Here are a few to help you get your revision started.\u003Cbr>Explain: Write a sentence or mathematical statement to show how you got to your answer or researched\u003Cbr>your conclusion Show: All workings needed to get to a given answer or complete a diagram to show given information. Draw: Produce an accurate drawing (unless a sketch is being drawn) . Sketch: Produce a drawing that does not have to be drawn to scale or a graph that is drawn without working out each coordinate. Find: Some workings will be needed to get to the final answer. Expand: Remove brackets. Expand and simplify:\u003Cbr>Remove brackets and then collect like terms. Describe: Write a sentence that gives the features of the situation. Complete: Fill in missing values. Justify: Show all workingsand/or give a written explanation. Solve: Find the solution of an equation or inequality. Solve algebraically: Find the solution of an equation or inequality; algebraic manipulation must be shown. Simply: Make something smaller/shorter. Simplify fully: Make something smaller/shorter (the answer must be in simplest form) . Factorise: Insert brackets by taking out a common factor. Factorise fully: Insert brackets by taking out the highest common factor. Express: Re-write in another form, some workings may be needed. Work out: Some workings will be needed to get to the answer. Change: Convert from one unit to another; either using known metric unit Give a reason: Must be clear and accurate. If the reasons are geometrical |\n\nMathematics Higher GCSE  \n\n|  |  |  | conversion or the use of a conversion graph. | make sure you a) provide a reason for each stage of your working and b) use correct geometric terminology. |\n| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |\n| Write down: No workings are needed. | Write: no working is needed for a 1 mark question (this may not bethe case for questions worth more than one mark) . | Calculate: A calculator and some workings will be needed. | Prove: More formal than‘show’, all steps must be present. In the case of a geometrical proof, reasons must be given. | Prove algebraically: Use algebraic notation throughout the proof. |\n\nVideos and markschemes:  \nHannah Kettle  \nA qualified Maths teacher who works closely with exam boards and schools around GCSE revision.
