A recent tweet from Tom Riley (@riley_ed) reminded me that I’ve been meaning to blog (I’ve been all over the place for the last couple of weeks!!) about the worked solutions we’ll be doing for any future resources I put on the website. I know as a teacher when you have a great resource, sometimes … Read more
I’m planning on doing some basic numeracy skills with my year 9’s over the next few weeks and working with negatives is one thing that I know needs constantly refreshing, so I’ve put together the attached “followme” style worksheet and solution. It is self checking and they should end up with the phrase “Subtracting a negative is … Read more
Here’s a whodunnit style worksheet that I’ve done for multiplying and dividing decimals along with the solution … keeping busy!! Personal update (stop this madness!) which you can either read or choose to ignore, as I don’t usually blog personal thoughts!
I was reminded today about the “whodunit” style worksheets by one of my students, and so we’ll be doing the Bidmas – Whodunnit (2) as a starter tomorrow … I’ve also done the Bidmas – Whodunnit – Solution (2) (which I hope is right!! as its been a bit mad whilst I’ve checked it … final whistle … Read more
I‘ve noticed that my most recent blog posts have been (a) about resources and (b) bullet points.

oh wow! what a busy day … but look what I’ve made … 1. Two connect 4 style worksheets (Revision 1 – Connect 4 and Revision 2 – Connect 4) for revision that can either be used by individual students or as a whole class activity on the board at the start of a lesson. … Read more
I am loving the idea of these connect 4 worksheets … and the fact that they are self-checking too is fab!!. I’ve put the attached (BIDMAS – Connect 4 – Wsheet) together for my year 9 sets next week as a refresher activity and to get them thinking about maths after their break too. Its … Read more
I’ve been busy planning some lessons this morning while I’m waiting for it to warm up a bit before an afternoon of digging on my allotment (Yes! I have an allotment, get over it!!) and I’m exploring how to make boring old worksheets a bit more exciting, that also incorporates some higher order thinking and … 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
