Year 10 Term 3 Week 1 to 5

Week 1 - Measurement - length & area

Monday the 23rd of July - Algebra test was given back.

Go over your algebra test and find at least 3 problems that you tried to do, but got wrong. Find out what you did wrong. Create a sub page on your website "Term 3 Weeks 1 to 5" and write at least 3 sentences reflecting on your algebra solving test result. Then write 10 sentences about what you already know about measurement.

Tuesday the 24th July - PPMCC area & perimeter investigation

Work in groups of 2 to 5
Create a poster together. You will cut out polygons and stick them on the poster.
The heading will be: All these polygons have the same area of X square units.
You will choose a whole number (X) with at least 4 factors. This will be the area of all the polygons.
You will draw rectangles, parallelograms, triangles and trapeziums with the chosen area.
You will write a conclusion explaining what you learning by completing the poster together.

PPMCC

Problem: What is the relationship between the areas of rectangles, parallelograms, triangles and trapeziums?

Plan: We will choose a whole number with at least four factors and draw polygons with this number of units. Parallelograms will be created by slanting the rectangles. Triangles will be created by using rectangles or parallelograms. Trapeziums will be created by using two triangles.

Measure: We will measure the perimeter of all the polygons. We will double check the areas are all the same.

Calculate: We will show the calculations of the area on our poster.

Conclusion: We will reflect on our learning and write the formula for area for rectangles, parallelograms, triangles and trapeziums.

Week 2 - Circles, Volume & surface area

Understanding the formula for the area of a circle becomes easy when you see this animation.

Surface Area Formulas

Cuboid Investigation.

5 boxes numbered 1 to 5. The sides with the largest area are labelled side A, then next largest sides are labelled Side B and the sides with the smallest surface area are labelled Side C. To ensure everyone is measuring the same length, width & height: The length is the longest side, width the next longest side and the height is the shortest side. Of course you could label them differently, but we want to compare our measurements.

The rest of week 3:

- Complete your project - ready to present to the class on Monday the 13th of August

- Work through the measurement chapters 9, 10 and 11 in your LWB.

- Work through the transum activities you have not yet completed.

Thinking about what formulas mean:

Week 4 - Learning workbooks & Maths Week

Monday & Tuesday

Project Presentations & refinements.

This tick sheet was used to mark the projects. Students were able to increase their grade by fixing their errors and adding additional calculations to get to level 6.

Rest of the week: Consolidation time:

Complete as much of the measurement chapters in your learning workbook as you can.
Lots of mini tests were added to the MEASUREMENT FOLDER.
Complete as many of the Transum activities as you can.
Use Education Perfect or Khan academy to consolidate your learning.
Set yourself goals, and work towards them.

Week 5 - Study Time

Due to conferences, and Friday's cycle, there are only 3 math class times this week. This has resulted in changes to the Measurement assessment timing.
