This is an absolutely quality resource which I'm really chuffed with. It totally ticks loads of boxes for what is expected in our lessons - group work, discussion, mastery, self choice, differentiated, etc.
It uses elements of Connect, Arrange, Classify, Reduce and Act it Out of the Magenta Principles.
Here are 21 statements about Pythagoras which are either TRUE, FALSE or SOMETIMES TRUE .
They are appropriate for any students who have learnt how to do long side, then short side questions and mixed combination two-step questions.
The activity is designed to be a MATHS MASTERY activity where they consolidate their learning and prove that they understand and can explain their understanding.
The statements are graded in difficulty using "SkiRouteCodes" from Green, Blue, Red and Black. Students can choose which grade question to answer themselves or you could suggest their choices. The grades are slightly subjective (I wrote 21 out questions and then tried to sort them into the four grades). I have written a set of suggested solutions. Do let me know if I have made any errors with these.
You will note that I set work out to print onto label stickers. This saves the students time and helps keep the exercise books tidier. There is a header label, then the questions on labels and a set of solutions. I've also included the SkiRoute choices labels. There is also another copy of the Questions not on stickers to make it easier for you to adapt them.
I have also added in a copy of the questions ready for printing onto card and cutting up. You would then give the whole set out to a small group who would use the TRUEFALSEHEADER to catagorise all the cards.
One of the Magenta Principles is to reduce so there is an activity to reduce the pythag definition to as few words as possible.
Another one of the Magenta Principles is to "Act it Out" so you will find a task sticker for that along with a Storyboard template.
To show "Maths Mastery" students need to be able to explain what they do. The last three resources are a series of questions on sticky labels. Students can choose (self-differentiate) which questions to answer. The LO label is also there to go above the sticker. A set of the questions just as a worksheet is also included. No answers are included as it's difficult to write solutions for these. I would normally set these as the last activity of the lesson and then I would mark them after the lesson. Next lesson they could then start with responding to what improvement feedback I gave them.
The True False cards also have a PowerPoint presentation which is good to display and discuss each one in turn with the group.
