GCSE Higher level Mathematics revision game

GCSE Higher level Mathematics revision game

(0)
GCSE Higher level Mathematics run around game This activity is aimed at Higher level students who are revising for their GCSE examination. Each round consists of four questions. Print the slides 8 to 13 on A4 paper and place one printed slide per table. (For a higher level set this may need printing more than once) Students are put into pairs (either by choice or teacher selection) and are given a copy of slide 14 and a few sheets of pieces of A4 paper. The pairs are designated a starting table and the timer (slide 2) is started. The students are then given 5 minutes to answer the four questions on that table. Once the five minutes is up the students move clockwise to the next table and start the next set of four questions and the timer of slide 3 is started. This continues until all students have completed the six tables worth of questions. The answering of the questions takes no more than 30 minutes. Students then remain at their final table, swap their answer sheet with the nearest table and the answers are produced. At this stage I go through the questions before revealing the answers. In this way the students have had a go at GCSE style Higher level questions and have also seen a demonstration as to how they should have been answered. Finally, students add up their score and the highest score get a prize!

sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a sector and Arc length

(0)
These two PowerPoints are designed for students at GCSE level. Through worked examples students learn how to work out the area of a sector or the length of an arc. The lessons are accompanied with two worksheets one for each lesson. Answers are included.

This lesson is a PowerPoint which through a series of worked examples shows students how to divide a given decimal by a given integer value.
Calculating the mean
sjcoopersjcooper

Calculating the mean

(0)
This Powerpoint consists of a variety of worked examples which demonstrate how we can calculate the mean. I use this lesson with students who have probably met the topic before but require a revisit to the topic. I usually use this lesson before I introduce student to the "fx" column and therefore questions involving the frequency table.
Pictograms

Dividing into a given Ratio

(0)
The series of worksheets and worksheet generator looks at a variety of ratio questions students could meet in the new GCSE examination. The first worksheets look at the more basic dividing into a given ratio. subsequent worksheets look at the more complicated ratio questions that appear on the papers and many students struggle to answer. The reason behind the generated question excel package is that you can generate an infinite number of worksheets. Hence students can have endless practice at this questions. Alternatively you can generate a complete set of different questions so that each member of the class has their own set to answer!

sjcoopersjcooper

Completing the Square & Quadratic Formula

(0)
These two lessons cover the topics of completing the square and using the quadratic formula solving quadratics. The worked examples also include a proof of the quadratic formula through completing the square. After a series of worked examples there are questions for the students to complete.
Differential Equations
sjcoopersjcooper

Differential Equations

(0)
This lesson is an introduction to differential equations which is required at Core 4 level and also in the later mechanics work. There are several worked examples which demonstrate how to separate he variables and then use their knowledge of integration.
Volume of revolution
sjcoopersjcooper

Volume of revolution

(0)
This lesson teaches the students how to find the volume of a curve that has been rotated through four right angles about the x-axis. This is done through a series of worked examples.
Circumference of a circle
sjcoopersjcooper

Circumference of a circle

(0)
Lesson introduces students again to pi (as with the area resource). However this time students are able to work out the formula for the Circumference of a circle if they have already used my resource for the Area of a circle. The lesson has a variety of examples to be answered at the board and ends with a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
Area of a circle
sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a circle

(0)
A lesson introduces the students to pi. Students work out for themselves with little guidance that pi is approximately 3 or even 3.1. This also gives the teacher the opportunity to introduce the formula for the area of the circle. The follow up lesson also on this resource has several examples involving finding the areas of circles. The resource also contains a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
The Cosine Rule
sjcoopersjcooper

The Cosine Rule
