Cambridge IGCSE® Core and Extended Mathematics Scheme of work

advertisement
This Scheme of work has been devised to follow a logical route through the text book. Its aim is to complete the course by the end of the second term
in the second year of study; this will then allow time for revision and exam practice. The chapters have been divided into fifteen blocks each with 14
hours of teaching time; this roughly equates to four weeks’ work depending upon individual timetables. The timings are generous to allow for some
flexibility in this area. If necessary the blocks can be interchanged to allow for local conditions, preferences, etc, however please read the notes in
the final column to ensure necessary learning takes place before attempting the work. Similarly, the order in which each chapter is completed can be
rearranged within each block if resources or timetabling dictates, but once again some care needs to be taken to ensure necessary prior learning has
taken place.
(The alternating grey shading has no significance and is merely there to help distinguish between blocks.)
Note: There are a few blocks in this table where the investigation/ICT activity listed for a block does not match with the topics covered within the
block. This is because the relevant investigations or activities have been covered in an equally relevant block earlier or later in the scheme.
In these cases, the investigation or ICT activity acts as revision for previously learned topics.
