Full mastery lesson about finding missing terms in linear sequences. Focuses on using the constant difference of linear sequences to find one missing term and leads on to finding two consecutive missing terms in a sequence. Includes intelligently varied worksheet which gets progressively more difficult to stretch all students. Powerpoint includes many challenge questions to stretch most able and hints to support less able learners, making it accessible for most abilities across late KS2 and early KS3. Includes ‘quiz, quiz, trade’ activity to review all sequences work as this was taught as the last lesson in a topic.

Full mastery lesson on recognising and continuing non-linear sequences. Recaps the difference between linear and nonlinear sequences and then covers geometric and ‘special’ nonlinear sequences, including square numbers and Fibonacci sequence. Includes intelligently varied worksheet and many challenge questions throughout lesson to stretch most able. Lesson is accessible for late KS2 and early KS3 classes. Plenary is quiz activity to engage students.

Full lesson on relating ratio to linear functions with worksheet and self/ peer assessment grids included. Brought in for the new AQA GCSE spec, it includes a model solution to a past AQA exam question but resource is also suitable for high ability year 9. Uses bar modelling to teach for understanding. Linked to sketching graph of linear functions for added challenge.

Full lesson including differentiated questions built into powerpoint. Intended to be used following lessons on algebraic notation so students understand which operation is being ‘done’ to the variable. Suitable for KS3 and lower ability KS4.

Full mastery lesson on representing sequences, focusing on students’ ability to recognise and represent the same sequence in number, diagram, tabular and graphical form. Includes intelligently varied worksheets, as well as sheets of images from the powerpoint helpful for students to go through as examples. Planned for a mixed ability class, this resource includes challenge questions to stretch the most able and hints to scaffold for less able students, which also makes it accessible for late KS2 and early KS3 classes.

Lesson is designed to be taught following a lesson on using single decimal multiplier for percentage increase and decrease and this is recapped at the beginning of this lesson. Taught to high ability Year 8 but could also be appropriate for KS4.

Full mastery lesson on recognising and continuing linear sequences. Focus on recognising the constant difference of linear sequences, from number sequences, diagrams etc and leads on to using the constant difference to continue linear sequences. Includes several intelligently varied worksheets as well as regular challenge questions and hints, making this resource accessible to late KS2 and early KS3 and accessible to most abilities.
