• Levelled Learning Objectives

Levelled Learning ObjectivesChallenge Objectives (levelled)

Today I will learn to expand and simplify algebraic expressions.GCSE Grade D to A*

Key Words• Expand • Simplify• Brackets • Coefficient• Bracket

2(3 + m) and 3a(2b – 5a) are Grade Dm(4 +p) + p(3 + m) are Grade C(a + 3)(a – 4) and (a – 3)² are Grade C +(3a – 2)(2a + 4) and (4a – 5)² are Grade BCHALLENGE OBJECTIVE – expand and simplify surds √3(2 - √3) is Grade A*

• Post-it note challenge

Answer the hardest question that you can.Once done and put your answer on the post-it note (on the sticky side)Put your name on the front. When you are ready go and stick it on the wall with the appropriate grade.

• Use of Success Criteria

Checking progress

• Use of Success CriteriaSuccess criteria to multiply out a double bracket, such as (c + 2) (c – 4)

1. Draw a multiplication grid2. Put the terms from the 1st bracket into the top of the multiplication grid3. Put the terms from the 2nd bracket into the vertical columns of the grid4. Multiply the terms together – be careful with the negatives5. Write the multiplied terms out under the multiplication grid6. Simplify where you can (remember you can’t add c² terms and c terms)
