The resources are still very useful for students in KS3-KS4 . KS3-4 Bridging the gap.  \nKey stage 3 tests  \nThis series of termly tests covers Years 7, 8 and 9 and can be used to check understanding as well as showing younger students what GCSE papers look and feel like. Extension tests are included and analysers are available for all tests.  \nAQA Key Stage 3 tests for Years 7, 8 and 9.  \n90 maths problem solving questions  \nThis supports the problem solving requirement (AO3) of GCSE Mathematics. Very useful summary lists link questions to process skills and to content areas. Full commentaries are given on 30 of the problems.  \nGCSE Mathematics: 90 maths problem solving questions.  \nGCSE examination questions  \nAQA GCSE Assessment Resources AQA legacy GCSE question papers  \nPhET interactive simulations  \nPhET Interactive Simulations, University of Colorado, Boulder is a collection of interactive, research-based science and mathematics simulations.  \nAll simulations available at [https://phet.colorado.edu](https://phet.colorado.edu) are open educational resources available under the Creative Commons Attribution license (CC-BY) .  \nTransum mathematics  \nFrom John Tranter, Transum Mathematics is an extensive collection of excellent resources, including many which are useful for student self-study as answers can be checked.  \nTransum Mathematics. See the Mathematics Curriculum section for suggested resources for Key Stage 4. Learners can use the Maths Map to help find topics.  \n[www.transum.org](www.transum.org)  \nBuilding blocks resources  \nThese resources start with basic questions and progress to more challenging GCSE type questions. This example on functions goes from simple function machines through to composite functions. A resource like this helps teachers consider the small steps for a topic.  \nFrom Andy Lutwyche on TES , Building Blocks resources  \nAlso from Andy Lutwyche, see his Clumsy Clive resources where students must identify and correct the errors Clive has made in his homework and his What was the question? series which provide sets of four questions that have the same answer; students must provide the missing information in the questions.  \nAndy Lutwych/TES CC-BY-SA [https://creativecommons.org/l](https://creativecommons.org/l)icenses/by-sa/4 .0/","cbCaiakesAp7qVBx","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiakesAp7qVBx","pdf",1052208,11,"English","# Contents\n## Bridging the gap\n## AQA Key stage 3 tests for years 7, 8 and 9\n## 90 maths problem solving questions\n## GCSE examination questions\n## PhET interactive simulations\n## Transum mathematics\n## Building blocks resources","[{\"question\":\"What does the “Bridging the gap” resource set focus on?\",\"answer\":\"It supports teaching and learning as students move from KS3 (2007 programme of study) toward the Mathematics GCSE, and remains useful for KS3–KS4.\"},{\"question\":\"How are the Key stage 3 tests structured and how can they be used?\",\"answer\":\"The termly tests cover Years 7, 8 and 9, can be used to check understanding, and familiarise students with what GCSE papers look and feel like.
