This week, we’ll explore how factors and multiples lead to more powerful number tools: Lowest Common Multiple (LCM) and Highest Common Factor (HCF). We’ll also look at index notation for repeated multiplication and standard form, which helps us write very large and very small numbers simply.

This week, we’re exploring factors, multiples, and prime numbers, three key building blocks of number theory. You’ll learn how to find them, spot patterns, and see how they’re used in real life, from packaging in factories to creating secure online passwords.

This week you will be learning about integer, negative numbers, decimal numbers place value, multiplying and dividing by 10, 100 and 1000 and rounding numbers.

This week is a celebration of everything you’ve learned this term. You’ll revise ratio, fractions, percentages, graphs, data handling, and probability through fun online activities and short practice worksheets. At the end of the week, you’ll complete a short assessment covering all of these skills.

This week, we will use sample spaces to calculate probabilities, represent events with Venn diagrams and two-way tables, and apply the product rule for counting outcomes. We will solve problems involving multiple events and combinations.

This week covers frequency tables (grouped and ungrouped), representing grouped data with charts and diagrams, and constructing scatter graphs to describe relationships. Students also draw and interpret a line of best fit to make predictions.

This week, we move beyond straight lines to explore quadratic graphs, reciprocal graphs, and compare linear with non-linear graphs.

This week, we explore gradients, intercepts, and the famous equation y=mx+c. You’ll plot graphs with positive and negative gradients and link them to sequences.

This week, we begin our journey into coordinate geometry. We will explore plotting points in all four quadrants, drawing vertical and horizontal lines, plotting graphs from equations, and finding midpoints. These are the foundations for all graph work, from straight lines to more complex functions.
