Who Wants to be a [Subject]

(3)
Who Wants to be a: Mathematician, Biologist, Physicist, Chemist, Musician, Computer Genius etc. A template which is fully animated with authentic images and designs. Editable logos. A “homemade” logo, option shapes, money ladder, etc. This presentation also includes the theme song for thirty second on the title page and the “correct answer” noise with the authentic green flash for a correct answer. Animations are triggered by selecting the options. Simply insert the questions and answer (being careful to ensure the “correct” option goes into the correct place). The order of correct places is: A, C, D, C, D, A, B, B, A, D, B, C, D, A, C. This is a great tool for assess children’s understanding and can be used alongside diagnostic questions. It is also great as an end-of-term activity or as part of a fun quiz. Further instructions are in the notes of Slide 1. A reminder of which places is the “correct” one is on each of the slides. Please leave reviews on how I can improve this resource. Also, feel free to take a look at the other resources I have uploaded.
Colouring Bars for Equivalent Fractions

Colouring Bars for Equivalent Fractions

(3)
A nice simple worksheet for students to use for shading in bars to see fractions which are equivalent. Perfect for primary and secondary mathematics lessons. This activity is especially nice for the more visual learners, and those who find it more difficult to conceptualize mathematics. This resource includes a rainbow-colored “fraction wall” for students to refer to. This wall is helpfully the same width as the bars for the examples and the questions. All parts of the resource are easily editable. It had a dyslexic-friendly font and can be printed on any color paper without loss of aesthetic. This is also a nice time to introduce to the students the idea of the “part to whole” relationship that fractions indicate. As always, if you do choose to download this resource, thank you, and please leave feedback for any improvements I could make to it.
Pirate Game, 15 Different Pages

Pirate Game, 15 Different Pages

(6)
The famous pirate game. Perfect for end-of-term activity. This slight variation uses a random name generator alongside it to choose who gets hit by the uncontrollable bomb (the students love this aspect). Instructions for play are on the notes of the first slide. This slide has the grid on which I use to cross out grid references during the game. All images and text has “no background” so the sheets can be printed on any color sheet and still look good.
Countdown Game Template

Template for Function Machines

Template for Function Machines

(3)
Here is a collection of 8 function machine templates. All machines are customizable. In particular, the input, operations, and outputs are all editable. Machines include “glass” to be able to “see into the machine”. 1st - single function, a goes in, 3 x a comes out. Good for questioning about understanding of what function machines are. 2nd - single function and its inverse. good to discuss what inverse of multiplication is etc. 3rd - Solving one-step equation. Template is for x 3 but can be anything. This slide does not include checking solution. 4th - solving one-step equation. This slide includes checking solution by putting it through the first operations. 5th - two-step function. Involving two function machines. Useful for discussing the importance of the order of operations. 6th - two-step operations with inverses. Again, useful for talking about the importance of the order of operations. This is a good visual and the term will go through the machines in the reverse order. 7th - Solving two-step equation. This slide does not include checking solution. 8th - Solving two-step equation. This slide does include checking solution.
Matchstick Puzzles

Matchstick Puzzles

(2)
These are really fun starter activities for students, especially those who find maths difficult and struggle to enjoy it. This activity is perfect for the run up to the holidays and can be used with any class, primary or secondary. Several of the puzzles also have multiple solutions, so this isn’t just a “who can finish first activity”. This presentation contains over 3 0 puzzles of varying difficulty, each one with its own animated solution. If you do download this presentation, please leave feedback on how I can improve them. Or if you would like me to increase the number of puzzles, feel free to post a link to the puzzle you’d like me to put in.

Algebra 03/31 Forming Expressions

(1)
This lesson titled ‘Forming Expressions’ is fully differentiated, and uses whiteboard questions as a scaffolding and Assessment for Learning method. These whiteboard questions are also particularly useful for reducing students’ maths anxiety by providing them with multiple answer they can choose from. All of the whiteboard questions have diagnostic-style wrong answers, obtained from common misconceptions The title of the lesson is throughout the PowerPoint. This provides consistency throughout, allows students to catch up if they missed it, and takes late-comers into consideration. The date is also throughout the PowerPoint and updates automatically. This is done so that the students know exactly where it is each lesson, and to make it easier on the class teacher. A dyslexic-friendly font (Verdana) is used throughout the PowerPoint and any worksheets. Worksheets are embedded in the PowerPoint on the slides to which they relate. Animated answers to all questions are provided where possible. The learning objectives are designed to be as short sentences as possible to allow students to read them and write them down (if necessary) as quickly as possible. They also use a mixture of simplistic and specialised words to engages students’ thinking about definitions whilst allowing them to access the meaning of the sentences. These objectives are reviewed at the end of the lesson as a self-evaluation of learning technique. Students are awarded ‘brain’ medals depending on how well they have done. These are kept as simple as possible and broken down carefully. This is to encourage students to access the material whilst giving them the confidence by achieving something in the lesson. B) Link sentences and expressions. S) Construct expressions from diagrams. G) Simplify expressions. If you like the resource, please leave a review. If you didn’t please leave one anyway with any suggestions on how I could improve it. Whilst this lesson is part of a larger bundle, and does link nicely with some of the other lessons, it can certainly be used independently as well.
