Mathematics Department Year 10H II Scheme of Work Main text book – Edexcel Mathematics A Linear Higher (Pearson) with its supporting worksheets for homework. The text book is on loan to pupils. Pupils must own a full Maths set and scientific calculator which should be brought to each lesson. This equipment can be provided for pupils if they require it for a charge. The 10H II class is the second of two set ability groups. Pupils are set after the summer test of Year 9 or after the September test (new pupils) Topics are taught from the GCSE Higher Tier syllabus with teachers differentiating (upwards & downwards) to support the stronger/weaker pupils. Differentiation is supported by extension work in text books and work sheets. Number, Algebra, Geometry, Statistics, are the main assessment areas and these are visited once or twice a term . Within these areas there will be problem solving, functional skills and tasks requiring mental methods and the use of IT. Homework is given twice a week. Autumn Term Number First half term: Prime Factors. Indices. Fractions and Problem – Solving Second half term: Decimal work. Estimation and Rounding Off Algebra First half term: Expressions, Expanding brackets and Factorising. Sequences. Second half term: Solving equations (linear, with brackets) Geometry First half term: Angles in polygons (proof) . Bearings. Areas & Volumes. Elevations & Plans Second half term: Extending Pythagoras’ Theorem Statistics First half term: Averages (mean, median, mode, range) Second half term: Statistical Diagrams. Interquartile Range Spring Term There is a Year 10 Spring Mathematics Higher Tier GCSE-type test topics currently covered. A Foundation Tier test is available for pupils whose ability levels would be suited to this. Adjustments to class settings are possible after a review of test results. Number First half term: Percentages (increase/decrease, compound interest). Converting measures/units. Second half term: Decimal work. (upper/lower bounds) Geometry First half term: Constructions & Loci, Circle Geometry Second half term: Transformations, Scale drawings, Maps Statistics First half term: Collecting & recording data Second half term: Probability (Mutually Exclusive events), Space Diagrams Summer Term There is a Year10 Summer Mathematics Higher Tier GCSE-type test. A Foundation Tier test is available for pupils whose ability levels would be suited to this. There are further adjustments to class settings for preparation for Year 11. End of Term Case Studies - Functional skills tasks using number, algebra, geometry and statistics Number First half term: Ratio, Direct & Inverse proportion Second half term: Consolidation and Revision Algebra First half term: Inequalities, Formulae, Equations of straight lines, Parallel & Perpendicular lines, Real life graphs, Regions Second half term: Consolidation and Revision Geometry First half term: Congruence, Similarity and Symmetry Second half term: Transformations (Single & Combined) Statistics First half term: Pie charts, Bar charts, Probability (Relative Frequency) Second half term: Consolidation and Revision
