GCSE Linear Starters 1-20 (Higher)

(54)
A PowerPoint I have created and used over the last half term. A starter a day for my Y11 class. The topics I focused on are their misconceptions. **Solutions included**. Next half term, I will be giving them 21-40 problems, so check back for the upload. Display on the board, or print out the slide. Pupils quickly see them as a force of habit. Feedback welcome. Any mistakes - please send me a message and I will alter. Thank you

Trigonometry and Pythagoras POST IT challenge.

(16)
Used as a revision relay/post it challenge. Print out the slides and cut out the individual questions. Use blu-tac to stick these to a wall, pupils then come out, take a question, work through the answer in their book - they then give their final answer on the back of the sheet with their name. Replace the question and do it again. If a pupil answers a question another pupil has already done and gets a different answer, then that pupil must find the other pupil and they must work through it together to come to one solution. Feedback appreciated

Ordering Fractions

(8)
A very simple but effective resource I have found. Print the pages out, I use different coloured paper for each sheet. Pupils must then cut out the fractions and place them in size order. Sheets become progressively more difficult - I have given pupils string before and they have to thread the sheets on in order - or given blu tac and stuck to the board. Feedback as always, appreciated.
