N1/L2.4

Evaluate expressions and make substitutions in given formulae in words and symbols to produce results (a) Understand that words and symbols in expressions and formulae represent variable quantities (numbers), not things (i.e. 2a + 2b cannot be explained as 2 apples and 2 bananas) (b) Understand that the contents of brackets must be worked out first (c) Understand that, when there is no operator between a number and a variable, or two variables, multiplication is implied, e.g. 2a = 2 x a; ab = a x b; 2ab = 2 x a x b (d) Understand that, when there is no operator between a number and a bracket, multiplication is implied, e.g. 2 (a + b) = 2 x (a + b)

Level: L2

A set of two posters for the classroom – also useful as handouts.
Formulae (L2)
I asked a group of my learners to come up with a short and snappy set of rules for using formulae. One of the group wrote the rules in the form of a poster, from which I developed this poster.
Covers general rules for using formulae such as order of operations (BIDMAS). Plus a separate page specifically for using a formula to find the area of a circle.

St George's Day area of shapes L1-L2
