Learning Resources
Currently needs calculator topics are not loaded - we haven't reinstated the facility to set and assess these questions differently (whilst keeping rest of questions NC)
New topics available Sept 24 are shown below the blue bar, soon to be retired topics are shown below the orange bar (by end Dec 24 these will be transferable).

Types of resources
There are 3 types of learning resource specific to each layer (deliberately small "bite") of learning on a topic
- teach-learn - example questions for the teacher to use to teach
- practise-learn - a worksheet of practice questions (with fold over / cut off /separate answers) for the learner to practise what they have just learned
- timely practice - is only available via the timely practice app. The app sophisticatedly and responsively schedules practice questions to increase the recall-ability of learning by the learner.
There are 2 types of planning resources putting each topic in context for the teacher
- topic sample: which shows a typical question for each layer within the topic (found below the heading on each topic page)
- topic theme overview: which gives a brief description of every layer with the topic theme (found by clicking the topic theme heading in the blue bar above)
Not all topics are traditionally named e.g.
rounding is split between correctTOnearest (within integer) and correctDP and estimateSIGfig (both within FDPR)
substitute is called valueAlgebra - named because questions asks learners to “find/write down the value of” a variable - the word substitute isn’t mentioned
writeAlgebra is writing expressions and formulae
