Perimeter of compound shapes

Perimeter of compound shapes

(21)
Presentation and worksheet for middle ability Y8 students. (50 minute lesson.) Could be extended for students to calculate area as well.
Types of data - discrete vs continuous

Types of data - discrete vs continuous

(30)
Qualitative vs quantitative, discrete vs continuous. 1. Cards to sort into two groups - may think of any way to split. 2. Flipchart to structure lesson with links to short videos etc. 3. PowerPoint quiz - identify whether discrete or continuous.
Summary worksheet for y=mx+c
madalienmadalien

Summary worksheet for y=mx+c

(10)
Worksheet to complete topic (or as homework). Identify gradient/y-intercept from 3 equations and 3 graphs; sketch 3 graphs using y=mx+c.
Fractions - dividing explained

Fractions - dividing explained

(8)
Dividing fraction by whole number and vice versa; divide v=fraction by fraction. Slide towards end to discuss results so far to try to elicit "invert and multiply" rule. Two examples with diagrams for each.
y=mx+c match cards

y=mx+c match cards

(12)
Nine sets of cards to match with graph, equation and pair of coordinates. 4 with same gradient, 3 same intercept, two negative gradient. 3/4/14 I've recently uploaded a PowerPoint on the same topic as a separate resource
Reflection and rotation symmetry

Reflection and rotation symmetry

(10)
9 examples of each to show on whiteboard. Pupils write down (on personal whiteboard?) how many lines of symmetry/order of rotational symmetry. Then reveal answer on IWB. Rotations are 'animated'. Revision/plenary exercise?
Depreciate my Ferrari!

Depreciate my Ferrari!

(3)
Percentage increase and decrease. Table for depreciating a Ferrari over 5+ years. (10/2/14) Second worksheet added with similar compound interest example.
Sequences - using/finding nth term - scaffolded

Sequences - using/finding nth term - scaffolded

(4)
Use nth term rule and find nth term for linear expressions (2-sided worksheet for each). Worksheets scaffolded. First with missing terms and second to find multiplier and difference between that times table and the sequence given.\n\nNot a lot different to exercises in books but hopefully attractive and less intimidating (limited number of questions!) for a lower ability group.
Mean - missing data and combined data
madalienmadalien

Mean - missing data and combined data

(5)
Find the missing number given mean and other numbers. Find mean of combined data sets.\n\nCould use with mini-whiteboards as each step animated.\n\n(16/6/14 added WALT and starter)
Solve equations with two unknowns
madalienmadalien

Solve equations with two unknowns

(1)
Set out algebraically (rather than using picture puzzles). Finding solutions with limits (eg. only positive integers). Challenge questions are (implicitly) simultaneous. Used with bright Y6 group.
Simple and compound interest - scaffolded
madalienmadalien

Simple and compound interest - scaffolded

(1)
Example and 5 main questions. Straightforward amounts of money and interest rates for 2 to 4 years. All scaffolded as tables. (Need to be able to find 10%, 5% and 2% using a calculator.) 3 challenge questions where they have to draw out their own tables. Answers provided. (Question 5 and the Challenges have been rounded to pence - use your own judgement regards acceptable values!)
