New Grade 6 Material: Test 1

(0)
This is a Test I will use to check whether my students have met the standards required for topics which have been labelled as grade 6 in the new GCSE. Clearly I have listed which topics are tested and students are given this list in advance so that they can revise the highlighted topics. More tests will follow as I prepare them and then bundles will become available.
Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral

Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral

(0)
The power point presentation shows students why angles in a triangle add up to 180. Prior knowledge is required here of the angles on a straight line and/or Alternate angles. The power point has a series of worked examples for the angles in a triangle before looking at the angles in a quadrilateral. Following the angles in a quadrilateral there are a series of cards that can be printed to go with a collection of questions at the board. (a bit like bingo) Students answer each question and should find a number that can be crossed out. The winner being the one who completes their card correctly!
