This page is simply a collection of some resources that I have made to use in mathematics lessons.

Equation Cards.xls These are double sided cards that have an equation on one side and numbers on the back. They work in a 'follow me' style. There is also an advanced version with harder equations.
Algebra Loop Cards.xls These are a classic version of the follow-me style game. Used for consolidation of algebra and expressions.
Sequence Cards.xls Print these double sided so that on one side is a long list of numbers and a two-digit number on the other. Ask the class to give you a two-digit number and then tell then the long number on the back from memory. See if they can work out how you do it.
Circle Starter.ppt A quick starter to test if the class know the names for each part of a circle.
Pythagoras.ppt An introductions to Pythagoras Theorem.
Ratio Starter.ppt A starter to test the understanding of the class on the ideas of ratio. Use with mini whiteboards.
Card Exercise.ppt Break up the lesson with a bit of fun and exercise. For younger classes remove some of the rules.
Decimal Calculations.ppt A plenary to test if students can perform decimal calculations. Use with the small whiteboards.
World Issues.zip Images that tackle world issues. I have used this a few times and always had a very positive reaction. The music goes well with the pictures and creates a good discussion. This zip file may take a few minutes to download and will need to be extracted to play the music properly.
Horse Racing.xls Excel file that uses macros to simulate horse racing. The instructions on how to use this file are on the first spreadsheet.
Timer.zip Mission Impossible Timer. 60 second countdown, especially good for packing away in a hurry. This zip file may take a few minutes to download and will need to be extracted to play the music properly.
Tintin Interior Angles.ppt A cartoon that explains the ideas of interior angles. The students love to be the characters.
Magic Square.xls Create a magic square from algebra.

I would be grateful if any mistakes or typos could be brought to my attention.
