Created for the new GCSE specification but also suitable for AS level and iGCSE, this activity requires students to identify errors in quadratic inequality solutions. It is designed to highlight and tackle common misconceptions.

A card sort activity for algebra basics. Sort the identities into two groups: true or false. Useful for assessing understanding and misconceptions.

Designed for the new GCSE (AQA Higher), this worksheet is for practising equating coefficients in identities. Answers are provided, plus an editable version. EDIT October 2022: I’ve added an easier version as the last time I used this, my students found it ramped up in difficultly too quickly!

These resources are for mixed-topic calculator GCSE revision. There are four levels: Foundation is aimed at students working at Grades 1 - 3 Foundation Plus is aimed students working at Grades 3 - 5 Higher is aimed at students working at Grades 4 - 6 Higher Plus is aimed at students working at Grades 6 - 9. I printed onto two sheets of A3 (stapled) but they would work on A4 too. Answers are provided. Editable versions are provided in case you want to change some questions to suit the level of your students. Some of the images are lifted from Google images. I have a similar set of non-calculator resources here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-revision-mats-higher-and-foundation-12113840 I have a second set of calculator resources here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-calculator-revision-mats-set-2-higher-and-foundation-12128297 And a third set here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/gcse-calculator-revision-mats-set-3-higher-and-foundation-12134794. Hope these are helpful. If you spot an error please let me know (@mathsjem).

These revision cards cover most C1 and C2 topics and can be used as an individual or class activity. Individuals can ask friends/relatives to test them using these cards. For use in class, hand out one laminated card per pupil. They circulate round the class, pairing up to ask and answer their questions, then swapping cards and pairing up with someone else. It's a nice active revision lesson. Please do let me know if I&'ve made any errors on these cards. C3, S1 and S2 cards are also available.

I was asked to create a PowerPoint to accompany this resource https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/sk18maths-revision-booklets-foundation-key-skills-11891525 by @SK18Maths. I adapted his algebra booklet slightly and created an accompanying PowerPoint that is designed to be used in form time. These form time interventions are only 20-25 minutes long so the idea is that in each form time the teacher briefly reviews a topic using the slides and then pupils complete one page in the booklet. Full instructions are in the PowerPoint. Of course this PowerPoint and booklet could easily used in longer revision sessions by covering multiple topics in one session.

This is an activity for an AS level maths revision lesson, based on the C2 Edexcel specification. Students work in pairs and race to answer 10 questions.

Based on an idea by Stuart Price (@sxpmaths), these ‘Correct Answer Only’ activities are for C1, C2, C3 and C4. They are designed for the Edexcel specification but use past OCR exam questions. Students work on their own to complete 8 questions, then submit their final answers for marking. They simply get a tick or cross for each answer and then have to re-try anything they get wrong. These typically take a good 30 - 45 minutes to complete and are cheap to print (one A4 sheet per student) so perfect for A level revision.

A simple worksheet or quiz on metric unit conversions. Useful in class at KS3 or for GCSE revision at KS4. Also included is guidance for GCSE teachers on what unit conversion students need to memorise and which ones are provided in their GCSE exams. Word versions are provided for editing if required.

I have adapted my old S1/S2 quizzes to make a quiz suitable for the new AS maths statistics content. This is useful for students to test themselves on facts and definitions at home. Pure version here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/new-as-maths-key-facts-quiz-pure-11914367

A worksheet guiding pupils through an ICT lesson (using Desmos) to investigate equations of the form y=mx+c.

This is a Pret homework for standard deviation. In Pret homeworks, pupils practise, recall, extend and think. These homeworks are typically followed in class with spelling or memory tests and discussions about research findings. For an editable version of this homework and Pret homeworks for many more topics, see http://prethomework.weebly.com/

11 questions in which students have to decide whether the distribution is Poisson or Binomial. Could be used with mini-whiteboards. The animation reveals the correct answer on each slide.

This is a Pret homework for index laws. In Pret homeworks, pupils practise, recall, extend and think. These homeworks are typically followed in class with spelling or memory tests and discussions about research findings. For an editable version of this homework and Pret homeworks for many more topics, see http://prethomework.weebly.com/.

Each student is given 12 questions (on A4) and a clock face (on A3). Students write their workings and answers in each section of the clock. Every 5 minutes or so students should be moving on to the next question/section. If all goes to plan they complete all 12 questions in a one hour lesson. When I do this lesson I set a timer to sound every five minutes - every time the buzzer sounds I write an answer on the board. This revision activity allows students to practise working under timed conditions and keeps them on task and engaged throughout the revision lesson. These questions are fairly challenging so suitable for students working at a grade A. The questions are taken from IYGB papers.

A mixed set of questions for Higher GCSE percentages practice/revision. Covers percentage change, reverse percentage problems and compound interest. Questions were drawn from a variety of sources.

In this activity, designed for the new GCSE specification, students compare simple quadratic sequences to others to work out the nth term. Answers are included.

This is a Pret homework for fractional and negative indices. In Pret homeworks, pupils practise, recall, extend and think. These homeworks are typically followed in class with spelling or memory tests and discussions about research findings. For an editable version of this homework and Pret homeworks for many more topics, see http://prethomework.weebly.com/.

These revision activities are for Higher GCSE 9 -1. Students work through the questions on the sheet to revise facts and procedures for a range of topics. There are two sheets: one non-calculator and one calculator. I designed these for pre-exam breakfast revision sessions for a group of students working at grades 6 - 8. There are four separate workouts, each should take 15 - 30 minutes. Answers are provided. If you find any errors please let me know. For a similar but longer version of this task, designed for a one hour revision lesson, visit this link: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/higher-gcse-revision-workout-calculator-11630772

I have adapted my old C1/C2 quizzes to make a quiz suitable for the new AS maths pure content. This works well as a starter activity in a revision lesson. Alternatively students can use this quiz to test themselves at home. Statistics version here: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/new-as-maths-key-facts-quiz-statistics-11917738
