This lesson titled ‘The Order of Operations’ 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) Review BIDMAS. S) Use BIDMAS to calculate sums and products G) Correct calculations in line with BIDMAS. 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.

Here is a collection of sixty-nine words related to Co-ordinate Geometry. Each slide is accompanied with an animation of the Countdown Clock, and the tune to accompany the timer. All words are between 3 and 9 letters long. All words are in size, then alphabetical order. It includes: Symmetry, Collinear, Intercept, Parallel, and Plane. These slides are perfect to use as start activities or plenaries for key words on the topic. If you decide to download, thank you, and please leave a review along with any suggestions on how I could improve the resource. I also have a number of other collections of vocabulary for topics including Statistics and Probability, Algebra, Number, and Basic Geometry.

This is a simple variation on the classic Pirate Game (see here). This version has twelve different pages with a different pirate on each. Each pirate has a single extra item. The first pirate has an extra “steal”, the second has an extra “kill” and so on. Ideally, this game is to be played in teams. I have tried it with individual students as their own “team”, and generally it takes a very long time to get through parts of the game.

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.
