              Translating Shapes using Vectors

              Students learn about translating shapes using vectors. As learning progresses they move from performing translations on a grid to describing translations using vector notation.The start of the lesson is used to recap describing a rotation or reflection that will map an object onto an image. The plenary is based around a jigsaw puzzle where students give their answers in the form of translation vectors.
              Differentiated Learning Objectives
              • All students should be able to translate an object on a grid using vector notation.
              • Most students should be able to perform and describe translations on a grid using vector notation.
              • Some students should be able to perform and describe a translation on Cartesian axes using a translation vector.

              Literacy in Mathematics – Creating Problem Solvers

              October 28, 2019

              Last year my school had a OFSTED trial inspection. Whilst the maths team recieved favourable feedback the inspectors noted a need for a focus on whole school literacy. Because of this I was asked to demonstrate how we develop student’s literacy in mathematics. Literacy in Mathematics By developing student’s literacy in mathematics we aim to […]

              Angles in Polygons

              October 16, 2019

              There are two key learning points when solving problems with angles in polygons.  The first is to understand why all the exterior angles of a polygon have a sum of 360°.  The second is to understand the interior and exterior angles appear on the same straight line. Students can be told these two facts and […]
