YEAR 7 SCHEME OF WORK FOR MATHS

(25)
The scheme of work was created several years ago. This is the FIRST VISUAL SCHEME OF WORK(possibly of it's kind in the world) for maths that I designed. At the time I created this using Activstudio (PROMETHEAN) and also exported as a power-point. The reasoning behind this was accessibility for teaching assistants and cover teachers. This was further embedded as an International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme (MYP) document. Please feel free to edit and ameliorate it further.

MYP - Compilation of resources and links

(4)
This is a collection of resources I compiled for my MYP team. While these are not resources for lesson delivery necessarily, there are helpful links to blogs, videos, webinars, Twitter feeds, and other material to help teachers starting out in the MYP program. I simply collected these links, and I take no credit or responsibility for the content of blogs or websites included in this document.

Make a board game

I’ve done this Design Technology project a few times now and it’s always a winner - I’ve never known a class that wasn’t absorbed by this so I’m really happy to be offering it to you for free. Depending on your students, I would use this project for approx 10 to 15 hours of class time. (There is a bit of homework in the shape of resource gathering.) Please note, this resource is just a power point in student-friendly language which outlines the whole project and can be used at the start of the project in your introduction and can be on hand throughout for the students to consult. There’s no mark scheme, assessments, etc. Students work in pairs (they have the option of working individually or you can change the wording on the power point). I hope you have fun with it!

Trigonometry & Triangles; Showing How Two "Same" Things Are Not Equal

(0)
This activity uses the basic trigonometric ratio to show that it is possible for shapes to have equal measures but still have different areas. Using cell phones as an example, the students will compare two different cell phones that have the same screen size, but different aspect ratios, and prove that the same screen size does not necessarily equate to the same amount of screen area. They will find the length of the sides using all three trigonometric functions, and then calculate the area. Then they will be able to compare cell phone #1 to cell phone #2, and determine which has the greater amount of screen area, despite having the same screen size.

MYP - Language Acquisition - Criterion A (listening) - Media Bias

(2)
This is a collection of listening exercises I did with my students as part of the new MYP Language Acquisition guide. We studied the structure of a news report but also analysed bias and placement and use of images, and used that to assess strand iii, as well as increase understanding of multimodality. These resources are not perfect, as this is my first time creating listening exercises for this new guide, so please adapt them to your own circumstances or make improvements as necessary.

Archeology Application/Activity Involving Circle Theorems and Triangles

(0)
A good activity for students who have a working knowledge of GeoGebra. Your students will begin in one of three dig areas in Egypt, and then, using circle theorems and triangles, will find the distance to the other two sites. Then they will choose one of the three dig starts to start, where they will find an artefact that they will reconstruct in GeoGebra 3D for their report/submission to the contracting museum. The purpose of the activity is to use circle theorems, congruent triangles, and similar triangles to show applications of skills taught in the specified unit and how they might apply in a real world application.
