Length, area and volume scale factors (including worksheets)

(0)
An interactive geogebra applet that aids the modeling (with full worked solutions) of using length area and volume scale factors to find missing values. Please see the video for how the use the teaching aid. I have also included two differentiated worksheets (one for lengths and areas and one for length, area and volumes) and a scafolding sheet to support students. These are also previewed in the video. The geogebra applet is attached but if you don’t have it installed then the web link is also attached so you can use the applet in any web browser.

Modelling Algebraic fractions

(0)
An interactive geogebra applet that generates GCSE style algebraic fractions questions from simplifying with multiplication/division/addition/subtraction to solving equations with algebraic fractions. Use the slider to differentiate the difficulty of questions and click on the working to reveal the next line of the scaffolded solution. Please see the video to see how to use. The geogebra applet is attached but if you don’t have it installed then the web link is also attached so you can use the applet in any web browser.

Placing probabilities and fractions on a probability scale (Interactive)

(0)
Scroll through the examples and press 'start' to start the event scrolling up and down the probability scale. Invite students to the board to click the screen to stop the even in the correct position. Revel the fraction using the buttons and split the probability scale into fractions using the 'fraction' button to see if the even it accurately placed. Includes student activity worksheet.

Solving by iteration (trial and improvement). Fully dynamic and interactive.

(0)
An interactive PowerPoint to model solving quadratic and cubic equations using trial and improvement. Use the +/- buttons on each row to change the input and click on the x number shown to watch it dynamically substitute. Click on the blank parts of the table to reveal the substituted parts evaluated. Using the +/- button on the next row, modify the input and substitute again by clicking on the number shown and repeat the process. If more table is needed, click clear.

Adding and subtracting fractions visually

(1)
An interactive and dynamic PowerPoint that models how to add and subtract fractions using pictures. Use the 'fraction' buttons to show the visual representation of each fraction and click on each sector to shade it in. Click on 'add/subtract' once to reveal the common denominator shape and again to visually see the fractions adding together.

Balancing Equations with subtraction (interactive balancing)

(0)
I've always struggles to show students how subtraction works as a balance as it can't be visulaised, until now!Keep the balance of the scales by adding or subtracting content from both sides. Do this by clicking on the 1's or x's at the top to add on and on each side of the balance to remove them. Pop the balloons by adding weights to both sides (sound effects included!)
Lowest common multiple and highest common factor  using prime factors (interactive PowerPoint)
ward309ward309

Lowest common multiple and highest common factor using prime factors (interactive PowerPoint)

(0)
Starts by finding LCMs and HCFs by listing and extends to using prime factors and Venn diagrams to calculate LCMs and HCFs. Scroll through the PowerPoint using the navigation buttons. Reveal the covered factor trees by clicking on the covers and click the end branches of each tree to select the prime factors. Once all end (prime) numbers have been found use the show/hide button to reveal the Venn diagram. Click on the prime factors again to place them into the Venn diagram. Click on the LCM or HCF to reveal the answers.
