Lesson objective:
To be able to find the area of triangles.
The lesson uses students pre-existing knowledge of areas of rectangles and parallelograms to workout how to find areas of triangles. Through a series of worked examples, students should realise that some triangles are either half a rectangle, or half a parallelogram, and hence gain a better understanding of how the formula for the area of a triangle works.
Includes; worked examples, practise questions, and a plenary.
2 lessons, includes a recap on calculating probability, step by step guide, worked examples and practice questions.
Objectives:
To calculate probability by listing all outcomes.
To calculate the probability of independent events, including questions using 'And', 'Or' and 'At Least'.

6-9 lessons in 6 parts.
Designed to increase students understanding through step by step activities.
This Smartboard version allows students to move objects around to help solve problems.
Success Criteria:
Competent:
I can group concrete objects into twos, fives, and tens, and say how many groups of fives there are.
Accomplished:
I can find the total by counting in twos, fives, and tens.
Exceptional:
