This logic puzzle involved reading coordinated in one quadrant and being able to name very simple straight line graphs e.g. x=2 y=1.
Possible extensions could include, what’s the fewest number of fences you could do it in. House g wants a bigger plot etc.
I used this with my bottom set year 10 though is suitable for a variety of ages.

If you haven’t heard your students talking about Among Us then where have you been?
100 million people play the social deduction game Among Us and the kids love talking about it. This activity involves using scales and bearings.
If you print at 100% the scale will be 1cm to 2m, otherwise, you might have to give it a measure if you print to fit. The worksheet comes in both colour and black and white with answers provided.

A set of printable cards to complete a family of four (fact family) upon.
Print these off cut them out and hand out for students to stick in their book. By using the same template each time the students will know exactly what needs to be done and get started quicker.
Write the 3 numbers of the fact family (one in each corner) and the students fill in the blanks to create the four facts.
A fact family is a group of math facts using the same numbers. In the case of addition/subtraction, you use three numbers and get four facts. For example, you can form a fact family using the three numbers 3, 4 and 7. 3+4=7, 4+3=7, 7-4=3, 7-3=4.

Practice collecting like terms using these fun bonfire night/4th of July themed colouring sheets. This pack contains three different worksheets of different levels.
Toffee Apple - Different variables with a power (exponent) of one
Rocket/Firework - Different variables with constants and variables multiplied together e.g. 3xy and 2yx = 5xy
Campfire - Different variables of different powers (exponents)
So the idea behind this activity is that there’s very little difference between each different worksheet but a large difference between polar opposites. Pupils answer the first 5 questions. If they get them all correct first time they move up a step, otherwise they answer the rest of the questions on that level.
The levels are:
Red - Solving one-step using balances and bar models
Orange - Solving one-step represented algebraically (positive and negative integers)
Yellow - Solving one-step represented algebraically including fractions, decimals and worded questions
Green - Solving two-step using balances and bar models with a few represented algebraically
Blue - Solving two-step represented algebraically (positive and negative integers)
Purple - Solving two-step represented algebraically including fractions and decimals
White - Solving two-step worded questions
