Using the context of carpark lines, students are required to apply their knowledge of angles on parallel lines to calculate unknown angles and identify a non-parallel line from a selection of lines.
Students prepare a 2 to 3 minute speech to inform, persuade, or entertain. A list of topics suitable for Year 7/8 students is provided. Assessment guides A and B are suitable for this task.
Students calculate the size of marked angles using their knowledge of angle properties: the angle between a tangent and a radius, the sum of angles in a triangle and the sum of angles in a quadrilateral.
Students prepare a 2 to 3 minute speech, to inform, persuade, or entertain. Topics suitable for primary students are provided. Assessment guides B and C are suitable for this task.
Students use their knowledge of the angle between a tangent and radius property and the sum of the angles in a quadrilateral to work out unknown angles in a diagram and explain their workings.
Task: use information and observation skills to identify whether pictures of fish are either bony fish or sharks. Assessment focus: classification, interpreting a Venn diagram.
Students use the angle between a tangent and a radius property and the base angles in an isosceles triangle property to find an unknown angle and to explain why line segments are of equal size.
Task: Select the most suitable thermometer to use for different purposes and answer two questions about scale. Assessment focus: making measurements decisions.
