I've designed this lesson to build up students knowledge of how to estimate.
BONUS Activity - Wheel of fortune estimation quiz activity. Spin the wheel, click the section the arrow lands on, get the team to answer the question, check the answer, click the home button to go back to the wheel. (When on presentation mode you can type in the teams current score on the main slide).
It begins with 10 quick questions. These focus on a students knowledge of rounding, the last 5 questions focus on rounding to 1 significant figure. The slides automatically progress to the next when when you press the start button. (The next question appears every 8 seconds)
Estimation including single steps
- 2 examples
- 3 Mini Whiteboard Questions
- Bronze, Silver & Gold Your Turn Section.
Estimation multiple steps
- 2 examples
- 2 Mini Whiteboard Questions
- Bronze, Silver & Gold Your Turn Section.
The resource then in includes a differentiated focused activity which progressively gets harder. This gives students a chance to master and enhance their skills. It includes 4 separate sections: skills 1, 2 & 3 and a stretch 1. These are all displayed on the same slide for ease of use, however could be printed as a worksheet. The PDF's of these slides have been attached to make printing easier and cheaper.
Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation with several exam style questions including answers.
I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have. Any of the the slides could be printed as worksheets if you feel that would be easier for your class.

I've designed this resource to allow students to explore negative numbers from the basics.
It begins with a brief look at where negative numbers are used in real life.
This then leads to looking at the number line and finding missing numbers and rules.
Students then need to identify if a number is less than, equal to or more than another number or sum.
I've then created an interactive game where the students can come to the board and pop the bubbles in the correct order. (The bubbles move after a few seconds when in presentation mode). This then lists the order underneath. If a bubble is missed out there is a gap left and a discussion can be had about which number they missed and why etc..
There is then a written activity to be completed of order lists of numbers.
Students then start to look at temperature and the differences between negative and positive numbers. This leads into an activity on the difference of temperatures between different capital cities.
Then to finish there is an application on how this could be seen in an exam situation including answers.
I hope you find this resource as useful as my students have.
