A PowerPoint with three graphs drawn on each of 8 slides of increasing challenge, moving from linear through to quadratics, cubics, reciprocals and exponential graphs. On each slide there are equations to match to each graph plus extra equations so that it adds more challenge; there is a blank grid so that the equations that don’t match can be sketched.

Notes, examples and questions to do on simple powers, simplifying indices, surds, rationalising the denominators and mutliplying out two brackets.

This takes you from the most basic simplifying up through substitution and proof of formulae.

This deals with plotting co-ordinates up through gradients and equations of lines, to plotting different types of graph and finally transforming functions.

A set of notes, examples and questions taking students through mental and written methods of these calculations.

Three "spiders" containing increasingly difficult questions moving from just reading the graph through calculating distance travelled to calculating acceleration.

Four spiders, two with curve and two involving trigonometric functions. These are designed to be used as starters or plenaries but they also work as consolidation activities.

I've recently discovered this in my folders on my computer. It is a 10 question non-calculator quiz using real situations.

Three "spiders" involving three different distance-time graphs and questions involving read them and speed. Hopefully this has covered most, if not all possible questions from a distance-time graph.

I needed something for my top set Year 8 to get their teeth into regarding "order of operations" and since I'm clearly into spiders at the moment this was born. It asks student to place operations and brackets into calculations to make them equal a certain total. There are 4 that get increasingly difficult (no indices involved) and then a challenge (with indices involved). There will also be more than one way to answer some, but I have provided an answer for each.

Geometry worksheet activity: Cut out the facts on triangles and quadrilaterals and put them in to groups: Always True; Sometimes True; Never True.

This leads students through graphing trigonometric functions, transforming f(x) and transforming a trigonometric function. The graphs are as big as I can make them in the format given so sorry if they are a bit small. I used Desmos for the graphs if you are interested (it’s brilliant!).

This can be used either as a numeracy resource in registration or in maths classes. It's various maths questions linked to a number wall (it's an advent calendar for crying out loud!). It covers lots of different topics in number, algebra, shape & space and data and gets progressively more difficult as you go on. The date should now update automatically! Typos corrected too.

Dealing with inequalities from representing on a number line to solving to shading regions.

A comment from my trainee teacher made me think that rounding to decimal places and significant figures needed an activity, so I came up with this. It should get students thinking and should open up discussion on rounding, which can be a little "dry" but essential to get to grips with. Typo corrected!

Find the appropriate equivalent fraction and find the punchline to Tim Vine’s joke; designed as a bit more practice for some of my Year 7 and 8 classes, but could be useful for others. I have uploaded PDF versions so those who don’t have Equation Editor can see them; no need to thank me…

Six spiders on surface area and volume (3 of each) and a final "problems" spider. They are of increasing difficulty, moving from cubes and cuboids to prisms to cones, spheres and pyramids. These are designed to avoid students getting into a rut of performing a mathematical recipe by asking a mixture of finding surface area/volume to working backwards. These usually encourage discussion in class.

Around 25 codebreakers (answer the questions, reveal the punchline to a joke) in this bundle. There are a number aimed at covering parts of the AQA Further Maths Level 2 Certificate but also ones covering topics on the GCSE curriculum too. Each of these is individually available for free but if you want all of them they are available here.

These spiders (there are seven of them in total) take you through simplifying, calculating, rationalising denominators, expanding brackets and rationalising "tough" surds.

This presentation just takes you through definite integrals and uses questions from Edexcel; please don't expect anything flashy. If the animations get mixed up I apologise but for some reason Equation Editor doesn't have square brackets onto which one can put limits! Annoying.
