Free Maths Resources on the Internet

Creating your own exercise sheets, quizzes, and tests in math can take a lot of time.  It is really helpful to sometimes use tests created by someone else.  This both saves you time, and also is beneficial to the pupil because it helps them to solve different types of problems or recognize different approaches to similar types of problems. 

Here are two resources that I have used with Year 9 (9th grade) students and found helpful.

"Year 9 Half Yearly Exam Revision-Algebra" This site offers a practice exam focusing on 9th grade level algebra.  This is supposed to be a mid-year assesment, and is really useful for gauging a student's strengths and weaknesses as they study algebra.

"KS3 Bitesize: Maths" This site is an amazing and easy to use resource.  It reviews everything covered in Key Stage 3 Maths (grades 7-9).  There are review sections teaching/reviewing the principle, activities to practice them, and then short tests.

I found both of these sites really helpful, so I hope you will too.

Homeschool Share: A Fantastic Resource

If you are homeschooling, you know that it can be difficult to constantly come up with new ideas to make your teaching interesting.  There is a website that can help.  Homeschool Share is a great website and an invaluable resource for homeschooling parents.  Basically, it's a forum for homeschoolers.  There are a ton of free resources with different study units appropriate for different ages (particularly for preschoolers and elementary school, or infants school).  Parents can contribute high quality units that they have created, so their collection is constantly growing.  If you homeschool, I highly recommend checking this site.

Free Math Worksheets

If you teach math, you know how tedious it can be to make up your own practice problems and assignments.  Especially if you're teaching something like simultaneous linear equations, it can quickly become time-consuming.  I've looked at a lot of internet resources for teaching math, but KUTA is my fave website for free math resources.  KUTA have free worksheets (with answer keys) for a variety of topics in pre-algebra, algebra 1, algebra 2, and geometry.  This site is a great resource if your teaching about 8th grade up.
