This (hopefully) does what it says on the tin: I wanted some sheets for students to construct triangles and bisectors so produced this. The constructions all fit in the boxes provided as long as you print them out on A4 paper. We start with constructing triangles, then bisectors, then a rhombus and a perpendicular line from a given point before finishing with couple of challenges (Yin-yang, incircle and circumcircle). Like I say, it is not designed to be flashy just practical.

There are eight matchings here: 4 surface area and 4 volume. They get increasingly difficult moving through cubes/cuboids to prisms to cones, cylinders, pyramids and spheres. These are designed to be used as starters or plenaries but you can use them for a lesson main activity, totally up to you.

This takes students from fairly straightforward area and perimeter questions (trapeziums, circles etc) through compound shapes and on to cones, frustums and hemispheres including finding the height in terms of the radius for a cone. I have tried to cover all bases with it including density and capacity problems.

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.

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!).

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

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.

Working its way up from symmetry to negative and fractional scale factor enlargements; the diagrams are as big as I can make them in the format so sorry if they are a bit small.

This takes students through all the skills required to solve simultaneous equations graphically (only linear graphs), by elimination and by substitution including one linear and one non-linear up to GCSE level. Work from the bottom building the skills up to the most complex style of question.

This contains 4 solving equations activities of increasing difficulty. This encourages discussion and insists upon students showing their working.

Working up from simple fraction of a number to adding/subtracting/multiplying/dividing mixed numbers with everything in between, including a “Show that” question which always seems to confuse some.

This takes students from simplifying expression, through factorising and up to algebraic fractions.

Work your way up to 3D Pythagoras and trigonometry…

Taking students all the way from pictograms, through bar charts, pie charts, stem-and-leaf, scatter graphs, frequency diagrams, cumulative frequency, box plots and histograms. The graphs are as large as I can make them and should be ok if copied on to A4.

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

Practice for the skills required to find a percentage of an amount; not difficult but designed for non-calculator use ultimately and checks skills such as multiplying and dividing by 100, decimals, converting between fractions, decimals and percentages before asking a few percentage of an number questions.

This is around 580 slides including notes, worked examples and questions for students to do on all topics in Edexcel’s Year 13/Book 2 including all the differentiation, integration, trigonometric identities, functions, logarithms/exponentials work as well as everything else. examples and solutions are animated so that each step can be looked at and discussed as is your and/or your students’ preference. Fully editable obviously. Now without differentiating arcsin, arccos and arctan and a rearranged series chapter.

This is a 220+ slide PowerPoint with notes, diagrams, examples and questions based around the entire Edexcel A Level Applied course. It is obviously fully editable.

This is a powerpoint covering shapes and their properties, angles facts including circle theorems and bearings. It contains brief notes by way of an explanation, model answers to questions and a question or two for the students to do; all of the questions come with answers that you can display when ready. The slide show comes with a progress grid (regularly referred to in the presentation) so that students can mark their progress from start to finish and pinpoint any areas that may need extra work with a “red/amber/green” system that they fill in; each one is given an approximate grade in both new (2017 onwards) and old system in England. It’s what I use in my lessons before setting tasks from worksheets or text books to practise.

These are all available for free individually but if you want them without searching then this is for you. The activities are designed to create discussion in class and make the students think. Each file has a minimum of 4 spiders to complete.
