Lesson on Maths skills needed for the new Combined Science GCSE (9-1) with a focus on Biology content, although many of the skills are needed across all three Sciences.
The lesson is intended to be a circus activity with all of the topics around the room (information sheet and exam question sheet for each that I printed back to back) for students to move around between and then mark at the end of the lesson. It could easily be done as a teacher lead lesson as well though and even slotted into other lessons as needed.
The maths skills included are:
- Comparing Data
- Analysing Graphs
- Drawing Tables
- Calculating the Mean
- Mode & Median
- Calculating Percentages
- Calculating Percentage Changes
- Percentile Charts
- Converting Units
- Standard Form
- Ratios & Fractions
- Variation
- Magnification Equation
- Cardiac Output Equation
- BMI Equation
- Estimating Population Size Equation
There is an information sheet and exam question sheet for each, as well as answers to all the questions.
