In this lesson, students play games and learn about space and location, the Cartesian plane, pattern recognition and reductive reasoning by playing games and thinking. Students create algebraic equations to describe their strategy. Follow this lesson with Graphs: formulas and variables, though both lessons can be taught ...
This lesson explores the difference between perfectly predictable events (like the roll of a die) and less certain events (such as sports). Students investigate mathematically how sports bookmakers create odds to guarantee themselves a profit and pay gamblers less for a win than they deserve. The lesson is outlined in ...
In this lesson we use the context of an ancient bazaar to investigate measurement systems. Students select a name and base number for their system of measurement, using weights made from clay or similar material. They divide their clay into possible unit fractions to generate their set of weights. They assign a fictional ...
This planning resource for Year 7 is for the topic of Proportional reasoning. Students are introduced to ratios as a method of comparing quantities. Students learn how to recognise and represent these comparisons to solve problems. The concept of dividing a quantity by a given ratio is also introduced.
This planning resource for Year 7 is for the topic of Mathematical modelling. Students use the mathematical modelling to solve representations of real-world problems.
In this lesson, students explore standardised measuring systems. They encounter the challenge of a shopkeeper who must determine how to weigh different quantities of spices most efficiently. Working in a financial context, students model this scenario using fractions, percentages and ratios, and communicate their solution ...
Examine the relationships between capacities of various containers. Look at three containers that may have different diameters, heights and shapes. Fill a container and squirt liquids between the containers to establish the proportional relationship. Work out the third 'unlinked' relationship from two known relationships. ...
This planning resource for Year 9 is for the topic of Transformation. Students explore and develop their understanding of the enlargement transformation using dynamic geometry software. They will investigate what changes and what remains the same when a shape or object is enlarged. Students will look for patterns in the ...
This planning resource for Year 8 is for the topic of Mathematical modelling. Students use mathematical modelling to solve problems involving ratios and rates in a financial context.
This comprehensive resource describes the progression of ideas that cover addition and subtraction of integers; multiplication and division of integers; the four operations with common and decimal fractions; and operation applications with percent, rate and ratio.
Ever noticed that plants are examples of Fibonacci numbers? Watch Vi Hart draw examples of flower petals and leaf growth that follow this pattern. See how plants seem to use Phi (.), the golden ratio. Find out how to make your own 'angle-a-tron' to create interesting petal designs. This is the second in a series of two.
This lesson challenges students to apply Pythagoras' Theorem to explore a practical real-world problem. Students explore technology reliant on mathematical concepts. The lesson is outlined in detail including curriculum links, vocabulary, materials needed, sample answers, discussion points and student resources such as ...
An animated tutorial about using a calculator to find an angle when given a trigonometric ratio. An interactive quiz is included.
A student resource that explores the use of mathematics in the trades. Highly interactive investigations into ratio, areas of special quadrilaterals and right-angled trigonometry.
An animated tutorial demonstrating the application of Pythagoras' theorem through some worked examples, followed by a interactive quiz.
In this laptop-friendly resource, students consolidate their understanding of trigonometry by investigating practical applications of the ratios, highlighting the process they used to find a solution.
A 2D Shapes tool that can be used to create geometric objects such as quadrilaterals, circles, triangles, lines, arcs, rays, segments and vectors on a coordinate grid. Plot and label the vertices to reveal the internal angles, side lengths, area and perimeter, then manipulate the shapes on a grid to transform their shape ...
An animated introduction to the basic trigonometric ratios.
This is an 18-page guide for teachers. This module introduces the idea of ratios and rates.
