RAG Task on Solving Linear Equations. Includes unknowns on both or one side of an equation, including fractions and also negative solutions. A task which engages pupils and ensures progress can be made through a topic. Works well with KS3 and KS4

This is a series of lessons (2-4) which covers solving equations with an unknown on both sides. The lesson allows pupils to master the skill of solving equations with an unknown on both sides but then allows the more able to tackle questions with brackets and worded problems. There is also a large section of the lesson designated for algebra with shape problems dealing with various different scenarios. All tasks are differentiated to at least 3 levels. There are plenty of opportunities to problem solve and also a lot of reasoning tasks which are suitable for the new curriculum. All questions have solutions so this makes it easier to self mark and address misconceptions. Used with both KS3 and KS4 and pupils were really engaged.

This is a series of lessons on finding the area of a rectangle. It starts off very basic by finding them by counting squares. However it moves onto finding the area and then onto compound shapes to allow children to develop their knowledge. It then has a series of functional problems and also problem solving questions to make such a basic topic extremely challenging for all pupils. The are some more vague concepts to really challenge the pupils. All tasks are differentiated, 2-4 levels for each task to make it accessible to all pupils but also to stretch the more able. All tasks have full solutions to it is easy to peer and self assess during the lesson. The lesson includes reasoning and problem solving tasks which ensure that this is suitable for the 9-1 GCSE curriculum. I have used this lesson and pupils were engaged yet challenged.

A series of lessons (1-2) on rounding to this degree of accuracy. There is a chance for the pupils to master the skill in a task which gets increasingly more difficult so that all pupils are challenged. There are then many worded problems, bound problems and reasoning problems to ensure that pupils are thinking and talking about rounding. This lesson contains plenty of problem solving and reasoning tasks which will prepare all pupils for the 9-1 curriculum. It gives pupils plenty of time to master the skill but then become fluent in using and applying. All tasks are differentiated between 2 and 4 levels to gives all pupils a chance of accessing this lesson. There are solutions to every task to ensure it is easy to self assess. Used with a year 7 class who enjoyed this lesson and encouraged lots of discussion.

A series of lessons (2-3) on enlarging shapes by a positive and negative scale factor. The lesson allows pupils to practice enlarging shapes and then brings in doing it from specific coordinates. The same with negative scale factors, practice the skill and then develop from coordinates. There are also problem solving and reasoning questions to support and extend pupils learning. All tasks are differentiated to at least 3 levels to challenge all pupils but ensure they are accessible to everyone, All tasks have solutions to make it easy to mark. There are reasoning questions, problem solving questions and killer questions to make this suitable for the 9-1 curriculum. I have used this lesson and pupils were engaged and challenged.

5 different sets of 6 starters (30 starters in total) which focus on 5 different Higher Tier topics. These are used at the beginning of every lesson, with pupils working on the same 5 topics for 6 lessons running. Every starter has fluency, reasoning, problem solving and worded problems. Pupils love doing the same every lesson for 1 week and loved doing better each day. Used for many years now and always are a huge hit!!

Series of Lessons (2-3) on using and applying Negative Indices. This explores many different contexts involving decimals, ordering fractions and adding and subtracting fractions All tasks include reasoning, problem solving aswell as mastering the fluency of the topic. All tasks include full solutions and worked examples so that pupils can self and peer mark. All tasks are fully differentiated to either 2/3/4 levels.

Spelling Tests of Mathematical Words. These are perfect in order to box off literacy within mathematics and can be extended even further if you as pupils to give definitions. There are 20 weeks worth of spelling tests, all differentiated for pupils are different levels of ability. Been using these for over a year with year 7 - 10 who love a weekly spelling test and learning new word!

A series of lessons (2-4) on finding the volume and the surface area of cones, spheres and pyramids. The lesson allows pupils to practice the skills as well as developing their skills to work with compound solids. It then stretches the more able pupils to work with algebra. All tasks are differentiated either 3 or 4 levels. All tasks have solutions so pupils can self mark with some of the solutions handwritten so pupils can see a full worked solutions. This has been used with classes of varying ability and all have been able to access the lesson up to their desired ability. There are problem solving tasks, reasoning tasks ect to suit the new 9-1 curriculum. This has been taught to top set year 7 and set 3 year 10 who were fully engaged and liked the challenge of working with new formulae.

A series of lessons (2-4) based on substitution. The lesson has separate tasks for positive and negative numbers and also allows pupils to work with shape problems. The lesson then stretches pupils to deal with substituting in to mathematical forumlae. I have used formulae such as Pythagoras, Trapezium, Sine and Cosine aswell as volume of cones/spheres in order to prepare for pupils for these formulas at KS4. Quadratic Formula is also included. All tasks are differentiated either 3 or 4 levels. All tasks have solutions so pupils can self mark with some of the solutions handwritten so pupils can see a full worked solutions. This has been used with classes of varying ability and all have been able to access the lesson up to their desired ability. There are problem solving tasks, reasoning tasks ect to suit the new 9-1 curriculum. This has been taught to top set year 7 and set 3 year 10 who were fully engaged and liked the challenge of working with new formulae.

A series of lessons (2-3) on finding the roots and turning points equations. It recaps the skills required such as solving, factorising and completing the square on a quadratic and then develops these skills to find roots and turning points of an equation. There are plenty of reasoning tasks suitable for the new curriculum and this stretches the more able to understand the properties of graphs. There are also algebraic questions and links it to sketching graphs. All tasks are differentiated to 3 or 4 levels to allow the skill to be practiced and then to stretch and challenge the more able. All tasks have either worked solutions or typed solutions so that the pupils can self mark. This has been used with top set year 11, all pupils engaged and made good progress.
