The document provides examples of factorizing linear and quadratic expressions and equations. It begins with examples of factorizing simple expressions like 5x^2 + 10x. Then it provides a series of equations to factorize with a timer counting down from 8 minutes. The answers factorize the equations by grouping like terms within parentheses. It emphasizes that factorizing means writing the expression or equation as a product of binomials and provides some rules for determining the signs within the binomials based on the signs of the terms.
The document contains 10 math word problems asking to find the nth term of sequences and what a specific term would be. Each problem provides clues like "n^2" or "Q" and the first few terms of the sequence to determine the pattern.
The document outlines a lesson on solving functional mathematics problems at level 5, with key words including solve, generate, difference, common, describe, and consider. It states that all students will calculate price differences between online and in-shop options, most will calculate group discounts, and some will find the full cost of a trip. Finally, it instructs students to peer assess another group's poster by providing one positive feedback and one area for improvement.
The document provides instructions for classroom activities called "plenaries" which are used to summarize and assess student learning. The plenaries include having students: 1) complete learning triangles to self-assess their understanding, 2) write steps to common tasks to relate lessons to real world examples, and 3) work with partners to give peer feedback on their learning. The goal is to help students consolidate their knowledge and identify areas for improvement.
This document provides instructions for classifying and analyzing a set of 24 triangles. Students are asked to group the triangles based on similarities and differences in shape, and to identify if any are enlargements of each other. They are then instructed to calculate scale factors between enlarged triangles, find missing lengths, and use properties like Pythagorean theorem and cosine rule to determine right angles, areas, and area scale factors. The goal is for students to systematically analyze and compare the given set of triangles.

This White Paper from EBAN calls for increasing the number of women business angels in Europe to 20% by 2015. Currently, women comprise less than 5% of business angel investors across Europe. Increasing women's participation in business angel investing would benefit the sector in three key ways: 1) It would increase the total number of investors and deals funded, strengthening the asset class. 2) It would increase the diversity of deals and sectors funded. 3) The varied expertise of women investors would provide more well-rounded support to investee companies. The paper recommends research, awareness campaigns, training programs, and new financial instruments to help achieve this 20% goal.
