Engaging Ideas
Here is a little bit of a crib sheet with lots of useful ideas.
I've been reading 101 Classroom Games, written from a PE perspective and been looking at how to use it in a maths context.
The problem being the context in which answers are given etc. Well worth a read but here is a selection of some of the ideas it has inspired and a crib sheet to keep them in mind and begin using them.
Transformations (with a focus on Translation)
A few resources I created a few years ago. They adapt the standard unit resources.
Volume and Surface Area Relay
Relay for volume and surface area.
Students apply the formulae provided on the exam paper to the full range of 3D shapes. They also have an opportunity to consider surface area.
Hexagons; promote discussion, learning links
These hexagons promote the discussion over length, area and volume for B to A* candidates.
The idea comes from a English observation mentioned on the website linked and has been put into a mathematical context.
Place like dominos explaining the decision for the tiles placement in its given location thus revealing the deeper understanding of the student.
Area - Carpeting and Wallpaper Problem
Carpet and wallpaper a house with given information.
School Canteen
Students run a school canteen.
1. They select 2 recipes to produce in their canteen.
2. They survey the class for demand for each dish using a tally chart.
3. They calculate the quantities required for each it recipe item in grams.
4. They round and convert into whole kg units to then cst each item.
5. They calculate profit by calculating total revenue and total cost.
