Reading and plotting coordinates

(0)
Starter Some example problem pairs Some whiteboard work and an exercise on plotting coordinates and making shapes. Then an exercise on translating coordinates (ie 1 right , 3 up from (8,7)) and an exercise on reading x and y values from coordinates. Then a plenary. About 2 lessons worth.

It’s CHRISTTTTTMMMAAAAATHSSSS All you need to run a full lesson with a mathematical cristmaths quiz. Designed to be accessible to all. Starts with a bit of Shakin’ Stevens asking students to tally various things he sings and notice bits of the really creepy video : - ) Goes onto a bit of converting time, some Suduku stuff, some Chris moyles Maths quizes and a bit of spot the mathematician. Have fun and have a wonderful Christmas Richard
Multiplying and dividing negative / directed numbers

Multiplying and dividing negative / directed numbers

(0)
Powerpoint covers everything. There’s a starter, some pattern spotting, an exercises for both multiplying and dividing (but no mixed exercise) and a plenary. Maybe there’s not enough drill practice here. But you can use mathsbot for that. Enough for two lessons I think. We don’t spend enough time on negatives.
Place Value

Vary and Twist: Simplifying Ratio

Vary and Twist: Simplifying Ratio

(1)
An attempt at some variation theory This one was hard. I spent ages rearranging questions and looking at what should be added. Specifically, I had a massive dilemma when it came to introducing fractions. I was trying to point out the ways in which simplifying fractions and simplifying ratio were similar, but I’m not sure that I haven’t just led students down the wrong path thinking they’re equivalent. For instance 5 : 6 is 5/11 and 6/11, not 5/6. Hmmmm. The variations I used for section A. An example where you can use a prime divisor The opposite way around. What happens to our answer. Order is important! Half one side. 8 : 5 becomes 4 : 5 One that’s already as simple as possible. Time for some questioning? How do you know you can’t simplify it? It’s not just reducing the numbers down. Here you have to multiply up. Deals with what simple is. I have changed this from the picture to make only one number vary from the previous question. Needs a non prime divisor. This isn’t really a variation, though. It has nothing really to do with the previous questions! Again, double one side Double both. Our answer does not double! Adding a third part of the ratio. Changes the answer significantly. Doubling two parts here. Our parts don’t double in our answer! If you amend this and it works better, please let me know.
Multiplying Decimals

Multiplying Decimals

(0)
Simple PowerPoint Multiplying decimals both from scratch and using previous facts. Ie 43 x 56 = 2408, what is 4.3 x 5.6? Includes example problem pairs and two exercises. Everything you need to teach this topic.
Column addition and subtraction

Column addition and subtraction

(0)
Lots and lots of stuff on Column addition and subtraction along with talk about efficient calculations like shifts, using the correct language talk about association and commutativity. Some example problem pairs, loads of exercises with answers and some plenaries. Enough for 2/3 lessons here.
Further Ratio Problems

Further Ratio Problems

(1)
A lot of different example problem pairs linked to ratio skills. Linked to some Dr Frost key skills and with some exercises.

Differentiating Functions iGCSE

(0)
Covers the basics of differentiation. Designed for iGCSE but I will probably use this with my AS classes too. *A warm up *An interactive geogebra widget *An example problem pair *Some whiteboard work *An exercise *Another example problem pair covering things like 1/x and root x *Another exercise with some more difficult examples *A plenary with 5 quick questions.
Vectors in column notation

Vectors in column notation

(0)
Very simple introduction to writing vectors in column notation, along with adding and multiplying them. Three example problem pairs, three matching exercises of questions, some mini whiteboard work and a plenary.
Circumference of circles
richardtockrichardtock

Circumference of circles

(1)
An example problem pair A nice set of questions where students have to decide why two problems have been paired (a bit variation theory-esque) Lots of questions, including a big set of questions on moving between radius/diameter and circumference. Some whiteboard work A problem solving question I came up with A learning check NOTE : TES is annoying for keeping stuff up to date. I often change my powerPoints to add stuff and make them better, or simply to correct errors in maths and presentation. The latest version will always be found here.
