I have seen a few different methods for ratio change problems. Some people use scaling (not pictured), I have often in the past preferred...

If you are looking at introducing the three common types of sharing in a ratio problem at the same time then this activity might help to...

When introducing negative numbers I like the task 'make three', then make it in a different way (by using zero pairs). I wanted to extend...

A little task to get students thinking about the converse of Pythagoras's theorem. I would not state the converse but instead, look at...

Here is a possible task to introduce sine and cosine to students using the unit circle. When introducing trigonometry in right-angled...

Struggling to find something converting fractions to decimals without using division so made this. This is following students converting...

I like to look at sequences additively, for example, the sequence 3n+2 is the sequence 3n; 3, 6, 9, 12... plus the constant sequence 2:...

This idea was stolen from @LearningMaths who shared three great tasks using this structure: linear sequences, ordering fractions, and...

A fraction of amount task in which students must work forward and backwards, represent the problem with a bar model, and represent their...

This task is to help students make sense of the distributive law and how addition works; the collection of like objects. This is...

Here is a small subset, not all, of the examples I recently used for simultaneous equations. My other examples relied heavily on bar...

This task is designed to get pupils thinking and understanding the associativity of subtraction. It is modeled both with number lines and...

Once students are able to solve simultaneous equations using both addition and subtraction, this task could be used to isolate the skill...

Consider the following set of three questions. How would your pupils cope with this idea in this context? What if it was in the context...

This grid offers a way for students to deepen their understanding of substitution, by going beyond numerical substitution and allowing...

This task split the class. Pupils were fine converting from base 10 when the number was less than the base squared, but then when it...

This task is designed to get students converting into base 10. It has A LOT of practice, some may so too much, but this is new for pupils...

I showed one of these types of problems to my class. They struggled and weren't sure how to proceed with the problem. I highlighted how...

When teaching pupils how to solve simultaneous equations by elimination pupils have to add, or subtract equations. This could be...
