Activity 1 Students should be given a copy of the grid and the the cut out transformed graphs from the answer grid. They then need to stick these on the grid. Activity 2 Transformations of Graphs 1 and 2 contain some functions and some blank grids. Set some transformations and then ask the students to sketch the transformed functions.

Solving Linear Equations using the Bar Method

(59)
This is a series of worksheets introducing the use the bar method to solve equations. I have updated these and have added sheets dealing with equations such as 3x - 9 = 10. I have also added student support sheets to help weaker students with starting to draw the diagrams. I think this is a great way to get students to move on to using the balancing method to solve equations.

Straight Line Graphs

(9)
This is a series of 4 or 5 lessons. For lessons two and three students need access to a computer and graph plotting software (I use Autograph). I have found this series of lessons very effective and now use these materials in both KS4 and KS3 and I am still surprised at how well students manage to identify the equations of the lines in lesson 4.

These two worksheets start with some examples, then has a guided “fill in the gap section”, but then it moves on to questions where students are asked to complete the square unaided and finally there are some questions where students are asked to apply completing the square to curve sketching.

Using y = mx + c

(1)
This is a write on worksheet that practices the use of y= mx + x in sketching straight lines, finding the equation of a line with a given gradient passing through a point and finding the equation of lines passing through two points.
