This worksheet is designed for KS3 and KS4 to understand length scale factor problems, which typically involve using a calculator. The worksheet is suitable for most types of children, but is targetted for the more able learner. Children need to use the numbers already provided for the dimensions of the photographs to work out the scale facctor of enlargement. To make this worksheet more challenge written dimensions can be removed, and children can measure the pictures themselves. Workhseet contains 6 problems, multiple extension questions, and links to real life such as Instagram. In addition to this the worksheet has an example on how to complete the questions. I often find teaching the topic of scale factor quite dull. As a result I have tried to make it more exciting by using images I have taken from various trips to different countries, and relating the worksheet to real life experiences of the students. Comes with DETAILED solutions. Length scale factor requires you to work out what is the multiplicative factor you need in order to get from one length to another.

A 144 Powerpoint presentation which I have made to include all teh times tables 1-12. You can choose specific times tables, such as the ‘7 times table’ OR you can test on all the times tables in a random order. Great for using as a whole class activity or for individual use as a homework activity. Every slide includes an answer.

Ideal starter for KS3, although could be used for younger or older as differentiation available. The general concept has been derived from a function machine. You start with 9 input numbers which need to go through two operations, subsequently creating an output. The operation for this specific function machine involves four operations, and negative numbers. So you start with 6 and then ‘x6 +2’. There are a total of four operation pairs, so there up to 36 answers students need to find. Working alongside this is a more challenging sheet, which involves the students using the ‘output’ numbers first to work out the ‘input’ numbers, and hence understanding the importance of working backwards through the operations. Most importantly, both the basic style worksheet and the challenging worksheet work in conjunction with each other, such that they both link to the same solutions, which are provided. The picture provided demonstrates the answers to one of the potential worksheets. You click on the arrow tab for a new worksheet OR alternatively the ‘delete’ button. Has been used many times successfully within classrooms for year 7s, 8s, and year 9s. Please leave reviews if you found this resource helpful!

Ideal starter for KS3, although could be used for younger or older as differentiation available. The general concept has been derived from a function machine. You start with 9 input numbers, which needs to go through an operation. The operation for this specific function machine is to find fractions of amounts. So you need to find five sixths of 30 for example. There are a total of four operations so there up to 36 answers students need to find. Working alongside this is a more challenging sheet, which involves the students using the ‘output’ numbers first to work out the ‘input’ numbers, and hence understanding the importance of working backwards through the operations.

14 slide powerpoint presentation, in which every other slide includes a video. Every other slide is a video of a venn diagram being shaded in, and the remaining slides are videos of the notational answers. You could use this resource in several ways. Firstly you could use the turquoise colour slides to give a Venn diagram notation, such as P(AnB’) and then you could get students to demonstrate their answers in their book. Alternatively you could use the pictoral videos, and ask the students what you think the equivalent notation is.
