This resource is for high achieving KS4 students. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter and worked solutions to the questions on the worksheet. The new specifications suggest that students will increasingly be tested on finding the area under a real-life graph and the gradient of a real-life graph. The types of graph could be horizontal, a straight line with a gradient positive or negative, a series of straight lines or a curve. Each of these possibilities is considered. The lesson starts by looking at the relationship between distance-time, velocity-time and acceleration-time graphs. However, there are examples and many questions whose context is in the fields of biology, chemistry and physics: osmosis, electrolysis, diodes etc. .

This lesson is for KS4 students and teaches them to tackle problems involving rate of flow of a liquid, the volume of a liquid and time. The topic follows the model used to teach density and speed. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and worksheet. The lesson presentation consists of a starter, examples and worked solutions to all the questions on the worksheet. There are three exercises in the lesson with examples before each. The first exercise requires students to find the rate of flow, the second volume or time and the third exercise has more difficult contextual questions.

This resource looks at geometric proof for KS3 students. The resource consists of a lesson presentation, a worksheet and a handout showing the conditions for congruent triangles. The lesson presentation includes a starter, examples and worked solutions to the questions on the differentiated worksheet. Questions include the angles in regular polygons, the angles between diagonals, using parallel lines and a line of symmetry.

This lesson is for KS4 students working towards the Foundation paper. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation show students how to interpret and use timetables. It also includes a starter and worked solutions to the questions on the worksheet.

This resource is for advanced KS4 students. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter and worked solutions to all the questions on the worksheet. The lesson starts with a revision of the surface area for spheres, cylinders and cones. Students are then extended to learn how to find the surface area of shapes such as hemispheres, frustums and composite 3D shapes.

This resource is for KS4 students. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes worked solutions to the questions on the worksheet. Students learn to tackle functional problems involving dividing one area by another. The contexts include finding the number and cost of tiles and the amount and cost of paint.

The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter and worked solutions to the questions on the worksheet. The starter involves proving that a root lies between two values of x. There is an optional exercise if students require more practice at this. Iteration is then explained and an example given. The worksheet asks students to do three iterations to find solutions to specified degrees of accuracy. Extension involves two iterations that don’t work and identifying the re-arranged equations that are equivalent to the equation to solve.

This resource is for KS4 students. It follows on from ‘Listing Outcomes’. It consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter, examples and worked solutions to all questions on the worksheet. This lesson teaches KS4 students to list possible outcomes and to learn when to add probabilities and when to multiply the number of probabilities. The first questions on the worksheet are traditional spinner and dice type questions. The later questions are real-life situations.

This resource is for KS4 students. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter and worked solutions to all the questions on the worksheet. The starter is revision of completing two-way tables. Students then learn to find probabilities from two-way tables. They then learn how to construct two-way tables from text and then to find probabilities.

These two lessons are for capable KS3 students. Start with ‘1. Algebraic Proof Introduction’ and the accompanying handouts and then continue with ‘2. Algebraic Proof Multiples’ and its worksheet. Students are introduced to the idea of letting any number be n and to finding expressions for consecutive numbers, odd and even numbers. Students then find expressions for sums and products and finally learn how to prove that such an expression is a multiple of a specified number.

The resource is for advanced KS4 students. It consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation includes a starter, the teaching part and worked solutions to all the questions on the worksheet. The starter is revision of completing the square. Students are then taught how to use the completed square to find the coordinates of the turning point for a quadratic whose coefficient of x squared is 1. There are 8 examples for the students to do themselves. There is an extension of 6 questions involving quadratics where the coefficient of the x squared is either more than 1 or negative.

The resource is for KS4 students preparing for the Higher paper. The resource assumes that students know how to add and subtract surds, how to multiply and divide surds and how to simplify surds. A worksheet is included and the lesson presentation includes a starter, examples and worked solutions. The new specification GCSE Higher papers feature many questions where two or more topics are combined. This lesson prepares students for questions that combine knowledge of surds with the properties of shapes and using formulae. In the first half of the lesson, students learn how to find and simplify expressions involving surds for the perimeter and area of shapes. In the second half of the lesson, students learn how to find a missing length in surd form from the area or perimeter of the shape and other dimensions. In both cases the questions are structured to start with easier examples and to end with harder examples.

The lesson is aimed at KS4 students who are wondering what relevance different types of graph have. The learning objective is for students to see that these graphs do have real-life meaning and that this helps them differentiate between the different types of graph.

The lesson is aimed at low ability KS4 students, who struggle to construct or match a graph showing the depth of water against time as water flows at a steady rate into vessels of different shapes. The resource consists of a lesson presentation and a worksheet. The lesson presentation goes through the topic thoroughly. The worksheet gives a summary of the teaching, so that pupils don’t have to copy it down, and three questions. The lesson presentation also has a starter and worked solutions to the questions.

This resource is for KS4 students taking the Higher paper. There is a lesson presentation that includes starters, examples and worked solutions. There are two matching exercises and the worksheet. There are two main parts to the lesson. The first is finding acceleration from the gradient. The starter revises the relationship between acceleration, speed and time and there is a matching exercise. The second part is finding the distance traveled from the area under the graph. There is a matching exercise for learning this. How to find both acceleration and distance from a curved graph is covered. There is a finally a differentiated worksheet.
