1 The KING S Medium Term Plan [Mathematics Department] Y8 Learning Cycle 4 Programme Module Challenging question Subject Challenging Question Lines of Enquiry Number (fractions, percentages, decimals) and Data (introduction to probability and statistics). What is the changing nature of conflict and co-operation in our world? What are the conflicts of a mathematician when co-operating between x and y values? In the present learning cycle, students will evaluate how to apply their knowledge to algebra (LC2) to solve one and two-step equations, inequalities and calculate the nth term of a sequence. Besides, pupils will learn how to plot and analyse straight-line graphs, studying in depth some of their properties such as the gradient. Week 1: How do we calculate the rule to continue linear sequences? Pupils will recall how to continue sequences and how to calculate the general rule to calculate any term in the sequence using their knowledge of algebra. Week 2: What do we mean by the balancing effect? Students will be taught how to solve one and two-step equations using the balancing method as well as different algebraic techniques. Week 3: What is the role of inequalities? First, pupils will have to understand the meaning of the inequality symbols in order to solve one and two-step inequalities. Then, applying what they learned in Week 2, inequalities will be solved and students will be able to represent their answers graphically. Week 4: How important is the relationship between x and y variables when solving problems? Students will recall how to plot straight line graphs and will analyse how to calculate any point in the line. Week 5: Why do we need such algebraic manipulation and graphical representation? This week, pupils will apply their knowledge of graphs to calculate gradients and mid points of segments. Week 6-7: Assessment followed by gap teaching from assessment analysis.

During home learning pupils may be asked to use the following sites where they complete quick quizzes, CIMT tasks, GCSE style questions and more open ended tasks. 1) Levelled quizzes 2) Lots of maths online help and activities as well as mini tests 3) This link is useful for additional revision and practice on all areas of maths. For semester 4 pupils should click on the Geometry areas for practice questions. 4) this link will provide good revision and extended learning opportunities on the semester 5 project 5) in depth links to maths and sport

16 Extended learning will also be in lesson plans where links are made to the history theme of historical changes. During Tuesday and Thursday enrichment pupils will have the chance to strengthen skills and develop them further. We will look at UKMT challenges, levelled tasks, GCSE questions and build a Kings Maths Team ready to enter competitions in year 8.
