This matching pairs game is a great way for students to memorise angle rules. They can play against each other or by themselves against the clock. There are 16 pairs of cards. Each pair, a phrase card and a picture card, describes a different angle rule. Rules include angle types and angle properties of parallel lines, triangles and quadrilaterals. Easy to set up. The cards are made by printing double sided onto paper or card and then cutting around the borders.

Could you return the serve of a professional tennis player? Students investigate this question in a maths practical activity. Students use Pythagoras' theorem and speed, distance, time conversions to estimate the time it takes for a ball to travel across court. They then estimate their own reaction times using an online test.

This is a student workbook that can supplement lessons on hypothesis tests for a population mean. I teach the stages of hypothesis testing using analogies to a criminal trial. My students like this comparison; they are more engaged and it helps them to see the relevance of the different stages. Once students are confident with the terminology, we create our own courtroom in the classroom and role-play the stages of hypothesis testing with students acting as the jury, prosecution, judge and defence. Contents of the workbook 1. A summary of the 5 stages of hypothesis testing 2. A detailed analogy to a criminal trial 3. One worked example 4. Space for students to complete their own examples. 5. Worksheets on: a. the null and alternative hypothesis b. type I and type II errors c. checking assumptions d. sampling distributions e. the normal distribution f. the t-distribution g. interpreting p-values Answers for worksheets provided in separate document. The preview file shows a selection of pages from the workbook.

Students will love this Pick, Flip & Check activity. Kids use a paper clip or clothes peg to clip the fraction of amounts that are equal to the number on the card. Then they flip the card over to check their answers! A fun way for kids to practice finding a fraction of an amount. Plus no marking for you! How to assemble: - print on card* - cut around the edge - fold in half and glue the two halves together. *or paper and then laminate once folded. Looking for similar activities?

Here's a real life CSI application of algebra for your students.... There has been a suspicious death. Using their knowledge of formulae and quadratic equations, students have to gather evidence from the crime scene and mortuary to determine (1) who was with the victim moments before death and (2) whether the death was a tragic accident or cold-blooded murder. At the Crime Scene - The victim died after falling from a balcony. Students have to collect information on the distance of the body from the building to determine whether it was an accidental fall or murder. At the Mortuary - Students must match a bite mark left on the body with teeth impressions taken from three suspects to find out who was with the victim when he fell. Answers included.

The Aramazu method of learning to tell the time on an analogue clock was originally developed for primary school children. This collection of resources adapts the Aramazu approach to appeal to secondary school students. I have used this approach successfully to teach 16-18 year old students with dyslexia and dyscalculia how to tell the time. The resources included in this package are: A Student Progress Tracker I glue this in my student’s books. The tracker shows 8 levels that the students have to move up in order to reach the target. Students start at the bottom (level 1) and once each level is completed, we highlight it. The goal is to reach level 8.  The progress path is shown both in words and pictures so all my students can access the information. An Illustrated Set of Notes These can be used as a interactive teaching resource or as handouts for students. Flash Cards / Match Pairs Cards The Aramazu clocks can be used as flash cards or together with the word cards as a matching activity. A Giant Aramazu Wall Clock Perfect for kinaesthetic and visual learners, a printable giant Aramazu wall clock for students to practise showing the time on. I’ve also included a few worksheets and posters to support learning. The end goal is for students to be able to tell the time to 5 minute intervals on an Aramazu clock. Once students have mastered this, you can then use the ‘Goodbye Aramazu’ resource to support students with the transition to reading a ‘typical’ analogue clock: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/learn-to-tell-the-time-goodbye-aramazu-12084255

Here’s a real life CSI application of algebra for your students… Students have to solve a murder investigation using formulae (writing and substituting). They have to gather evidence at three locations: the crime scene, mortuary and forensic laboratory. Once they have collected their evidence, they examine a suspect list to identify the murderer. Crime scene – The suspect has left muddy boot prints at the crime scene. Students have to measure the boot print and step length to determine the suspect’s height. Mortuary – Students have to determine the time of death using body temperature. Forensic Laboratory – The victim died from chronic arsenic poisoning. Students have to determine for how long the victim was poisoned for. Answers included.

This resource is designed for students who can read time on an Aramazu clock and must now apply their knowledge to read a typical analogue clock. The transition is carefully scaffolded and involves students progressing through 4 stages. At each stage, a visual feature of the Aramazu clock is removed until the clock looks like a typical analogue clock. I have used this approach successfully on my students - 16 year olds with dyslexia and dyscalculia. Included in this package are: Worksheets One for each stage. Activity cards These can be used as flash cards or with the word cards in a matching activity. There is a set for each stage. A Student Progress Tracker This can be glued in student books. Students can highlight each stage as they progress. For more Aramazu resources, go to: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/learn-to-tell-the-time-dyslexia-dyscalculia-friendly-12083209
