Basics of Factorisation
Students start with simple factorisation techniques such as finding common factors and using the distributive property. They progress to factorising quadratics and higher-degree polynomials. By Year 5, they use advanced factorisation methods, such as splitting the middle term and using special identities, to simplify expressions and solve algebraic equations.
Factorising Quadratic Equations
Initially, students learn to factorise simple quadratic equations using methods like finding factors of the constant term that add up to the coefficient of the middle term. They progress to completing the square and using the quadratic formula. By Year 5, students confidently factorise and solve a wide range of quadratic equations, understanding their applications in projectile motion and other practical problems.
Applications of Factorisation
Initially, students use factorisation to simplify algebraic expressions and solve quadratic equations. They advance to applying factorisation in optimising polynomial functions and solving higher-degree equations. By Year 5, students use factorisation in more complex contexts, such as circuit design, optimisation problems, and in breaking down large computational problems in computer science.
