Plans and Elevations
This is a Teachers’ TV programme from the series KS3/4 Maths. In this episode, head of mathematics Coni Archer tests out some new resources to investigate plans and elevations of 3D shapes on her colleagues before teaching her Year Eight class. The lesson includes 3D perspective, plan views and isometric diagrams. The lesson promotes discussion, problem –solving strategies and team work.
Coni wanted to get some useful feedback from the mathematics department at Sander Draper School in Havering, to see how they would feel when faced with certain tasks, and also to see what support they needed. Following this she uses the resources in the classroom, together with a more hands-off teaching style, to see how effectively her students would use the new materials to explore and investigate. Coni reports back to her colleagues her findings from the lesson.
