I'm a secondary school maths teacher with a passion for creating high quality resources. All of my complete lesson resources come as single powerpoint files, so everything you need is in one place. Slides have a clean, unfussy layout and I'm not big on plastering learning objectives or acronyms everywhere. My aim is to incorporate interesting, purposeful activities that really make pupils think. I have a website coming soon!

Cookie Monster

Cookie Monster

(5)
My take on Daniel Burke's excellent idea of odd-one-out set to a song featuring Cookie Monster. The box at the bottom of the puzzles should show the video but Powerpoint and the TES website don't like this link, so I&'ve given the website address to download the video, which you can then insert into the powerpoint. Menus are clickable (clicking on the top heading will take you back to the previous menu). Correct answer flashes after 50 seconds (this coincides with the video)

San Gaku, also known as Japanese Temple Problems, are challenging geometric puzzles requiring anything from Pythagoras' theorem (as in the questions chosen here) to much more complex maths to solve. The activity aims to introduce the style of problem through a few select questions, each with a numerical as well as an algebraic part. Answers, printable worksheets and interactive GSP also included.

Standard form collect a joke

(27)
Non-calculator sums with standard form is a boring topic, so what better than a rubbish joke to go with it? Pupils answer questions and use the code to reveal a feeble gag.

Based on an Nrich activity, pupils investigate how many different triangles can be drawn (with some restrictions). Leads to a very nice visual result and discussions about how pupils know they have found all possible answers.
