MyWorks quizzes are short individual learning tasks that can be set as homework or as a lesson task. There are three different types of quiz in KS3 Maths. Mini quizzes Mini quizzes are short, versatile quizzes suitable for most abilities. Each quiz is worth 25 marks and takes around 10 minutes to complete. They cover small, bite-sized topics equivalent to around one lesson’s work, and contain recap pages to remind students of the key points if they are struggling. Each quiz matches a small section from one of the Boardworks KS3 Maths PowerPoint presentations, but can also be used independently of other products. Super quizzes Super quizzes are longer tests that are ideal for revision or assessment at the end of a larger unit of work. They are worth 50 marks and do not contain recap pages. Applied quizzes Applied quizzes are designed to stretch more able students by placing their mathematical knowledge in a ‘real-life’ setting. Each applied quiz covers a distinct topic and asks a variety of questions that are related to this topic. The idea behind these quizzes is that by promoting a contextualized approach to maths, the students will be better prepared for situations where they may be asked to use maths outside of the classroom. These quizzes will also provide a good starting point to get the students used to the problem-solving approach that they will be expected to use in the new GCSE qualification. The quizzes are out of 30 marks and include recap pages to explain where students may have gone wrong.
