These originated on TES however I have made some changes to the format and delivery style.

I have used a picture from google images here but when I use this in lessons I take a photo of the class first (in height order - tallest on the right - the lesson before if I can) and use that. The pupils find it really easy then to relate the concepts and key words to themselves and they get a real understanding of what lower quartile/ upper quartile and interquatile range means before we even start looking at any data. The Presidents task comes from Don Stewards Blog (Median) which is a fantastic bank of resources if you don't already use it. The powerpoint is one I have picked up along the way - I don't know where it originates from.

This is my first key note presentation (also copied as a powerpoint) and my first step towards remote control of my board through my ipad. To get around a lack of Apple TV I have installed AirServer on my laptop (you can also use Reflection but I found this to be really clunky on my machine). With my laptop hard wired to the projector I can now run my lesson from my ipad anywhere in the room by mirroring my ipad through the wifi. The big plus is I can flick between video clips/ internet/ apps/ presentation at will. Be anywhere in the room but still push the lesson on when needed and with Keynote my board shows the presentation while my ipad shows all the notes I have put with each slide, this means I can prep my essential questions/ key points not to miss etc and see the little reminders you miss when your normally in full flow. Home testing is really positive. School wifi offers its own challenges.
When I have taught this topic in the past pupils follow well in class but retention over time is often an issue. I am trying this from a different angle (no pun intended), spending a lot more time on each theorem and establishing an ability to investigate and then an understanding of the proof. The power point is freely available from the TES website, I have included it here to make it easy to find as it is referred to in the smart board file.
Using steps to scaffold learning. The step The reason why The hint Space for reflection This is a first draft at using this particular structure (including a reason and a hint). The lesson is an adaptation of Don Steward's work.
While researching for this I found this resource which is freely available on the TES website, I have included it here as I think it's structure is brilliant.
