Students learn the features of inverse operations and practice solving one and two-step equations to find unknown values (pronumerals). This resource is a lesson scaffold which ideally accompanies the editable PPT lesson, which follows an 'I do, We do, You do' structure in which students will: - identify inverse operations - collectively learn and practice the solve process for one and two-step equations - complete a short 'check for understanding' when solving equations - consolidate their ski
This activity board supplements the 'Area of Composite Shapes PPT'.In this simple game, students utilise dice and the board to battle for the available area. This board allows for many iterations of dice games, its open ended! In my class I like to suggest to students that what they roll on the 2 dice, is the dimension of their array which they can claim from the opponent, without overlap. In the latter stages they can split their arrays either horizontally or vertically and place them. If t
Students use efficient mental and written strategies to carry out the four operations with integers (Year 8, Mathematics, Australian Curriculum). This Differentiated Task is a ready to deploy activity on the order of operations (BEDMAS). It is differentiated to provide appropriate challenges for a range of students. Students will investigate, apply and create according to the bronze, silver or gold challenge that they select. This is an editable resource, and can be adjusted to suit your n

Students practice plotting and identifying paired coordinates. *Links with Cartesian Plane, Plotting Paired Coordinates PPT (Details below)Students learn the features of the Cartesian plane and practice plotting paired coordinates. This resource is an editable PPT in which students will: - recognise the difference between grid references and paired coordinates - record the features of the cartesian plane - complete a short 'check for understanding' when plotting paired coordinates - consolidate
Students calculate the area of composite shapes (Year 9, Mathematics, Australian Curriculum). This problem-solving task allows students to showcase their capacity to calculate the area of composite shapes. Students are required to find the area using two different methods. Within the class reflection, all successful methods should be celebrated with the lead into the question 'are some strategies more efficient than others?'. This is an editable resource, and can be adjusted to suit your nee
Students calculate the area of composite shapes (Year 9, Mathematics, Australian Curriculum). This differentiated task allows students to showcase their capacity to calculate the area of composite shapes. Students with a strong grasp of the concept can take on the gold extension, which requires them to create and find the area of their own composite shape. This is an editable resource, and can be adjusted to suit your needs.
This is a simple consolidation task linking a visual method for calculating gradient (rise over run), with the abstract method which utilised two paired coordinates on the line. Students can self-check their abstract method, by comparing it with their visual method. Explicit teaching of each method would need to occur before this task is presented. This task is used as a folio task, prior to an assessment, to be used to draw on if student is unavailable to complete the provided assessment. This
