While the class has been visiting the city of
Manford, 4 monstrous alien spaceships have
appeared in the sky and drifted overhead before
slowly landing!
The class has been separated into groups to visit
various places of interest, so the first aim is to try
to join up and escape on the school bus.
However, the landing of the ships has caused a
lot of panic. Everyone is trying to leave the city,
clogging the streets with traffic.

We need to locate the spaceships!
Task 1
You have just been given a set of clues from the latest broadcast
from the local radio station but the broadcast was played so quickly
that there are gaps in the information.
Look at the gaps, what do you think most of the missing information
is likely to be?
We are going to listen to the broadcast again. It is your job to fill in
the gaps.
Warning, the broadcast goes very fast. You will need to use
abbreviations for:Miles,
Kilometres,
North, South, East and West.
You could share out the clues so each person is listening for 1 piece
of information.

How did you find the spaceships?
What is the scale of the map?
1cm = 400m
or 1 = 40000
Where did the Space Ships land?
G8
L10
O6
There were three places where the fourth Space Ship could have
landed:
D12
T8
and
J4
How could we rule out D12?
Because only 1 ship landed South of the Observatory and we
knew that there was a ship at G8?
How could we rule out T8?
Because T8 is due North of the St Andrew’s Cathedral, and this
doesn’t fit with one of the clues?

What new Information do we have?
The Aliens and the green fog are travelling
up to ½ a mile from the space ships.
Remember 5 miles = 8 km
0.5 miles = ? km
0.5 miles = 0.8 km
0.8 km = ?m
0.8 km = 800m
Adding this information to our Map
The Aliens and the green fog are travelling
up to 800m from each space ship.
We want to mark the area around each ship
that the aliens and green fog could be
found in, what shape will this area be?
A circle with a radius
of 800 metres!
So in real life there is a circular area with a
radius of 800m around each ship in which
green fog and Aliens could be.
The map has a scale of 1cm = 400m
So what radius should we use on the map?
A circle with a radius
of 2cm!
On your map mark
the danger zones.
The city is in chaos. Everyone
is trying to leave and roads are
congested. The green fog
could start spreading. The
Aliens have been emerging
from their ships and we have
marked the danger zones on
our maps. It is essential for the
class to meet up quickly in a
safe place, avoiding the aliens.
The News Flash advised
people to stay calm and walk,
not run, away from the Aliens.
If everyone walks at the

Introducing sequences
In maths, we call a list of numbers in order a sequence.
Each number in a sequence is called a term.
4, 8, 12, 16, 20, 24, 28, 32, ...
1st term
6th term
Describing a sequence.
3,
5,
7,
9,
_
_
We can describe the rule in words….
This sequence goes up by 2 each time.
To find the next term in the sequence + 2
This is called the a term to term rule.
You can use it to find the next term in a sequence.
Call these the position numbers or n for short.

Each term in the sequence has a position.
This sequence goes up by 2 each time. So it is like
the 2 times table.
The two times table goes like this :2
4
3
6
5
8
7
10
9
11
We can see that our sequence is one bigger
then the 2 times table.
3,
5,
7,
9,
_
_
Because we can see that our sequence is one
bigger then the 2 times table we can use this
to find the position to term rule.
2 x position number + 1
Because the
sequence goes
up by 2
Because the
sequence is one
bigger than the 2
times table.

Position number x 2 + 1
We can use this rule to find
any term in the sequence.
2n + 1
Remember n was short
for position number.
To find the 6th position in the sequence 6 x 2 + 1 = 14
To find the 100th position in the sequence 100 x 2 + 1 = 201

Can you find the
position to term rule
for this sequence.
3n + 2
Because the sequence is 2 more
than the 3 times table.
Because the sequence
goes up by 3
To find the 6th position in the sequence 6 x 3 + 2 = 20
To find the 100th position in the sequence 100 x 3 + 2 = 302

Can you find the

for this sequence.
5n - 2
Because the sequence is 2 less than
the 5 times table.
Because the sequence
goes up by 5
To find the 6th position in the sequence 6 x 5 - 2 = 28
To find the 100th position in the sequence 100 x 5 - 2 = 498

Completing your Portfolio
In this skills unit, all of you will have used some of the skills listed below. Some of you will have used
all of them.
Skills
Read and plot coordinates,
Use grid references
Estimate and calculate using measures in everyday situations,
Convert one metric unit to another, (e.g. cm, metres, km)
Use and interpret maps and scale drawings,
Solve problems involving ratio and direct proportion,
Solve problems involving loci,
Find and describe the nth term of a sequence,
Formulate and solve linear equations,
Discuss and interpret graphs of real life situations,
Use the mean, median, mode and range.
In your portfolio describe how you used these.
For example
‘I used the mean average to calculate the average walking speed of the group.
Then I estimated how long it would take the group to reach the Muster Point.’
