Simplifying Surds

(0)
CHANGELOG 22/09/2021 - Corrected the second exercise Covers a few cases eg -Root 8 = 2 root 2 -2Root8 = 4Root2 -Simpifying with fractions and canceling a common term. A not huge. A starter. A little activity on what is a surd. A good amount of example/problem pairs. Two question sets. Some exam questions and five quick questions at the end. Included worksheet is merely a copy of what’s on the PowerPoint.
Equivalent Fractions

Equivalent Fractions

(0)
Talks about equivalency before moving onto simplifying Example problem pairs, exercises for both. The PDF here is just a print out of the questions from the PowerPoint
Changing the Subject [No factorisation]
richardtockrichardtock

Changing the Subject [No factorisation]

(0)
Loads of stuff here. (But no rearranging that requires factorisation) Example problem pairs. At least 5 different activities. A discussion about what it means for something to be the subject of an equation. An activity just asking pupils if the first step is correct (I think this is quite important). Some mini whiteboard work. A stardard exercise. An activity where they have to rearrange scientific formulas (is SMSC still a thing?)
Surd Addition

Surd Addition

(0)
A really quick example problem pair and activity. Not a whole lesson. Just wanted to be more explicit about teaching addition of surds, rather than having it as an after thought when I multiplied them.
Tables of values
richardtockrichardtock

Tables of values

(0)
Really quick PowerPoint with two activities. I wrote this to introduce tables of values separately from straight line graphs, as I found some students got really muddled when jumping too quickly into this topic.
ChristMATHS 2021

ChristMATHS 2021

(0)
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
Differentiating Functions iGCSE

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.
Rounding to significant figures

Rounding to significant figures

(1)
CHANGELOG : Massively updated 23/09/2021 to clean up a lot of stuff and add a section on identifying how many significant figures are in a number. I also collated the activities into a worksheet. 20/9/22 : Changed the worked examples to avoid duplicate digits. Full lesson. Starts with a pattern spot (you could use mini whiteboards), moves on to some increasingly difficult problems, then a lovely pixel puzzle.
Ordering Directed / Negative Numbers
richardtockrichardtock

Ordering Directed / Negative Numbers

(0)
Simple PowerPoint. Starter Example/Problem Pair Some whiteboard work Two exercises (one probably needs printing, the worksheet is included in this pack) and a plenary Veers into decimals, but not too heavily. Enough to push, but also little enough to ignore if you’re not quite there yet.
Multiplying and dividing negative / directed numbers
richardtockrichardtock

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.
Mean from a frequency table

Mean from a frequency table

(0)
Ungrouped. Starter Example problem pair Two sets of questions, one thinking about symmetry in the data Plenary Does not include using the average to find missing values in the table.
Reading and plotting coordinates
richardtockrichardtock

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.
