Lesson objective: To solve problems involving similar shapes where the scale factor is known or can be found.
In this lesson, students will learn what scale factor is and how to find out what scale factor a shape has been enlarged by. They will learn how we use scale factor in real life contexts and will use their knowledge of factors and multiples to work out what scale factor shapes have been enlarged by. During the main teaching input through the presentation, they will relate this to a variety of different shapes as well as model aircrafts used during WW2.
They will then complete 3 differentiated levels of problem solving worksheets. Answers are also provided.
