Section outline
-
The mathematical meaning of the following as each word is the buliding block for the next.
Straight line, Number line, integers, x and y axis, independent variable, dependent variable, coordinates, negative gradient, positive gradient, point of origin, function of x as f(x), when f(x) =0 then y=C (Constant), y intercept, right angled triangle, hypotenuse, similar triangles, ratio, equivalent fractions, unit rate, enlargement, proportion, HCF to simplify fractions, parallel lines, linear, equation.
Must know: Use of protractor, ruler, Timestable, Basic Facts, sum of interior angles of a triangle, fraction of a number as fraction times a number.
Learning intentions for next 5 weeks:
STEP BY STEP on graph paper, pencil, super neat. Highlight each line once you have passed the test.
WEEK 6.
- . Drawing the number line accurately as the foundation for further learning on graph paper
- Using the number line to recall (<) less than, (>) greater than
- Using the number line to understand integers
- 4 application of integers
- Using the number lines to understand x axis ( independent variable) and y axis ( dependent variable)
- Using the x and y axis to understand angles, parallel lines, gradient, coordinates
WEEK 7
- Drawing when x =0 it becomes the y axis, when y=0 it becomes the x axis
- Using x = 0, y= 0 as the point of origin
- Relationship when x=0 and gradient
- Gradient as hypotenuse of right angled triangle
WEEK 8
- Using right angled triangles of common hypotenuse (gradient) to form similar triangles
- applying equivalent fractions to calculate unknown side
- Creating a rule for similar triangles
- Using similar triangles for enlargement and ratio
- Using similar triangles to understand unit rate, height /base ( rise/run =m)
- Using unit rate as m to calculate a change in x to figure out y
- Figuring out what the hypotenuse (Gradient) represents in a graph and its applications.
WEEK 9 .
- Using table method for x and y
- table method to calculate y
- create a general rule (equation)
WEEK 10 Extention:
1. In y=mx+c. When f(x) =0 then y=C. When f(x) = 1 in Run, as in Rise /Run, then Rise =m
2. Use right angle triangle for pythagoras rule.
3. Trig functions, for a given angle the ratio of the lengths of sides are fixed so rules can be applied.
4. Transition from linear to quadratic function.
5. Planet Earth: Use x, y axis as equator and Prime Meridian, lats and longs, time difference, GPS, seasons, location, bearings, protractor, cardinal directions, compass directions.
6. The Scientific Method: y=mx+c.
Success Criteria: Explore : What I need to know to solve problems in context - I can go to the next step of my learning from the previous week when I can successfully show my previous learning steps with reasoning.
Focus: Now that I have my maths and stats knowledge from each week: I can create strategies to solve maths and stast problems in context in a meaningful way I can understand.
Plan and do: I can ask questions, plan and solve problems with each week's learning across the curriculum applying my maths and stats knowledge.
Activities:
- Introduction and class management and lesson management system
- whole class teaching; ref slides.
- test on lesson 10 mins. Not successful? ask a friend. Do test again. Not clear? Arrange Google meet with me.
- Mathsbuddy check to support learning not as HW to be completed.
- Learing intentions list: Where am I? Highlight ones you have passed. Check next slides for tasks.
- Sit on tables that have common tasks on slides.
Home learning:
Complete class work, copy claaswork to exercise book and any mathsbuddy /EP task linked to classwork
