Interactive Percentage of a Quantity building

(0)
Initially, click on the lego bricks to break them down into smaller percentage proportions. Once all 6 base blocks are revealed, click on them stack up the required percentage. Scroll through the examples and uncover the base building blocks by cliking on the covers. Once all base builing blocks have been revealed, build the required percentage by clicking on each block to stack them up.

Dicovering Pythagoras

(1)
An interactive geogebra applet that allows the teacher (or students on ipads/in computer room if uploaded onto geogebra website) to create right angle triangles using a set number of standard squares. Students can record their trials and try to spot any relationships between the size of the squares that work. An accompanying worksheet and lesson plan to match. You need geogebra installed (free) or use the web applet that does not require geogebra to be installed.
Area and prism generator
ward309ward309

Area and prism generator

(0)
An interactive geogebra applet that generates most shapes of interest including… ==>triangles ==>squares ==>rectangles ==>parallelograms ==>trapeziums ==>regular…pentagons,hexagons,heptagons,octagons,nonagons,decagons ==>circles …at the press of a button (use the slider to change shape). Good for use with an interactive whiteboard to practice finding the area. This can then be converted into a prism using the ‘add layer’ button so that students can form the links betweeen area and volume. Keep adding layers to generate the prism or use the ‘generate prism’ button to generate a random depth prism. Each layer can be dragged away from the prism to justify mutliplying by the depth. You either need geogebra installed on your machine or use the web link to use the resource within a web browser without the need to install geogebra.

ward309ward309

Interactive trigonometry question generator and solver

(0)
An interactive geogebra applet that generates right-angled trigonometry questions. Good for use on an interactive whitebaord or projector. You can generate random ‘missing length’ examples or ‘missing angle’ examples at a press of a button as well as specific sin/cos/tan length or angle questions. You can hide/reveal the multiplier in each questions as well as the answer. Please ensure you have geogebra installed on your machine or use the web link to show the applet in a web browser without the need of installing geogebra.
Probability tree generator

Probability tree generator

(0)
A dynamic and interactive probability tree structure generator. Generate questions and create the corresponding tree so students can practice interpreting questions. This is a geogebra applet so you need the application installed or use the web link so you can use within a web browser without the need of installing geogebra
Investigating Circumference and Diameter (Discovering Pi)
ward309ward309

Investigating Circumference and Diameter (Discovering Pi)

(0)
An interactive geogebra applet that enables students to investigate the relationship between the diameter and circumference by measuring the diameter (drag the blue cross), unrolling the circle and measuring the circumference (drag the red cross). Students can zoom in to improve the estimation of pi. Either use by installing geogebra or use the web address also included to use the app through a web browser.
Linking Displacement Velocity and Acceleration Graphs
ward309ward309

Linking Displacement Velocity and Acceleration Graphs

(0)
A set of interactive geogebra applets that dynamically links displacement, velocity and acceleration graphs. Show or hide the graphs using the controls or click the trace points button and drag the velocity point to slowly reveal the traced graphs. Make as many new examples as your students need. You will need geogebra installed on your machine but this is not a necessity as I have also attached the web links to use these applets in your choice of web browser. I have found this useful for both the new A level and GCSE (1-9 higher) specs. Two student worksheets also included.
Combining Ratio (As seen in new Edexcel 1MA1 papers 1-9 GCSE)
ward309ward309

Combining Ratio (As seen in new Edexcel 1MA1 papers 1-9 GCSE)

(0)
Two interactive geogebra applets that generate two specific type of combining ratio questions as seen in the first two new Edexcel GCSE papers (1MA0) 1-9. Generate as many examples as your students need and model the solution by using the applet to… ==> Reveal the ratios and thier totals (see cover image) ==> Drag the points to highlight matching ratio parts (see cover image) ==> Generate equivalent ratios using the multiplier finger (see cover image) You can use these if you have geogebra installed but it is not a necessity as I have also attached the web links so you can use the applets in your web browser.
