Here’s a maths-themed Christmas quiz for you to use with your classes. Should take one hour.

Covers simple interest, compound interest, appreciation and depreciation. 3 exercises and a few big questions. Example problem pairs for everything.

Full lesson on equations of parallel lines. Exercises with answers included.

Massive resource. 3/4 lessons. Covers 1-step, 2-step, factorising, multiplying then factorising. All with learning checks and activities. 37 slides. NOTE : I update my slides a lot, but don’t always update them on TES. You can always find the latest version of this PowerPoint here.

Lots of practice. A problem solving task that’s worth printing off and spending a good while on. A nice (if I do say so myself) activity on identifying which angles in an isosceles triangle are equal. Could do with a little algebra task to extend this. NOTE : I update my PowerPoints all the time, but don’t always get around to reuploading them. The latest version of this PowerPoint can always be found at this link.

A resource that took me 5 lessons to go through. So there’s a unit here. (Adding in a few little worksheets I found online for some extra questions) Introduces sin and cos separately, using similar triangles. Then moves onto trig tables, so students aren’t just pressing a ‘magic’ button on their calculator. Then a little exercise choosing between them. Then tan. Then choosing sin/cos/tan. Then angles. Lots here. Lots of questions, lots of examples. No challenging or problem solving questions. This was meant as an introduction.

Very much a zoom in on one particular skill. Multiplying up or down recipes. Some whiteboard work and some questions along with an example problem pair.

Covers simple solving, negatives and solving with unknowns on both sides. Lots of whiteboard work.

Full lessons. Covers a few discussion points, and goes through how to find experimental probabilities from tables. You should probably print off the questions as they go over two pages.

I’ve kept this as a separate lesson from dividing. I think it’s worth taking the time. Prior knowledge check Example problem pairs Learning check When I come to update this, I will add a section on multiplying then factorising. It wasn’t quite appropriate for the class I designed this lesson for. NOTE : I update my lessons a lot. To correct errors or make them better. I don’t always reupload them here. You can find the latest version of my PowerPoint here.

PowerPoint using the White Rose place value grids writing place values from both grids and identifying place value in the number. Includes an exercise, some whiteboard work a starter and a plenary.

Quadrilaterals/kites/exterior angles. Need to add something on algebra when I come to update. NOTE: Everything is a work in progress. The latest version of this file can always be found at this link.

As always I often update my slides, but don’t always have the time to update TES. The latest version of this lesson can always be found at this link.

Needs a lot of printing (due to the nature of the topic) NOTE : I update stuff often, chopping and changing or correcting errors or general improvements. The latest version of this PowerPoint can always be found here.

A lesson (or six) on adding and subtracting fractions. A shed load of stuff here. Example problem pairs. Tons of practice and puzzles and problem solving exercises. Pick what you want to show and go.

No union or intersection. Just the language of using ‘subset’ and ‘is an elelment of’ and the signs.

Both using vectors drawn on a grid, and finding the magnitude from a column vector.

Big focus on correct language, including a little task that asks students to say if something is an expression, a formula, an equation or an identity. Lots of practice, worded questions etc. Recommend mini-whiteboards for this (and all) lessons. NOTE: I change my PowerPoints often, but don’t always get around to uploading the latest version here. The latest version of this file can always be found at this link.

Changelog: 2 new sections. Changed some answers to address more misconceptions. Completely redone version of maths pointless. The countdown is now much, much quicker (as requested). New questions will also be coming in an update over the following weeks. Play over numerous rounds and keep score on the board. All credit to Paul Collins.

Colour in the boxes to make a little picture. Includes lots of misconceptions, lots of negatives and some fractional practice.
