Autumn Term

Spring Term

Summer Term

Support (from Y9 teaching programme)
• Generate terms of a sequence using term-to-term and position-to-term definitions of the sequence, on paper and using ICT
• Generate sequences from practical contexts and write an expression to describe the n th term of an arithmetic sequence
• Find the inverse of a linear function
• Given values for m and c , find the gradient of lines given by equations of the form y = mx + c

Core (from Y9 objectives for able pupils)
• Represent problems and synthesise information in algebraic, geometric or graphical form; move from one form to another to gain a different perspective on the problem.
• Find the next term and the nth term of quadratic sequences and functions and explore their properties • Investigate the gradients of parallel lines and lines perpendicular to these lines
• Plot the graph of the inverse of a linear function; know simple properties of quadratic functions
