Challenging Maths activities. These activities are from the nrich website. I have changed the format and made it for user friendly, it can be used with KS3 and KS4.
Unit 3
Circles, Volume and Surface Area • Calculate circumference and area (C); calculate arc length and sector area (A)
• Calculate volumes and surface areas of prisms (C)
• Use p in exact calculations (B)
• Solve problems involving surface areas and volumes of cylinders, cones, spheres (A to A*)
• Analyse dimensions of perimeter/area/volume formulae (B)
Unit 6
Pythagoras and Trigonometry • Use Pythagoras’ Theorem (C)
• Use trigonometry in right-angled triangles (B)
• Use Pythagoras’ Theorem and trigonometry in 3D problems (A to A*)
Unit 4
Statistics I (Collecting and Representing Data; Correlation) • Design and criticise questionnaires (C)
• Use stratified sampling methods (A)
• Construct and use pie charts and frequency polygons (D)
• Construct and interpret histograms with unequal class intervals (A)
• Draw and use a line of best fit on scattergraph (C)
<p>In light of the latest pandemic, I have created a Home School Pack for KS1 students.</p>
<p>This pack follows the current curriculum and promotes independent learning,<br />
including, maths, english, art, logic puzzles.</p>
<p>Feel free to print off and use.</p>
<p>Enjoy!</p>
Unit 9
Ratio and Proportion • Solve ratio and proportion number problems (C), including conversions (D) and other contexts
• Solve direct and inverse proportion problems using algebra (A)
