Quadratic Inequalities

Quadratic Inequalities

(0)
A full lesson on quadratic inequalities. The starter is solving by factorising. It then has full worked examples and questions/answers on sketching quadratics. It then leads on to fully worked quadratic inequality examples, and then has a differentiated solving quadratics activity. The harder ones require rearranging, making them also suitable for A-level. The plenary is a spotting mistakes activity, which will allow you to see which students fully understand the topic.

Product of Primes

(0)
This resource was used with my high ability Year 7 students. This could be used for higher year groups or adapted for other ability groups. I used this after my lesson on Divisibility tests (available for free). It covers firstly the Sieve of Eratosthenes, then why we would find the prime factorisation. There is then examples of how to express a number as a product of primes, and a worksheet on this. The lesson then progresses to using the prime factorisation to find all the factors of a number and roots of a number. The lesson has all answers provided.
HCF and LCM

HCF and LCM

(0)
This resource is designed to be used after my lessons on divisibility tests and product of primes. This full lesson covers finding the HCF and LCM using prime factorisation. It includes some written problems and also finding HCF and LCM when numbers are given as product of primes. The lesson is fully animated and contains solutions throughout.
Squares, cubes and roots

Squares, cubes and roots

(0)
This lesson runs through squaring, cubing, square rooting and cube rooting. At each point it covers the history and background of the topic, and also the key skills associated. This is a non-calculator lesson and is based around them learning and being familiar with the first 15 square numbers and 8 cube numbers. There are two embedded activities based around the above, and included is my pixel colouring activity on squares, cubes and roots. There is also a challenge activity based on Waring’s problem for cubes. Reviews are appreciated and more lessons can be found on my shop.
Written methods

Written methods

(0)
A lesson on written methods. It could be used for KS3 or upper KS2. Included is a powerpoint which works through the following: - initial understanding check - Multiplying by numbers ending in .5, with differentiated activity and answers - Addition and subtracting , with defuse the bomb activity - Addition and subtracting with decimals, with Tarsia activity - Then a lesson involving dividing decimals, all problems centred around money. There is an unscramble on this including written problems. This should be a couple of lessons worth of work! The powerpoint is set to a pink background for my dyslexic students but this could be changed easily!

Pythagoras' Theorem Series of lessons

(0)
Please be reassured that when downloaded the slides are all properly formatted and animated, the preview does not do justice. This is a 3 lesson pack for teaching Pythagoras’ Theorem. I would aim this at top level foundation and higher as some of the questions are higher order and involve applying other skills. It includes questions on missing hypotenuses and shorter sides, as well as applied questions leading to finding areas of isosceles/equilateral triangles and other shapes. Included are also questions on missing diagonals in squares and rectangles. Answers are included for all (including worked solutions for all questions and exam questions), and I would recommend calculator use throughout.

Primes, squares, cubes and roots

4 Resources
This bundle includes my lessons on the following: Squares, cubes and roots Divisibility tests Product of primes HCF and LCM I would normally teach them in the above order. These lessons provide enough material for at least an hour on each. All lessons have full answers and are designed to be challenging (and non-calculator). My students enjoy learning the history behind subjects and why we learn them, so the lessons incorporate this where possible. All lessons include full activities and stretch and challenge possibilities. Topics covered include: Squaring/Cubing/Square rooting/Cube rooting Divisibility tests up to 11 Primes up to 100 Expressing as product of primes Using prime factorisation to find all factors and square roots of numbers HCF and LCM by prime factorisation (venn diagram) including when numbers are given in prime factorised form HCF and LCM written problems Extensions link to UKMT problems Reviews are much appreciated!
