@suffolkmaths @mathsjem Bar Modelling! I've had some success with lower ability groups this way - particularly with contextual worded questions. A bit more difficult with negative terms, but still possible. A good video on BBC Bitesize on this https://t.co/AX06Qkw5X5
@Vanessa_Maths We try to relate things like this to "fact families" which we cover numerically early on.
So if, x - y = 2 then x = 2 + y and x = y + 2 and x - 2 = y (get them to replace x & y with values such as 5 & 3 to rehearse the facts, then put the variables back in).
Sounds a good read!
@asthmauk So I'm still confused as to whether I qualify for Grp 6. I have asthma controlled by inhaled steroid & receive flu jab. Have been treated in A&E on numerous occasions for attacks, including receiving nebulisation, but never sent to a ward. Have I been "admitted" to hospital?
