Ordering Numbers 1
Posted on December 4, 2007 by clairepowis
Putting numbers in order is something that students often find incredibly difficult. I have found that using cards activities, where students can physically move the numbers around to see which order ‘looks right’ really helps. A lesson plan and a set of deciamsl to order is attached - to make it more challenging, you can ask them to order some ascending and some descending!!

Comparing decimals, fractions & percentages? Heres a card activity containing several sets (numbered in corner of cards) where students have to put them in order - either ascending or descending. Some easier sets and some more challenging ones!

Trigonometric Identities
Posted on September 24, 2007 by clairepowis
And here’s something to keep Y13 occupied. This activity is useful in developing students’ confidence in tackling proofs of trigonometric identities. It does need a bit of preparation - cutting up each set and putting them in envelopes so that students can sort them into the correct order - but has always proved a worthwhile activity.
