      1.7 Differentiation
    • Differentiation

    • This Teacher Pack will cover the following syllabus content:

      • Understand the gradient of a curve at a point as the limit of the gradients of a suitable sequence of chords
      • Use the chain rule to differentiate composite functions and apply differentiation to gradients, tangents and normals
      • Apply the chain rule to problems involving connected rates of change

      This unit of work is just one of several approaches you could take when teaching this topic, and you should aim to adapt the resources to match the ability level of your learners as well as your learner context.
