  1. Situation Choose the activity(ies) that best suit your students’ learning needs Use this short activity to get students to think about the information in a question . Ideal for the beginning of the lesson Warm-up Four questions that encourage students to think about alternative questions using the same information What are the possibilities? Thinking harder Four questions that require students to use higher order thinking skills in order to consider question alternatives Some more to try Opportunities to use the same approach in different contexts Reflection Students can assess what they still need to learn and the grade they are working at. Content covered Test yourself cards Print so students can learn the key points. Take home or work in pairs.

  2. Situation – Content covered Reflection

  3. Situation – Warm-up Answers The diagram shows a prism. The prism is 9 cm long. 1. What is the length of EF? 2. What is the length of CD? 3.What is the size of ACD? 4. Make up a simple question about this situation.

  4. Situation – What are the possibilities? The diagram shows a prism. The prism is 9 cm long. 1. What can you work out from this information? 2. How long is AC? (4 marks) 3.Make up a mark scheme for this question. 4. Write your own exam question about this situation. Question 3 Three kinds of marks can be given: B for something being correct, irrespective of method M for carrying out a correct step A for a correct answer Question 4 Use the prompts button below to help students who are unfamiliar with this style of question Use the thinking prompts button to help students be more creative with their questions. Thinking prompts Prompts Answers

  5. Situation – Thinking harder Answers The diagram shows a prism. The prism is 9 cm long. 1. Work out the volume of the prism. 2. Work out the surface area of the prism. 3. A bug travels from C to D to A. How far does it travel? 4. Can you think of a real life situation where you would come across a shape like this?

  6. Situation – Some more to try Answers 1. This is a cylinder, radius 6 cm, height 5 cm. Work out the surface area of the cylinder. Use π = 3.14. 2. The larger radius is 8 cm. Calculate the area of the shaded part. Use π = 3.14. 3. All of the angles are multiples of 45. Calculate the area of this shape.

  7. Situation – Reflection Click below the button to reveal the grades I can D D C C C • Self assess • Find or write some evidence to support your assessment • Write down your next steps • You may wish to use the Test Yourself cards.

  8. These cards have the things you may need to learn in order to do length, area and volume questions. Copy down the ones YOU need or ask your teacher for a printout. Situation – Test yourself cards

  9. Situation – Answers for Warm-up • 1. 5 cm • 2. 9 cm • 3. 90 • Possible simple questions include: • What is the length of AE? [answer: 9 cm] • What is the length of FD? [answer: 12 cm] • What size is EFD? [answer: 90°]

  10. Situation – Answers for What are the possibilities? 1. Possible things that could be worked out include: Length of BF Length of DE Length of AD Area of triangle ABC Q2. and Q3. AC² = AB² + BC² = 25 + 144 1 mark = 169 1 mark AC = 1 mark = 13 cm 1 mark 4. Possible exam questions include: Calculate the volume of the prism. [3 marks, grade C] Calculate the surface area of the prism. [4 marks, grade C]

  11. Situation – Answers for Thinking harder 1. 270 cm³ 2. 330 cm² 3. 24.8 cm 4. A piece of cheese; a wedge for a door; a ramp;

  12. Situation – Answers for Some more to try Click on the question to reveal the solution 1. This is a cylinder, radius 6 cm, height 5 cm. 414.48 cm² Work out the surface area of the cylinder. Use π = 3.14. 2. The larger radius is 8 cm. 100.48 cm² Calculate the area of the shaded part. Use π = 3.14. 3. All of the angles are multiples of 45. 72 cm² Calculate the area of this shape.

  13. Situation – Prompts Think of a really obvious question Think of a really easy question Think of a really boring question Think of a really short question Think of a really hard question Think of a really strange question

  14. Situation – Thinking Prompts Could I make a question with fractions in it? Is there a question that would involve the number 90? Is there a question that would mean adding some of the numbers? Is there a question that would mean dividing? Could I make a question with an answer less than 1? Could I make a question worth 2 marks? Could I make a question worth 5 marks? Is there a question that would involve multiplication?
