Ratio change simultaneous equations

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

Quadratic sequence grids

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:...

Scaffolding simultaneous equations

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

Decide whether to add or subtract simultaneous equations

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

Substituting expressions into expression

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

Invariance of solutions when adding equations

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

Plotting coordinates

With coordinates, I believe the two most common errors are the scale of the axis and confusing the x and y coordinate. This task focuses...
