This worksheet will help low ability students solving simple equations using function machines / arrow diagrams. Two examples are included to help students understanding, and step by step, students will need to draw the whole diagram on their own.
A straight forward resource that can be use as a revision exercise, as an help sheet, as a worksheet or as homework. It will help students remembering how to find the equation of a line and give them a chance to find six equations by themselves.
I created this resource for my year 10 class and they loved it!<br />
It is an investigation task that they can do in group. The aim is to plot the distance time graph of the Tortoise and the Hare story. Then there are a few questions to they have to answer, using their graph. Answers are included in the presentation as well as differentiated student answer sheets on which they need to plot their graph.
Here are 8 great displays that we produced with my colleagues from The Compton last year :)<br />
We spend a lot of time and put a lot of effort researching how to best put maths in context, keeping our displays inspiring, nice and visual. For KS3, KS4 and even A level. Hope you can use them in your school too!
This resource can be given to students or just used and an help sheet to share on tables. It should help students to do basic calculations involving squares, cubes, square roots and cube roots.
Why do we use sometimes use parametric equations and not Cartesian equations? Here is the answer :)<br />
A real life application to put into context the meaning of parametric equations.<br />
Notes have been added on each slide of the presentation.<br />
My year 13 loved it :) Enjoy!
Here are the displays that my colleagues and I realised for the Maths corridor at The Compton School this year. We spend a lot of time and effort so we are happy to share :) We hope you like them too!
This worksheet is straightforward and will help students setting out their working properly.<br />
It gives them an example of 2 by 1, 2 by 2, 3 by 1, 3 by 2, and 3 by 3 digits multiplication.
Revision session<br />
<br />
Students will revise how to answer specific A-A* questions improving their exam strategies.<br />
<br />
Students will also develop their critical thinking (spot the mistake) and by using a real mark scheme, students will be able to know better what is expected from them in the exam.<br />
<br />
• Revision booklets (one per student) ; each table has a different A* question revision booklet:<br />
- Table 1: Rearranging and area<br />
- Table 2: Conversion and real life problem<br />
- Table 3: Upper and lower bounds and similar shapes<br />
- Table 4: Trigonometric functions<br />
- Table 5: Algebraic fractions<br />
- Table 6: Proof and vectors<br />
• Expert packs: containing all the different booklets<br />
<br />
Process explained in the lesson plan<br />
A resource to make your students work on Why we divide by 2 the second difference of quadratic sequences to find a (in an2+bn+c).<br />
Answer included :)
I created this resource to include SMSC and literacy within a lesson on coordinates. My students really loved this lesson as it is linked to a real news fact. They made a very good progress, especially on how to draw axis properly!<br />
The learning objectives are:<br />
Being able to plot and read coordinates in four quadrants grid (negatives and decimals)<br />
Being able to find the missing coordinate of a quadrilateral<br />
Being able to recognize and plot perfect axis<br />
This display gives a structure to students about how to answer a Maths question. The teacher can easily refer to the display during the lesson to promote independant and structured work.
This resource is very useful to help students calculating percentages of amounts. It can be used as a wall display or as a lesson help sheet/aide memoire.
