-- SUMMER 2017 QUIZ COMING SOON!! --
A fantastic end of year quiz. Rounds include Geography, Current Events (current to last year, sorry!), Arts & Literature, Famous Quotes, History and Sport.
5 Music rounds sorted by decades - identify the song and artist from the clip. Be warned - They're very hard!
Picture rounds and normal questions - all answers included.
Also included are some answer sheet templates for students to write on.
A fantastic general knowledge quiz with 5 question rounds and 4 music rounds. The subjects cover geography (anagrams of European capital cities and other assorted geography questions), Sport, News, History and Science & Nature. There are picture rounds and normal questions to be asked. The questions needed are provided on a separate Word document along with all the answers.
In between each round is a music round playing a clip from 5 number one songs from each decade 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s. I've previously done it where students can get a point for the song and a point for the artist but it can be used in any way you want.
Also included are the answer sheets where students can write their answers for the normal rounds and a separate one for the music rounds.
Works best with older students (Y11/Post 16) as some questions get a bit tricky!
Feel free to chop and change the order or miss bits out if necessary! Enjoy!

An unusual and eye-catching maths display based on Taxi Cab Geometry.
A great way to engage students and introduce them to different types of geometry. Also good intro to distance between two points using Pythagoras, loci and perpendicular bisectors.
Full resources that I have created myself.
Title letters
Descriptions
Distance between two points diagrams and descriptions
Circle/Ellipse/Parabola/Hyperbola diagrams and descriptions
(the files 'e' and 't' denote the loci in Euclidean and taxi cab geometries)
Perpendicular bisectors with diagrams and descriptions
Not included due to copyright are the two pictures I haven't created myself - the taxi and the grey square - both easily available online,
A set of cards/posters that I was asked to create that were printed out for each classroom. They are used around school to allow all subject teachers to easily show students when they are using numeracy skills across the curriculum.
Eye-catching and student-friendly design to help engage students.
Ideal for quickly showing the links between subjects and all the cross-curricular elements of numeracy.

A great activity to engage students and build both their mathematical ability and confidence, based on Kagan cooperative learning.
Students have a card each and move around the room asking the question on their card to other students. The answer is also printed on their card so they can see if their partner has the right answer. If needed, they can use their understanding to coach their partner towards the right answer. Once both students have asked their question they trade cards and move on so each student has a variety of questions that they are asking to others.
This activity involves finding factors that forms the basis of factorising a quadratic expression. Or just for general factorising practice.
Useful 2-page end of topic summary test + answers. Complete with marking grid (duplicated for A5 printing) to give students easy to read feedback, tips for improvement and extension work.
Great for showing comprehension, then progress if students are given time to make correction or attempt the extension based on teacher feedback.

Full resources for an eye-catching and informative maths display based on MEAN MEDIAN MODE & RANGE.
I've used the Beatles to get the info across (for no other reason apart from I like the Beatles!) but the resources can be easily amended so any characters could easily be used. I haven't included the pictures shown the photo for copyright purposes (I wasn't sure where the cartoon images came from) but they can be easily printed from google images.
Large letters for the title
Title of each section
Large simple descriptors
detailed speech bubbles describing the method
A fantastic 'Logic Puzzle Trail' display that looks good and can be used in corridors or classrooms for group activities or competitions. The activity features a maths superhero of my own creation, CAPTAIN PI! (Yes I know I'm a geek!), His trusty sidekick Theta the Dog and their nemesis, Dr Surd!
Loads of logic puzzles of varying degrees of difficulty (complete with solutions!) and pictures to go with each one to make the display more eye catching. You could add different pictures if you have some better ones.
Title letters that can printed out on coloured paper if desired.
I have also included character symbols so students can distinguish between the difficulty of each puzzle and a sheet of smaller identical symbols to go with each puzzle (the small circle next to each puzzle in the picture.
Easy - Level 1 - Theta the Dog
Medium - Level 2 - Captain Pi
Hard - Level 3 - Dr Surd
Also included are a sheet of Captain Pi's space boot footprints to lead students around the trail and add an extra eye-catching element to the display!
This display is in the corridor and I have used it previously as a competition for students to come up with solutions and submit to me for a prize draw. It could also be used in classrooms as a more scaled down version to start tasks and discussions. Fun and challenging!
