A ‘Fun with a Ruler’ art project that involves drawing parabolic curves (curves that are made by drawing a series of straight lines). <br /> <br /> This project involves your students ruling straight lines between 2 dots on a template. When they have finished drawing all of the lines they can give their artwork some colour.<br /> <br /> Each student completes a square. Join the squares together to make an eye-catching display (see image for example).<br /> <br /> Included: <br /> ♦ Template – black dots <br /> ♦ Template – light grey dots<br /> ♦ Example<br /> ♦ Display suggestion<br /> ♦ Instructions<br /> ♦ Teacher notes<br /> <br /> Level of Difficulty: <br /> Your students need to be able to use a ruler to draw straight lines between 2 points (the curves are made with straight lines … it’s like magic!). The designs can look more complicated than they actually are. Concentration is required, but the actual process is not difficult. <br /> <br /> Instructions: <br /> Simple, clear, easy-to-follow instructions are provided. One instruction per page (image and a sentence). Display the instructions via a data projector if you have access to one. Otherwise print and enlarge them and/or demonstrate on an enlarged template.<br /> <br /> Equipment: <br /> You need a ruler and a pen (black works best). Something to colour with (eg coloured pencils, watercolours, felt tip markers, chalk pastels, dye, etc)<br /> <br /> Size: <br /> Each square measures approximately 18.5cm x 18.5cm. Designed on A4 size paper.<br /> <br /> <br /> Keywords: string art, math, geometry, patterns, parabolic curves.<br /> <br /> <br /> © Suzanne Welch Teaching Resources

<p>THESE WILL NEED EDITING AS I HAVE USED THESE FOR A CLASS.</p> <p>A set of 26 references, identifying students skills. Easy to adapt to your class, and highlight where you will need to add in names or change he/she.</p>

<p>In this activity, students will classify angles (graphic and numerical representations) as obtuse, acute, straight, or right. Then, they will color a pattern according to their answers to reveal a beautiful, colorful mandala!</p> <p>This no-prep activity is an excellent resource for sub plans, enrichment/reinforcement, early finishers, and extra practice with some fun. It is especially useful for end-of-year practice, spiral review, and motivated practice when students are exhausted from standardized testing or mentally “checked out” before a long break (hello summer!). Color motivates even the most challenging students and the students get a fun chance to practice their essential geometry skills. In addition, the finished products make fabulous classroom decor!</p>

<p>This powerpoint is designed to cover the statistics required in the OCR A Level Biology specification A. It includes worked examples, practice questions and exam questions. It covers the following statistics:</p> <ol> <li>Standard deviation</li> <li>Chi-squared</li> <li>T-test</li> <li>Spearman rank</li> </ol>

<p>Four National 5 Applications of Maths Common Skills Papers. Each contain a non Calculator (10 questions) and Calculator (8 questions) section along with answers.<br /> These papers provide pupils with the opportunity to practice the skills which commonly appear in the National 5 Applications of Maths exam and are ideal for pupils who are beginning to revise for the final exam. I have used them to boost the confidence of pupils prior to attempting SQA past papers.</p>

<p>Here you will find 40 different homework sheets designed to be given as a worksheet or a homework.</p> <p>Providing students practice questions for all of the basic topics which they tend to forget if not worked on regularly .</p> <p>These sheets also come with all answers provided, to save time for teachers :)</p> <p>Topics covered:<br /> Addition<br /> Subtraction<br /> Multiplication<br /> Division<br /> Rounding<br /> Negative Numbers<br /> Fractions of amounts<br /> Percentages of amounts<br /> Converting a fraction to decimal<br /> Types of number<br /> Sequences<br /> Simplifying fractions<br /> Collecting like terms<br /> Multiplying terms<br /> Expanding a bracket<br /> Factors<br /> Perimeter<br /> Area<br /> Naming polygons<br /> Parts of a circle<br /> Lines of symmetry<br /> Angles on a line<br /> BIDMAS<br /> Function Machines<br /> Ratio sharing<br /> Angles in parallel lines</p> <p>Enjoy :)</p>

<p>These worksheets have been designed to subtly embed the valuable functional skills learners required to get the most out of education, work and everyday life and help them function more confidently, effectively and independently. They can be used effectively in Tutorials, Maths or various other sessions.<br /> This instalment focuses on ‘Reading Timetables’. Learners are tasked with studying 3 different examples, a Bus Timetable, a Swimming Pool Timetable and a College Session Timetable and then extracting the information required to answer the set questions and confirm understanding.<br /> The questions can be answered individually or collectively by cutting them into cards. The larger A3 versions (included) can be displayed around the room for the learners to work in groups. Alternatively, the questions could be called out by the tutor for a more active learning experience. Lots of scope for interpretation, the resources also included some blank question sheets so learners can create some peer to peer questioning.<br /> Feedback is Key, and we value your positive comments and constructive criticism. Post a review, and we will send you another singular resource at the same value of your choice for FREE!<br /> This resource is available to download as a PDF file. Word versions are available, and feel free to message me directly for these formats at <a href="mailto:SmartbooksED@outlook.com" target="_blank" rel="nofollow">SmartbooksED@outlook.com</a></p>

<p>This is a full 30 week scheme of work for functional skills maths. Written by myself for the City and Guilds criteria but still useful for other exam boards. Contains curriculum links, starters, homework suggestions , plenary ideas and ideas for lesson content . Stretch and challenge included and differentiated. There are some links to resources as well, a few lessons include links to PPT, and all resources. Please note that not all suggestions for resources that are written on the scheme include links although if you send me a message I will send you any that you can’t find. Most links are to free resources on TES. Ofsted observed me twice in November and my planning was complimented as a strength on both occasions. Perfect for someone just starting out or more experienced teachers looking for new ideas.</p>
