Vector Geometry and Analysis homework or revision resource
silvestertimsilvestertim

Vector Geometry and Analysis homework or revision resource

(0)
This resource is accompanied by an answer document. It is aimed at students who have been taught to understand vector geometry and vector analysis. Students are required to work with column vectors and vectors expressed using letter notation, to understand parallel and perpendicular vectors, to calculate lengths and angles between vectors, to express unit vectors, and to apply an understanding of vectors within a range of geometric contexts. A grading system based on the new GCSE specification is suggested, but this resource would be equally useful in the US. The paper can be printed onto a single A3 folded sheet and there are a total of 60 marks. It can be used as a homework or a revision resource, or to assess general understanding at the end of the topic with plenty of extension and differentiated content available.
GCSE Algebra Practice

GCSE Algebra Practice

11 Resources
A bundle of algebraic assignments from the two collections of Topic Homework assignments that I have published; this bundle contains a wealth of practice that includes understanding of coordinate geometry, forming and solving equations, factorisation and other aspects of algebraic manipulation, transformation of functions, solving and interpreting inequalities, solving simultaneous equations and quadratics. The papers each comprise 4 pages of increasing complexity, and each assignment comprises a total of 60 marks. Answer booklets are available. I have also included an example from my 'Pure' homework series (comprising 12 papers at both Foundation and Higher level and forming part of my 36 GCSE assignment pack), and a couple of additional free algebra resources that you may find useful.

Maths: 12 Foundation Geometry and Algebra assignments

(0)
This is a series of 12 Foundation homework or revision assignments. They are designed to be used in conjunction with my excel, 'Monitoring' document which allows for all results from the Statistics, Pure and Geometry series to be recorded. These foundation papers are aimed at low to middle ability students. The set can alternatively be purchased to include both Foundation and Higher (for middle to high ability students) versions. They are designed for the new GCSE specification in the UK, and would suit any students within the same age range in other countries. This first series focuses on Geometry and Algebra and are calculator papers. They are easy to mark and provide excellent feedback (the monitoring document allows for results in key topic areas to be analysed, as well as progression as students improve their knowledge and understanding. These assignments have led to sustained improvement of Mathematics results in the College in which the author teaches with students excelling at every ability range.

The content is skills based (as opposed to Use and Application) and assesses Higher type processes such as working with cumulative frequency, upper and lower bounds, factorising quadratics and Pythagoras and Trigonometry. If you are looking for a resource to cover the Foundation type skills, there are Core papers 2, 3 and 4 available in my shop, each comprising 8 pages and of a similar structure to each other, but with values adjusted. You can also purchase Coke Skills 1 and this Extended Skills paper as a pair through my shop, comprising 16 pages of useful practice. These assignments are great revision tools or can be easily used as cover work. My Maths Help Booklet is a useful source of information to assist students with independent learning when completing these papers.
