Find CF and HCF of Algebraic Expressions

(0)
Lesson looking at finding Common Factors and Highest Common Factors of Algebraic Expressions. Starts with review of factors and common factors for number. Uses listing factors for algebraic expressions to introduce ideas before looking at a more factorising approach. Plenary looks at working backwards from factors to expressions using Venn diagrams. All worked examples and question slides have answers included.
Recurring and Terminating Decimals

Recurring and Terminating Decimals

(0)
9-1 GCSE lesson. Starter: Converting from terminating decimals into fractions. Definitions of terminating, recurring and non-repeating decimals. How to know if a fraction is a terminating or non-terminating decimal [non-calculator] using prime factors. How to convert from a recurring decimal to a fraction using algebra. All ideas have worked examples. Differentiated slide of questions. All answers included.
Introducing and Simplifying Surds

Introducing and Simplifying Surds

(0)
Starter looks at factorising numbers using square numbers as one of the factors. Rational and Irrational numbers are explained and defined. Surds are then defined and explained in the context of square roots. Simplifying a surd is demonstrated and full simplification is explained using root 48. Question slides on each skill included. All answers provided.
Recognising Graphs
jchowelljchowell

Recognising Graphs

(0)
Examines 4 types of graphs: Linear, Quadratic, Cubic and Reciprocal. Defines properties of each and similarities (intercept). Multiple Choice questions looking at matching names and then equations to graphs.
Recurrence Relations
jchowelljchowell

Recurrence Relations

(0)
Examining the language and use of recurrence relationships. Looks at linear then geometric sequences. Worked examples, questions and match-up activities follow. Then extends to include relations with more then one operation or more than one term leading to Fibonnaci-style sequences and Square Numbers. All answers included.
Using the nth term - Linear Sequences
jchowelljchowell

Using the nth term - Linear Sequences

(0)
Starter asks pupils to describe number patterns from pictures. Then examining the properties of Linear Sequences from term-to-term rules, pictures, straight line graphs. Examples of how the general rule is used: finding terms, finding positions of terms, seeing if a number belongs in a sequence, finding common terms in two sequences. Worked examples and question slides on each topic. All answers included.
Geometric Sequences
jchowelljchowell

Geometric Sequences

(0)
Lesson looks at the differences between arithmetic and geometric sequences through the them to term rule. Explains using a term to term rule to find the next terms. The General Rule is then explored. How to find terms from the General Rule is explained. All ideas also have question slides and all answers are included.
Vector Proof
jchowelljchowell

Vector Proof

(0)
Starter looks at adding vectors. Demonstrates how to find the magnitude of a vector using Pythagoras. Explanation of proving vectors are parallel and then if three points are on a straight line (collinear). Worked examples and questions on all skills. All answers included on ppt.

Finding Recurrence Relationships

(0)
9-1 GCSE lesson exploring how to describe sequences using recurrence relationships. 2 starters: the first looking at general rules of common sequences, the second using worded questions to explore term-to-term and general rules. Worked examples explaining how recursive descriptions follow from term to term rules. Questions. Plenary MC quiz looking at arithmetic and geometric sequences.
