Use the bar model and function machine to solve one step equations.

Designed to introduce one step equations, using the representation of bar models, focusing on addition and subtraction only.

Expose students to different ways one can appear on the surface.

A resource created to emphasise the link between bar models and the grid method when expanding brackets.

Ratio questions - varying in what information is given (whole, part, or difference). Structured with bar models to support students’ understanding of what information they have and what they are required to find.

Designed as a precursor task before introducing trigonometric graphs.

Vector addition with drawing alongside, to see the resultant vector

Using similar triangles to introduce trigonometry.

Use multiple representations to solve one step equations.

Using the area models to solve ‘factory style’ exam questions - using machine hours.

Using similar shapes to introduce trig ratios.
