• TLF-IDA003276

This planning resource for Year 8 is for the topic of Shapes and objects. Students begin to explore geometric properties and proof. They identify the properties of quadrilaterals based on transformation, angles, parallel sides, side lengths, diagonals and symmetry.

• TLF-IDA003659

In this lesson, students calculate the average expected value of losses on a roulette wheel over time, and use these values to analyse the cost of gambling on these games. They also study the flaws inherent in betting systems to determine whether these systems are weighted in the favour of game operators making a profit. ...
