GCSE Foundation Mathematics Revision  Game

GCSE Foundation Mathematics Revision Game

(1)
This activity is aimed at Foundation 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. 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. For this run around calculators are placed on the table for questions 1 to 4 and table for questions 13 to 16 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 foundation 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!

Paper 1 Mathematics papers for Foundation & Higher

(1)
Here are two papers for mathematics examinations aimed at non calculator for foundation and higher. These papers can not be obtained by students on the internet. Hence are ideal for end of term (or year) assessments. Solutions are included.

GCSE Run around Game 6 This game is aimed at foundation students who have just been revising certain topics. Topics covered in this game are Sequences nth term Solving equations Dividing into a given ratio Factorising Decimals. This activity is aimed at Foundation 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.

Decimal, Fraction & percentage conversions
sjcoopersjcooper

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.
Percentages revision with a calculator
sjcoopersjcooper

Percentages revision with a calculator

(0)
This revision lesson looks at working out a percentage of a quantity with a calculator. The revision continues then looks at percentage increase, decrease and concludes with compound measures. The lesson is therefore ideal for both foundation or higher level students.

14 Resources
This bundle continues with the revision lessons for year 11 students at Higher and/or foundation level. This initial bundle contains roughly 14 hours of revision lessons on Standard Form Percentages of a quantity Properties of a velocity time graph (area under a graph & gradient of a tangent to the curve) Factorising and removing brackets for up to three brackets. Pie charts & Scatter diagrams Inverse & direct proportion Circle problems Simultaneous equations Dividing into a ratio and others...
Drawing Quadratic Curves Revision
sjcoopersjcooper

Drawing Quadratic Curves Revision

(0)
This PowerPoint is a revision lesson were students revise the ability to work out y coordinates for a given quadratic curve and then draw the curve. The lesson is structured so that they follow two examples at the board before attempting the next two by themselves, before looking at a couple of more complicated questions. Then once again having a go at a couple. The revision lesson (as with most of my revision lessons) are designed to last at least one hour in length. I tend to get the students to copy the examples in their book.
Solving Equations

Solving Equations

(0)
These worksheets (and answers) look at solving simple equations moving u to solving equations involving a bracket. I use these worksheets initially to compliment the lesson being taught and subsequent worksheets are follow up through out the year to help with retention.
Sequences
sjcoopersjcooper

Sequences

(0)
This series of worksheets looks at sequences. Continuing a sequence, the nth term of a linear sequence and the nth term of a quadratic sequence. I use these worksheets initially to accompany the lessons being taught and then as followup work to help with retention.
Fractions of a quantity

Fractions of a quantity

(0)
Introduction lessons to fractions of a quantity ideal for Key stage 2 or key stage 3 children. The first lesson looks at one half, one third, etc... of a quantity followed by one or two worksheets if required. The second lesson then looks at slightly more complicated fractions of a quantity. Again with worksheets to accompany the lesson.
