    Solving linear inequalities

    Lesson presentations and activities

    • Two lessons on solving inequalities. One with just the algebra and the second includes forming them from worded situations. The powerpoints have been made to go with exercises from 10 Ticks that are indicated on the title screen. If you liked this resource then please check out my other stuff on here! :)

      Thank you for sharing.

    • This is a rich Venn Diagram activity on inequality notation, regions & solving inequalities.

      To access all the Venn Diagram activities in this collection, as well as teaching notes, please visit: http://www.mrbartonmaths.com/venn.htm

      Here is why I love Venn Diagram activities so much:

      1) Students can always make a start. If they can think of a number/expression/object or whatever it might be, it has to go in one of the regions on the diagram, so they are up and running
      2) The more regions student find, the more challenging the task gets, which adds a nice element of differentiation
      3) They are incredibly versatile, and can be used for almost all maths topics for all ages and abilities
      4) They are easy to tweak by simply changing one of the circle labels if you find they are too difficult/easy
      5) Students can create their own as an extension task

      I hope you and your students enjoy them.

      Great resource - only one problem in that the practice book solutions don't match up with the practice book. Please could you correct this?

    • This was an attempt to make inequalities more interesting and relevent by using them whilst helping the Inequaliser (Bobby McShout) solve a robbery.

      Good one

    • This is in a PDF file because its the only way to put it in one file. The activity is huge, it has 3 levels of difficulty, green being the easiest (showing on a number line) and red being the hardest (solving including squares). Because some of the yellow ones have been scanned back in it means some of the triangles are slightly smaller than others. This doesn't cause a problem when doing the jigsaw. Or it hasn&'t for my kids.

      This was an awesome puzzle as it came in layers - students could get a sense of completion and feel challenged to take on the next tier! Thanks! Since you have the original, perhaps you could fix one small error. For it to work, you have (in yellow) 4(3x+2)>=38, matching x>=3 1/6. The solution should be x>=2.5. However, there is another 2.5, so that made it confusing.
