Mel Muldowney I’ve had a raggedy old set of match cards that I drew by hand a couple of years ago, and they are one of my favourite “go – to” resources, but looking very shoddy … so I’ve given them a facelift. One of my classes is going to start next term with transformations and my new shiny … Read more
Two things have come together this week that have sort of morphed into a nice little revision activity. I’ve been working on exam questions by topics and this developed into producing them with written answers on too … the ones for two way tables are here (Exam Qs and with solutions) . I’ve quite enjoyed putting these solutions … Read more
I have had a couple of requests today (how weird is that? 2 in the same day) from visitors to some intervention training we did at school, asking me about the posters I have up in my room … specifically a display of posters I was raving about on the day from @El_Timbre on Twitter. These are … Read more
I thought I’d mix it up a bit this week, and instead of a midweek “bullet point blog” I’m going to be a bit rash and do a weekend “bullet-point” blog, I know! that’s just how I roll! … Living life on the edge, pushing the envelope … blah, blah, blah … Actually its just that there is … Read more
Found this today and it made me chuckle … corny joke alert …. its one of our “follow me” worksheets and it will ultimately read “Why are powers like fish?” … and you will need the punchline … wait for it … because they are both “in de seas” (get it?) UPDATED TO CORRECT A MISSING … Read more
Usual “bullet point” blog : – Love, love, love teaching vectors!!! – Using the attached (here) “superheroes and villains” themed snakes and ladders game this week. Have put heroes that move you up the board and villains on that move you down the board in the usual place that a snake or a ladder would … Read more
I’m hoping that Seager (my HOD) doesn’t read this as I’ve had some new posters done for my classroom (Seager – its not loads!! I promise!!) for an idea that has been developing for a while where I have an area of the room which provides a focus for the students to feedback to me about what … Read more
This is my superhero introduction to simultaneous equations … I don’t mean that I think the resource is heroic, just that its “superhero” themed. This week I’m going to do simultaneous equations and the attached is a nice introduction using picture of superheroes instead of “x’s” and “y’s”. I’ve made it into a Powerpoint (instead of the original notebook that … Read more
I put together a quiz every term broadly (very broadly) maths based – the attached (give it a minute to download) is my Easter offering. 5 rounds of 10 questions, but does include some cross curricular elements in terms of anagrams and general knowledge. Get the students into teams and swap answers to mark them between … Read more
If you are teaching probability tree diagrams the attached is a nice little “mission impossible” themed worksheet which is ideal as a mini plenary mid lesson or even as your final plenary. I’m actually going to use it as an “exit card” with one of my groups, which is why there are two sheets (so I can … Read more
