A powerpoint-activity to learn and revise about vectors.
There's been a robbery! Can you help Inspector Vector solve the crime by collecting clues? This is a fun activity for groups that includes:
- adding and subtracting 2D and 3D vectors
- finding the magnitude of 2D and 3D vectors
- adding and subtracting vectors like a and b
- some practice with surds for magnitude of vectors
- visualizing vectors in 3D
- using some logic to solve the crime
Solutions to each clue included in the Power Point notes.
Takes a very good class about 1 hour 30 minutes.
A great way to introduce formulas, with a fun activity to estimate how fast your reaction time is.
The Power Point introduces the idea of reaction time then shows pupils a simple experiment they can do, which leads to a formula for converting centimetres on a ruler to reaction time in seconds.
The key to exam technique in mathematics is to solve each problem multiple times, using independent methods. You also want an independent check.
Mathematicians hate to get things wrong!
This presentation and activities will help your students from making mistakes.
What do you do when there's not enough information to solve a problem - or too much?
This presentation and activities aims to teach pupils how to handle more difficult problems when it's not clear what to do.
There are multiple examples from algebra, geometry and trigonometry.
A short Powerpoint on common confusions such as 6 and 0, s and 5, ( and c and so on.
Pupils are made aware of the pitfalls, and given tips for how to avoid them.
An introduction to Game Theory that I gave to a class of smart 16 year olds.
Introduces the idea of a game, and gives some examples of simple two player games and up to zero sum games.
Some fun examples of games you can play in class!
A series of 17 one-page handouts each with explanations, examples then questions.
Covers Numbers, Negatives, Fractions, Percentages, Algebra.
For lower ability classes I print these out and they stick them in their jotters.
The topics are:
Types of Number, Factors, Powers, Prime Factors, Negatives adding and subtracting, Negatives multiplying and dividing, Fractions of an amount, Equivalent fractions, Mixed numbers, Multiplying and Dividing fractions, Adding and subtracting fractions, Finding percentages, Fractions decimals percentages, Substitution, Multiplying Brackets, Simplifying, Solving Equations)
A series of four worksheets about domain, range and composite functions. There is many lessons work here with lots of practice.
The four parts are:
- Domain and Range
- Composite Functions
- Further Functions (combining domain, range, composite)
- Extension (proofs about linear functions)
All provided with full solutions
A series of four worksheets to give some background algebra, do plenty of examples finding a limit, then for advanced pupils go on to find a general formula for a linear sequence.
If you follow this through you will be able to instantly work out the value of the 50th term of u_n+1 = 0.4 u_n +3 (for example).
The four worksheets are:
- Indices (practice on this)
- Algebra (rearranging formula)
- Sequences (standard questions on finding limits, and graphing the results)
- Investigation (putting it all together to get a general formula)
All provided with full solutions.
