Year 10 and 10A Measurement and surds: the whole chapter on one page
Surds and rationalising the denominator, length, Pythagoras in 3D, area, measurement error, and surface area and volume of prisms, cylinders, pyramids, cones and spheres. A worked example for each topic, ready to print on A4 for revision or to put on the board.
View and download (PDF)Ideas for using them in class
Questions 1 to 4 of each topic test are the basics. Put one or two on the board to start the lesson.
Set a 5-question auto-marked test at the end of a lesson. Students see their mark straight away, and you see who needs another go when they tell you their score.
Print the practice sheet with the answers on the last page so students can self-mark, or share a Teacher Zone link and it marks itself.
The full 20-question test runs from the basics to harder problems. A week before the real test, it shows students where their gaps are.
The printable exam builder mixes topics with marks and a suggested time, for end-of-term and end-of-year revision.
The last section of each full test (questions 17 to 20) has multi-step and problem-solving questions for students who finish early.
