The following presentation was created for the Applications and Interpretations SL course following the order of teaching for the Kognity textbook but can also be used with the Pearson or Oxford textbook. The PowerPoint goes through the following: -what is a relation? -domain and range -set and interval notation -vertical asymptotes -what is a function? -mapping diagrams -vertical line test -function notation -forming equations from mapping diagrams -linear models -linear simultaneous equations -inverse functions -horizontal line test -domain and range for inverse functions -piecewise functions Throughout the PowerPoint there are worked examples along with exercises for students. I have also included a few Desmos and Geogebra interactive links to help students get a better understanding of the concepts through visuals. At the end of each section I have included IB exam questions so students get get practice to the types and style of questioning they should expect to see when they write their exams.

The following activity will allow students to use their knowledge on trigonometry along with applications on their phone and computer to estimate the height of the tree. The students will use 3 different methods to measure the height of a tree and at the end will comment on which method is the most accurate assuming the last method is the closest estimate. Students really enjoyed going outside and applying their skills to this task. This activity is a great investigation for those looking to move in the the IB BP program.

This unit contains 2 Powerpoints: Integration Trapezium Rule Through the PowerPoint there are links to Youtube videos, GeoGebra and Desmos interactives. The PowerPoint has worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic.

30+ linear simultaneous equation problems. The PowerPoint starts with a quick recap on how to solve using either substitution or elimination. Most problems require students to transfer skills from other contexts in order to solve the problem. Problems include, linear and quadratic sequence, equations of quadratic graphs, angle properties, equation of a line, area and perimeter, index rules, HCF & LCM, pressure and density, etc.

20 Maths starters for targeting grades 4 - 6 on a Higher Paper. Also works well if teaching a boarder line class with a few students writing the Foundation Exam. Most starters have complete solutions. Questions are taken from various Edexcel Exam papers and contains questions from levels 4 - 9. Certain higher level questions are given for students to transfer their skills and obtain some of the marks.

This activity requires students to gather data to construct a scatter graph. After students have constructed the scatter graph they then have to find the equation of the line of best fit and use that to make a prediction of how many bands are needed for the bungee jump. Calculations will be off which lead to the discussion of interpolation and extrapolation and why maths in the real world does not always match up with theoretical predictions. The PowerPoint comes with a worksheet that students will use to fill in. I have also attached an egg version. The activity will take at least 2 days. One day to gather their information and the second to test their predictions.

The lesson looks at the differences between a linear and quadratic sequences graphically and focusing on finite differences, thus leading to the nth term. The lesson identifies two methods for finding the nth term of a quadratic sequence with multiple questions in different contexts. Questions also have students transferring skills from other topics such as area, solving equations, simultaneous equations, etc. This lesson can also be used with AQA Further Maths students as the PowerPoint ens with limiting value of a sequence.

I have also included a few Desmos and Geogebra interactive links to help students get a better understanding of the concepts through visuals. At the end of each section I have included IB exam questions so students get get practice to the types and style of questioning they should expect to see when they write their exams. I also have included a few thinking questions, a few taken from American SAT exams. There are also links to YouTube videos to help students understanding with certain content.

The following PowerPoint covers the following topics following the Oxford textbook. Topics covered include: Functions * reation * domain and range * mapping diagrams * number system * set notation * interval notation * what is a function * vertical line test * function notation (numerical, graphical, and algebraic) * finding equation of functions from a mapping diagram Linear Models * recap equation of a line * rates of change * simultaneous equations * direct proportion * inverse functions * domain and range * horizontal line test (one-to-one) * finding inverse functions Arithmetic Sequences Arithmetic Series * sigma notation Simple interest Modelling Through the PowerPoint there are links to youtube videos, GeoGebra and Desmos interactives, and Desmos Classroom activities. The PowerPoint has worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic.

The following contains PowerPoint goes through the following: -the reciprocal function -recap some transformations which has been learnt earlier -horizontal and vertical asymptotes (vertical asymptotes have been mentioned earlier when students learnt domain and range) -sketching rational functions looking at end behaviours -finding horizontal asymptotes by taking the limit and by making x the subject (2 methods) -solving algebraic fractions -inverse functions -application questions The PowerPoints have worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic. There are also links to videos and inter-actives throughout.

This game is intended for an EOY 12 Exam. Units covered during the year were Number & Algebra, Functions, and Statistics and Probability. There is no probability questions in this game. The game has all the music and sounds like the real game on TV. Students really enjoy it.

The following lesson goes through the following: -translations -enlargements (vertical and horizontal) -reflections (both axis) -parent functions The PowerPoint has worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic. The idea of this lesson is for students to understand transformations and apply it to any function, hence why I talk about different parent functions (base curves).

The following are 5 quizzes created for online teaching through Microsoft Teams. All 5 quizzes are multiple choice, so self marking. The 5 quizzes cover the entire topic of linear functions which are as follow: Straight Line Graphs; graphing, finding an equation, finding gradient, interpreting equation, rearranging equations (25 questions) Parallel and Perpendicular Lines (19 questions) Modelling Linear Functions – Real Life Graphs (14 questions) Distance and Midpoint (10 questions) Equations of Perpendicular Bisectors (5 questions)

The Following lesson introduces the concept of common factoring through numerical calculators where students find quicker and easier ways to mental calculator sums through the use of common factoring. It then moves on to algebraic factoring with visual displays (algebraic tiles) and finishes with piecewise factoring. The idea is to move from piecewise factoring onto expanding double brackets.

Lesson 1: Quadratic Sequences Lesson 2: Completing the Square Lesson 3: Iteration Lesson 4: Composite Functions Each lesson includes worked examples and practice questions. Alternative methods are shown for completing the square. Iteration lesson includes a video and graphical representation of how iteration works to deepen student understanding.

Th bundle contains 32 days worth of starters. Each stater comprises of 2 questions. One being of level 4 or 5 and the other of level 7 to 9. The idea is that students will practice both questions from the beginning and ending of the exam. I find higher level students tend to make mistakes early of in the exam and this allows them to practice these types of questions in class. Thus helping to improve results.

The following contains PowerPoint goes through the following: -the normal distribution curve -calculating probabilities with and without technology -the standard normal distribution -calculating probabilities using z-score -using the inverse function -finding unknown mean and standard deviation The PowerPoints have worked examples, and student exercises. I have also put in past paper exam questions for each topic. There are also links to videos and inter-actives throughout.

Here is a great activity to do as a group, pairs or individually. I haven’t created it but wanted to share it with others. This activity looks at quadratics given in different forms; table of values, graphically, in words, and in standard form. The idea is to see which birds hit the pigs. There are 5 versions of this activity which is great. Students don’t need to know about vertex form (completing the square) for this activity, but do need to understand that the axis of symmetry is half way between the roots.
