Course details
Course highlights
- Trace prerequisites
- Check fractions, decimals, percentages, negative numbers and basic operations.
- Classify errors
- Separate conceptual, procedural, symbolic, interpretation and calculation problems.
- Short repair and retest
- Target one gap and use a variation to confirm transfer.
- From number to symbol
- Use tables, graphs and words to explain variables and expressions.
- Equality and equations
- Understand balance, inverse operations and verification rather than memorised transposition.
- Multiple representations
- Translate among contexts, equations, coordinates and graphs.
- Decompose diagrams
- Break composite figures into known parts and mark lengths, angles and relationships.
- Properties and reasons
- Explain conditions for congruence, similarity, Pythagoras and angle relationships.
- Measurement checks
- Use units, estimation and scale to test length, area and volume results.
- Words to relationships
- Identify quantities, units, constraints and the target before forming an expression or equation.
- Communicate working
- Keep decisive reasoning and intermediate results so errors can be traced.
- Reuse errors
- Record the cause and future checkpoint, then redo a changed version.
Course content
