Different Problem, Same Answer!
This resource contains problem-solving tasks for pupils aged 11-16 years.
Each pupil will have a different worksheet to that of their neighbour yet they will arrive at the same answer.
All of the activities have a worked solution (or solutions). The tasks include algebra, geometry, proof, circle theorems, trigonometry, sequences, sine rule, integration, probability, projectiles, simultaneous equations and more.
Pupils can’t copy the working from a neighbour – they could copy the method (but that is not such a bad thing).
There is a wow factor - how can all the answers be the same? The stronger pupils will want to find out why and this leads them to want to prove it - voluntarily!
The tasks should promote discussing mathematics in and out of the classroom.
There are over 90 different tasks to choose from at the website: www.differentproblemsameanswer.co.uk.
From this page you can download the worksheets for three tasks. But there are over 90 more and you can find them (and the worked solutions) on the website above.
