Mathematics Mastery

Summary

This geometry unit focuses fully on developing mastery of this important area of mathematics. At the start of the unit, students consider similar shapes and the impact of similarity on the ratio of side lengths. With carefully chosen illustrations to illuminate the learning, the unit introduces the trigonometric ratios and develops these into the more formal methods of use when finding missing sides or angles in right-angled triangles. The trigonometric ratios for special triangles are devised and applied, and the angles of elevation and depression met and used in context to solve trigonometry problems and reasoning challenges.

What people say...

I really like your resources that are engaging and challenging for students at every level. Your lesson plans are in detail, showing very clear differentiation. I will highly recommend you to any teachers who are looking for dynamic and relevant SOW.

Songul Adams. Head of Computing, Everest Community Academy

The lessons are a fantastic starting point for non-specialists teaching maths for the first time. The material is covered, with conceptually sound explanations and probing questions embedded in those explanations.
