Time

(21)
PP of time measurements & how to convert between minutes/hours. Lots of different activities/worksheets for student of different levels to have a go at. I usually do the Wallace é Gromit warm up as a group activity (dependant on ability, I may do this as a whole class) I would not say it is a warm up, as takes longer than you might think! My current lessons are 1 hour, so I sometime do this over 2 lessons. I also do a 'create a knockout football tournament' I tell the students that there are 10 team, each game is 30min, and there are 3 pitches.

Sequences

(7)
Generate terms of a sequence from either a position-to-term rule Recognise and apply sequences of triangular, square and cube numbers, simple arithmetic progressions, Fibonacci type sequences, quadratic sequences, and simple geometric progressions (rn where n is an integer, and r is a rational number > 0) Deduce expressions to calculate the nth term of linear sequences Full lesson PowerPoint and workbook to accompany, I have used quite a few of AQA's helpful resources to help me put this lesson together. Includes sound clips, various activities, discussion points and teacher exposition. There are also a couple of extension tasks

I have been completely inspired by Jo Morgan and Craig Barton https://craigbarton.podia.com/courses/topics-in-depth-1-angles-in-parallel-lines/301836-topics-in-depth-angles-in-parallel-lines/ I have created the PP off the back of completing the course and in line with a Y8 top set class. I have used various resources from various places SSA but all come together to make a pretty nice lesson

Formula

PP Formula, explanation. Includes reverse calculations for checking. Practical activity needs weighing scales, tape measure, various boxes/tins. Helps to have done area and volume first My students really enjoy doing working out their own BMI. I try to emphasise their own weights and heights (so they can relate other weights and measurements to them), get them to complete conversions, but make a point of BMI not being aimed at under 21 - also that rugby players are classed as Obese on the scale

Celebrity Salaries

(1)
Card sort of some celebrities - can easily be adapted to make more relevant. The class will work in pairs/small groups to order the celebrities salaries, also to make an educated guess as to what their salary may be. Once theirs has been done the celebrities will be brought up onto the board (un-ordered) nominated learners will read out the actual salary - demonstrating place value. Another student can then be picked to work out the celebrities age.

The Penny Mile

(1)
Mainly aimed at Functional Skills as a revision task. Coverage includes: To be able to convert between metric units To be able to use simple formula to convert between metric and imperial units To be able to work out the volume of an object To be able to calculate the weight of an object To be able to work out the mean average of a set of data To be able to solve problems involving time Exam style task based on recent events in my life, so very Functional. This could also be adapted to allow the students to do their own "How many in a minute" part, but just need the pennies. This task took most of my students a lesson. Please feel free to let me know if there is anything that could be improved.
