For those tricky topics where students remember the keyword but not the meaning. These mini mind maps jog the memory and lead to student-controlled discussions in the run up to exams.
Training students how to use a calculator to perform basic calculations using +, -, x, / before progressing onto problem solving and extracting the figures needed for the calculation.
My daughter in Year 4 recently expressed her frustrations with problem solving: "First you have to extract the figures and then you have to work out which calculation to use. " Around the same time, a Year 11 student said honestly “I miss it out the calculation question because it is words and numbers together, so it looks hard.”
Both of these comments resonated with me and thus I have created this resource as an induction to the GCSE Business course to show students the types of calculations they may encounter and how to problem solve in a business context.
Common misconceptions from Year 11 Mock Exam - broken down into structure diagrams addressing key memory aids for these topics. Also includes a resource with sentence starters to help students structure answers when under pressure in exams. Hoping these resources can help other Year 11 students preparing for the GCSE Business exam. Good luck to them all.
