&A session on probability questions related to selecting one card from a pack of playing cards. For your convenience, the Word file is included as well, which will allow you to adapt the overview. This is a simple resource, which I hope you will find useful. Please, feel free to leave comments. Thank you.

This resource contains a set of six Mini-Mocks (Modules 1-11) and their modelled answers. Included is an overview of the 24 module headings of our scheme of work, giving you a rough idea of what the topics are in these six Mini-Mocks. Questions in these Mini-Mocks reflect the reformed Mathematics (9-1) syllabus. The questions have been selected from a range of sources while some questions have been adapted for the use in this resource. Students at our school have found the modelled answers extremely useful as it helps them to revise the GCSE Mathematics sylabus independently at home. It also has helped our students to identify types of questions which they need to further improve on. In summer 2019, our GCSE examination results increased considerably as a result of these Mini-Mocks and consequently I am developing more sets of Mini-Mocks, not only for Year 11 but also for Year 10. It would be great if you could rate this free resource. Thank you very much.
