2 lessons:
Lesson objectives to solve equations with unknowns on both sides, including equations with brackets.
Includes; step by step guide, worked examples and practice questions.
The big idea is to rewrite both sides of the equation to eliminate like terms. Hence the phrase “Same Value, Looks Different”. It uses money to show that you can can have the same value, but in different ways. Hence, you can rewrite any equation in any way as long as you do not change the value.
2 lessons, includes step by step guide, worked examples and practice questions with solutions.
Objectives:
To be able to represent data in an ordered stem & leaf diagram
2, To be able to find the mode, median and range from an ordered stem and leaf diagram (including Back to Back Steam and Leaf, and comparing two sets of data).
This interactive version allows both students and teachers to move data into the appropriate place on a stem and leaf diagram.

A “How to Find” card sort.
Students given set of cards with methods of finding:
Percentages and Fractions of amounts,
Area and Perimeter,
Volume,
Averages.
The cards include some wrong methods, and also the different methods that can be used.
I designed this to use with Level 1 & 2 FS students but can be used with any age students.
There are 3 pairs of simultaneous equations with their solutions for groups/pairs to sort out and work out which solutions go with which pair of equations.
A series of different number puzzles that require the use of logic and number operations to solve.
I tend to used this with students around the end of term as part of any fun activities in Maths lessons. Would suit more able students.
