Includes definition of irrational numbers and surds, multiplying and dividing with surds, using FOIL to multiply brackets and use of DOTS techniques as well as rationalising the denominator.
These are hand drawn summary worksheets to help GCSE students memorise the important rules about surds. There is a cartoon style “how to” sheet and a mind map. Both of these have gaps for the student to fill in information. Answer sheets are also included.
They are a bit different to ordinary notes/knowledge organisers and I find them useful for students who can be quite able at maths but struggle to remember information.
Different colours can be used on each strand of the mind map to give students another"peg" to hang the information on.
I use the information/“how to” sheet while I am teaching/recapping a topic and then ask the students to learn the information. I use the mind map the next lesson to see what the students can remember and as a second revision opportunity but there are probably many different ways they could be used.
