Inverse functions Tarsia Puzzle

(0)
An activity to consolidate inverse functions work after students have learned about them. Includes variation on similar functions so the answers are not obvious to the students.
3D co-ordinates

3D co-ordinates

(0)
Two 3D co-ordinate lessons taught to middle set year 10 students. The first build up slowly and includes a powerpoint I found that illustrates 3D co-ordinates with animations effectively. Worksheets embedded. Any feedback is appreciated! Thanks
Significant figures

Significant figures

(0)
Full lesson on significant figures. We look at why we use significant figures in real life situations (newspapers) and how we would round to 1/2/3 sf.
Intro to solving equations

Intro to solving equations

(0)
Introduction to solving equations with one and two step equations being used. Builds up slowly and can be used to clear up misconceptions. Used with a mid-ability year 10 class all taking foundation. Any feedback apprieciated! Thanks!
Read and write positive integers

Read and write positive integers

(0)
This lesson discusses the Arabic numeral system and introduces the students to place value. There is lots of opportunity for discussion on how to represent numbers before introducing a place value table that can help for numbers in any base. Continues onto placing numbers on a number line where you can explore differing intervals. Adapted using resources from WR maths and my own input.
The laws of addition and subtraction.

The laws of addition and subtraction.

(0)
This lesson looks at the commutative and associative laws of addition, different strategies of how to complete additions and subtraction efficiently (partitioning, compensating etc.) as well as fact families for addition and subtraction. Uses resources from WR maths as well as my own input.
The place value of decimals

The place value of decimals

(0)
This lesson looks at the place value of decimals, how to write and say them, and placing them on a number line. Use of WR maths resources, other resources found on line and my own input.

Intro to rearranging equations

(0)
Introduction to rearranging formulae. Two notebooks. Rearranging formulae - intro for low ability, will then be able to move to the second notebook Rearranging formulae 2 - can be used as an intro for a higher ability group.

Rounding

(0)
Full lesson that goes through rounding to 1, 2, 3 and 4 d.p. as well as when and how to use rounding effectively. Links to real life situations such as timing at the OIympics
Linking nth term rule to linear graphs
tomprotheroe92tomprotheroe92

Linking nth term rule to linear graphs

(0)
This lesson starts with a recap of the nth term rule and then links this to linear graphs. It is quite an abstract connection and would work better with higher ability groups but can work equally well with lower ability groups if provided with extra scaffolding.
Intro to Linear Graphs

Intro to Linear Graphs

(0)
Introduction to linear graphs including; How to draw axis Y = 2, X = 3 etc Graphs of y=x and y=-x for discussion Worksheets for consolidation
