26 different activities 41 files in total to help your learners can master what a triangle is. WhatIsATriangle2x7Label; WriteMrWrongTrianglesLabel2x7; WriteKillerQuestionLabel2x7 = Get students to write their own questions to help ID, address misconceptions and to assess their understanding WhatMakesATriangle2x7Label = Leads to discussion on the Triangle Inequality Law; WallGameCards = Snatch Match. Print, cut out and laminate. Blue tack them to your wall. Students stand a metre away in teams so that they compete against one person each. You (or a clever student or a TA) asks questions and the students compete to grab the card with the answer. UnhideTrianglesIDExercise = use the SMART Board IWB to unhide the triangle images slowly. Students tell you the triangle type asap. You challenge them on explain why. TriangleNamesPoster, TriangleNamesList, TriangleTypePropertyMatrixTable = help sheets, posters TrianglesSortingTableWS = Very challenging WS. Do as a collaborative table exercise or for individuals as homework. This is not my resource but I've adapted it and given you the answers. TrianglesSimpleFactsheet = I've adapted this from some one else to add a bit more to it. I always give it out to the students and then discuss the properties and the markings or hatch marks which can go on each type. Triangles1SenteoType ID = Five Question Senteo SMART Response Assessment Quiz TriangleNamesCardsLabel2x7 = Print on to cards and then cut out. Give every table a pack and get them to sort/classify them. Give each student a card and then play Who Am I? The numbers indicate my subjective judgement on how hard they are to classify. Use FourWhoAmIQuestions to help with this. TriangleFight = A Magenta Principles activity which is great as a lesson ender - particularly when waiting for the bell. The stickers back it up in the student exercise books. MyTriangleNotationLessonForPythagorasSenteo = Resource to help prepare for Pythagoras teaching MyDrawOnIsometricWS = This is good as a starter for recapping before starting a topic. DominoCardsHarder and 4SetsDominosCards = The original is really hard. I then split them into four card sets which makes each set much easier. Identify the triangles from their properties on the cards. 7x3LabelTriangle names = is just a set of three differentiated versions where the students identify and classify mixed triangles which you'll need to print out. Following are hopefully obvious from names: MyIdentifyTrianglePPT23Q's MyFiveTrianglesDiagramsWithMarkingsForTypeID MyFlowDiagramTask ManyTrianglesSMARTForID FiveTriangleTypes-One per Page FiveTriangleTypesOnA4 31TrianglePropertiesQuestionsCards

Fun exercise for many age ranges. Will provide a good amount of discussion and is a nice next step after calculating probabilities to then progressing on to dependent events. Originally I used this as one short activity in a "Circus" of many activities which students go around the room playing on. (More of my Circus Activities are uploaded on my resources elsewhere) Print out the resources enough for each group (I split the class into pairs) but put the Tree Diagram on A3 for tables of 4 to complete. Each group needs a picture of a bowl on A4 and a selection of fruit (I printed out 9 pieces of fruit per A4 using "Windows Photo Printing"). Ideally laminate these for durability. Try to get the fruit on equal size cards so that they can be turned face down and chosen at random. First give them all the task sheet - you could always laminate these so that they use dry wipe markers so that they could play it twice. The task is pick a piece of fruit at random and then record it in the table and then calculate the probability of getting what's left. This is usually enough of an activity to do in a "Circus" however its a good intro for tree diagrams hence the work on tree diagrams as well. Note that the SMART Notebook has the fruit images already added in the attachments as a gallery file. The SMART Notebook file has a variety of different size tree diagrams - you could choose which students to give the smaller (easier to complete) to. I've included a few tree diagram templates for your use.

Use this together with “Payslips and Overtime” PowerPoint from TES Contributor Sme1968 Includes my introductory comprehensive notes on Wages, Pay and Salaries as a handy A4 page of notes Two single GCSE Foundation Examination practice questions (with answers) - use one as modeling layout example and then the other as an exit ticker or as a review task on your next lesson. Both provided on easy to hand out sticker sheets. PowerPoint display versions included. Workpack of GCSE Foundation Examination practice questions (with answers) to use as the main practice part of the lesson.
