Fill in the blanks…

Inspired by Jonathan Hall’s (@StudyMaths) excellent session on Completion Tables at Maths Conf31, I have been reminding myself of all the excellent fill in the blanks type resources available and have updated my original post on this. Now available as a page, Fill in the blanks can be found as part of the Problems & Activities Collection. Several new activities have been added to the original.

Trigonometry (Area) – Fill In The Blanks, Andy Lutwyche

There is also a good deal of evidence that the use of worked examples can
be helpful in introducing new ideas (Booth et al., 2017; Sweller et al., 2019).
Particularly effective are ‘completion problems’ where students are given
partial solutions and required to complete them
. These can help students to
focus on the examples but also manage the difficulty level while retaining
authentic tasks
