Year 10 linear equations and inequalities starters: the 10 questions
How to use these Year 10 linear equations and inequalities starters
First, give yourself about 30 seconds for each question. Then write the answer down before you check it. If an answer is wrong, look at the linear equations and inequalities lesson again. After that, move on to the linear equations and inequalities worksheet for longer questions.
Finally, repeat these starters a few days later, because regular practice makes the facts automatic. Moreover, all the pages of this chapter work together, so you can move between them at any time. For example, many pupils read the lesson on Monday, practise on Wednesday and test themselves on Friday.
