<p>Powerpoint giving a clear format for teacher to give examples then plenty of question practice. Includes answers.<br /> This resource was designed for a mid set year 8 group.</p>

<p>Differentiated practice questions on the following topics:</p> <ol> <li>Factorising quadratic expressions (Easy)</li> <li>Factorising quadratic expressions (Hard)</li> <li>Solving quadratic equations (Easy)</li> <li>Solving quadratic equations (Hard)</li> <li>Forming and solving quadratic equations</li> <li>Quadratic graphs</li> </ol> <p>Sections 1 and 3 for are suitable for foundation learners<br /> Sections 2, 4, 5 and 6 are aimed at higher ability.</p> <p>Answers for all questions are included.</p>

<p>This activity was designed for a low/mid ability year 9 class for a lesson on expressing one quantity as a percentage of another.</p> <p>The task requires pupils to use the values on the worksheet in combination with those on the power point to create their own percentages. Then pupils can decide whether the statements made by Trump are mathematically accurate.</p> <p>I used it as a group activity but could be completed individually or in pairs.</p> <p>Power point includes all answers.</p> <p>The facts about the USA are true but the statements made by Trump in the activity are fictional.</p>

<p>Resource designed for my lower set year 7 group to introduce the idea of plotting coordinates.<br /> Aimed to convey the idea that axis are used to describe horizontal and vertical position.<br /> Moves onto using this notion to identify coordinates in the first quadrant then plot them.<br /> Resource includes my turn/ your turn exercise then a pirate themed find the treasure task (answer animated on power point).</p>

<p>All in one powerpoint covering Foundation level Indices.<br /> Was designed for a mid set year 10 class.</p> <p>Powerpoint gives clear example questions for teachers to complete so pupils to can copy methods.</p> <p>Then each different index skill has a page of differentiated questions (answers also provided).</p> <p>Skills covered:</p> <p>Multiplying and dividing powers<br /> powers and brackets<br /> fractional powers<br /> negative powers<br /> negative fractional powers</p>

<p>Pupils can shade fractions of various grids to then see how this transposes into the ratio of shaded to unshaded parts.</p> <p>Further this there are questions testing pupils knowledge of converting fractions into ratio.</p> <p>3 levels of difficulty.<br /> Answers included.</p> <p>Designed for my bottom set year 8 class.<br /> But could be a good quick intro for higher sets.</p>

<p>This presentation focuses on rounding values to 1 significant figure in order to approximate answers to questions. The Resource was designed for a foundation year 10 group.</p> <p>The presentation lays out the key points regarding estimation then has slides containing questions allowing the teacher to give clear examples for pupils to copy.</p> <p>Also the presentation includes differentiated question practice for pupils to complete. questions included firstly focus on recapping significant figures then questions on approximating.</p> <p>Answers for all question practice are included in presentation.</p>

<p>Introduction to the concept of rational vs irrational values.</p> <p>Also includes an explanation of how to identify if a decimal is repeating(recurring) or terminating.</p> <p>Then the presentation has practice questions requiring students to convert fractions to decimals and then consider if their answers are terminating or repeating decimals.</p> <p>Also includes some questions converting decimals to fractions by using a knowledge of place value (terminating).</p> <p>Final plenary question considers converting a recurring decimal to a fraction.</p> <p>Depending on the class this could lead into a full lesson on converting recurring decimals into fractions.</p>

<p>Presentation on rounding designed for my mid set year 8 class.</p> <p>Recaps place value and rounding to the nearest 10, 100 and 1000 then goes onto higher and lower bounds (10, 100, 1000).</p> <p>Presentation also contains slides on rounding to a given number of decimal places.</p> <p>Differentiated question practice included covering all skills mentioned above (Answers included).</p>

<p>2 Presentations on surface area of prisms</p> <ol> <li> <p>Surface area of easier prisms such as a cuboid and triangular prisms.</p> </li> <li> <p>Surface area of cylinders.</p> </li> </ol> <p>Both presentations contain an explanation of how the sum of the faces areas will result in the total surface area.</p> <p>Then the presentations contain examples for the teacher to complete with the students.</p> <p>I would recommend for mid to higher ability KS3 or mid KS4 students.</p>

<p>7 mixed Questions on Pythagoras and trigonometry.</p> <p>Makes for a great revision starter for a Foundation year 10/11 class.</p> <p>full worked answers are included.</p>
