I created this worksheet as I could not find a suitable resource to use with my students. Designed to be used with high ability students who have not been taught (or don’t remember) being taught Enlargements. The first 8 questions practice the standard integer Enlargements. The next 4 questions are fractional Englargements. Then 4 questions on negative Enlargements. Then 4 questions on fractional negative Enlargements. The last 3 questions are a mix. Printed on 1 sheet of A4 with a boarder so could be cut down to stick into a classwork book. Personally I would use the first of the 4 questions as an example.

This flexible task can be completed by getting students to research Macroeconomics indicators or by using the data and graphs provided.
Lesson plan suggestion:
Lesson 1
Introduce the research task as homework or for a remote lesson or a lesson in a computer suite.
If students are struggling to find the data on the ONS website the links from the source section can be provide from the worksheet 2.6 Trends in Macroeconomics indicators - Data. Students should be encouraged to make there own line graphs.
Lesson 2
Students share their graphs with the class, has everyone used the same data? Are there different ways to measure these indicators?
Students who have not complete the task from the homework/lesson 1 or have used the wrong data should be provided with the graphs from the worksheet 2.6 Trends in Macroeconomics indicators - worksheet.
Student can then answer the questions. The questions have been provided with lines and without lines and in word and PDF format.
Lesson 3/homework
Students should now answer the same questions for other Economies using data from the IMF https://www.imf.org/en/Countries
Students could all pick different countries or be assigned different countries then share with other members of the class.
