Task: Measure 100mL of water into three different pieces of equipment. Weigh the result and calculate the precision of using that piece of equipment. Assessment focus: measuring and evaluating the accuracy of equipment.
Given a rule, students complete a table and answer questions about cycling distances for a cycling fitness programme, describe the rule for the pattern, and identify an expression for the rule.
Students complete a table showing the number of matchsticks used to build a series of pentagons. They identify the number of matchsticks required for a given pentagon and state the rule as an word equation.
Students use coloured beads to make repeating pattern. They then identify the colour of specific beads in the pattern and explain how to work this out.
Students complete a table showing the number of counters used to make a series of L-shapes. They identify the number of counters needed for different situations, and describe the relationship as a rule.
Students explain how they can work out how many striped or shaded beads are needed for a number of repeated 'sets', and identify the number of striped and shaded beads for given numbers of sets.
Students complete a table showing the number of matchsticks used in a spatial pattern, identify the number of matchsticks required for a given shape, and describe the rule for the pattern.
Students use matchsticks to continue a triangular spatial pattern and write a rule to describe the number needed for each pattern. They then complete a table and a rule to show the relationship between the number of triangles and the number of matchsticks.
