Introducing Angles on a Straight Line

Using angles on a straight line have a sum of 180° students learn how to calculate missing angles and set up and solve simple equations this property.  More able students apply this to recognise and calculate vertically opposite angles.The start of the lesson recaps perpendicular angles.  In the main part students learn how to calculate missing angles on a straight line using the sum of 180°. The plenary challenges students to create a straight line out of three known angles.
Differentiated Learning Objectives
  • All students should be able to know the sum of the angles on a straight line is 180°.
  • Most students should be able to calculate vertically opposite angles and angles on a straight line.
  • Some students should be able to prove that vertically opposite angles are equal.

Calculating the Volume of a Pyramid

March 10, 2019

When calculating the volume of a pyramid we can substitute the values of the length, width and perpendicular height into the formula V = 1/3 lwh.  In my experience this is often provided for the students with little explanation as to why a volume of a pyramid is exactly one third the volume of a […]

Solving 3D Problems using Trigonometry

March 4, 2019

When teaching solving 3D problems using trigonometry we begin the lesson with a recap of Pythagoras’ Theorem and the three trigonometric ratios.  We do this by matching the ratio and equations to the respective right-angled triangle.   Students are encouraged to work in pairs and to show the diagrams as part of the working out on […]

Rounding to a significant figure

January 29, 2019

When I teach rounding to a significant figure, I ask the class to discuss in pairs or small groups a definition for the word significant.  It is a word that all the students have heard before but not all are able to define. After 2 or 3 minutes of conversation I ask the students to […]
