GCSE Maths : Inequalities Revision KS4

(0)
This series of work is designed to revise inequalities with both Foundation and higher level students looking at solving the simplest of inequalities up to the more complicated quadratic inequalities. The PowerPoint is backed up with worksheets and I have included the worksheet Generator. (simply hit F9 on the computer and new worksheets are generated)
Decimal, Fraction & percentage conversions

Decimal, Fraction & percentage conversions

(1)
This revision lesson reminds students how we can convert decimals into either fractions or percentages. Fractions into decimals or percentages and percentages into decimals or fractions. These revision lessons work with the teacher going through a couple of examples, which I get the students to copy down into their books, so that they have something to refer back to later. Then the students answer a number of questions to ensure they understand the work. The I move to the next slide and do much the same. I find that this has really helped with the low ability students moving their learning form short term to long term.

Direct & Inverse Proportion Revision

(0)
This revision lesson looks at the ability to answer a variety of questions related to direct or inverse proportion. As with the other revision lessons in the shop, the lesson is constructed with multiples of two worked examples before students attempt some similar questions. Answers are provided.

Mathematics Easter egg hunt

(0)
Mathematics Games to play close to Easter. A series of Mathematics games that can be played in the classroom or even placed around the school play ground for break and lunchtime activities. Each game consists of twelve questions written onto twelve pictured easter eggs. The idea is that the students know the starting card but initially have no idea of the last card. The aim of the game is to answer the questions in the correct order thereby revealing a code. The student can then submit the correct code to the teacher and maybe receive a reward of some kind! The games consist of : Addition Addition & Subtraction Multiplication Long Multiplication Fractions of a quantity Percentages of a quantity Solving algebraic equations

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 answer sheet provided here is for the free resource I have provided on the TES.

GCSE Mathematics : Exact Trig Values
sjcoopersjcooper

GCSE Mathematics : Exact Trig Values

(0)
This lesson teaches students the exact trig values for the sin cos and tan of 30, 45, 60 and 90 degrees. The lesson shows two ways to remember the values by either table or triangles. The lesson is also accompanied with several worksheets. The idea being that one worksheet is given at the end of teaching the lesson for students to demonstrate what they now know. Then throughout the year or two further worksheets can be given to check on them retaining the information taught.
