Graphs

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of graphs, from simple mappings to identifying quadratic graphs.

Graphs pack one contains fifteen work cards with a wide variety of activities covering mappings, graphing mappings, plotting coordinates, straight line graphs, parallel graphs, drawing curves, using graphs to solve equations, solve simultaneous equations graphically, and graph inequalities.

Graphs pack two contains fifteen work cards with activities requiring students to find gradients of straight lines, find the equation of a straight line using the gradient and the y-intercept, identify and draw reciprocal graphs, sketch quadratics, and use graphs to solve quadratic equations.

SMILE (Secondary Mathematics Individualised Learning Experiment) was initially developed as a series of practical activities for secondary school students by practising teachers in the 1970s. It became a complete individualised scheme based around a network of activity cards and assessments.

Related resources include answers to all of the cards and test books and answers.
