Full lesson on Dijkstra's algorithm for finding the shortest path in a network. Fully animated powerpoint takes students slowly through the process of labelling the nodes and selecting which nodes will form part of the solution. The lesson resource is fully write-on and will only need printing (answers are included). There is another resource which covers more basic practice questions (with answers given).

Three differentiated grids for quick fire revision created to help students review the content of our first module of study in school. Ideal for preparation for end of module examinations or homeworks. Each grid contains 20 questions based on number skills, ratio, proportion, simple algebra manipulation, angle theory, perimeter. There is an easy version (1 star) and a harder version (2 star) and students can select (or be guided) to the side that they wish to attempt. All in all 120 questions…but no answers (you have to work them out yourselves!).

An entire lessons devoted to re-visiting the various equations a lower ability foundation student (or younger student) will have to tackle. This goes from one step (x + a = b) through to classic two step (ax + b = c), through brackets (a(bx+c)=d) and finally letters on both sides (ax+b=cx+d). The equations are nearly all positive integer solutions and so can be solved without a calculator. The resource can be written on and is full differentiated from 1 star (lots of support and little variation in the style) to 3 star (simply the equation). I have included another document which is a little more watered down. The powerpoint takes students through how to solve equations by inverse operations. Note there are no answers to the task

I deliver the easiest of the measures of data in one lesson. The mode, median and range all obtained from small data sets. The powerpoint is animated and shows the importance of the ordering of the data and then gives definitions. The classic “give me 3 numbers whose median is 4 and range is 5” type problems are also developed during the lesson. The resource can be printed on and is fully differentiated from one star (lots of support and small data sets) through to 3 star (larger data sets, even numbers of data and more challenging questions). Note answers are not given

Three sets of 12 quick fire questions to help prepare Year 13 students for the Core 4 examination. The grid is printed off and students can answer in the box (if printed on A3 paper). The powerpoint can be shown to give model solutions or used as a mark scheme

A complete series of lessons which deal with calculating the probabilities of events modelled under the normal distribution. This includes reverse probabilities and finding the parameters when given information about area. Full demonstrations on powerpoint and fully differentiated resources for students to complete, along with solutions

Two complete lessons on this new addition to the A-level Year 2 statistics. The second lesson gives students a chance to practise the skills they meet in the first. Both lessons come complete will full animated slideshows, differentiated worksheets for students to complete and a full set of answers

Two full lessons on the theory of binomial expansions and its applications. Both lessons come with fully animated slide-shows, fully differentiated resources for students to complete and a full set of worked solutions.

Updated with new questions, full solutions and differentiated work. Full boardwork included.

Full lesson on how we manipulate fractions involving multiplication and division. Full lesson demo and fully differentiated resource which students can complete. Full solutions given.

This concludes the partial fractions theory and looks at improper partial fractions. Full demo, fully differentiated sheet for students to complete and answers provided.

The first lesson in Year 13 introduces the concept of conditional probability through use of two-way tables, tree and Venn diagrams. Full demonstration and differentiated resource for students to write on. Answers given.

This extends the partial fraction theory into repeated linear terms. Full powerpoint demo and fully differentiated resource for students to write on. Answers included.

Lesson 2 in a series of lessons on simplifying expressions. This is a classic scenario where students are asked to find an expression for the perimeter of a shape. The powerpoint walks the students around the shapes and writes out the expression as we go. The fully differentiated resource allows students to write on the sheet (no need for drawing the shapes). One star is very basic with all sides having simple expressions. Two and three star have multi-term expressions on the edges and the rectangles have only the length and breadth shown. Answers not included.

A complete lesson in a series of 4 lessons that will take foundation students through the art of simplifying expressions. This starts with simple collection of terms such as a + a + 3a and 2a +4 + a - 4. The powerpoint uses dials (animated) to count the items as the expression is walked through. The fully differentiated resource that accompanies starts with one star (multi-choice) and progresses through to 3 star which simplifies expressions involving squares and negatives which students always think involve changing the power. Answer not included

Five assessments that I use to help prepare foundation students (or younger students) for end of year assessments. Based on old GCSE foundation papers the assessments cover all of the content of the GCSE (around 20 questions in each). They are printed on 8 sheets of A4 which I copy onto an A5 booklet, hence using only 2 sheets of paper and saving a lot of paper. Great for use at extra sessions, as homeworks, as class revision, or for filler lessons for absent staff. I have included a powerpoint of the first assessment so you can see what they look like.

An excellent way to finish a lesson. Print off a grid with 20 questions at the top and 20 answers at the bottom. The students work out the question and find the answer. The topics covered are percentages of amounts (easy, medium and hard), calculator percentages and percentage via multiplier. Easy to mark. Can be used as a quick Answers not included on some of them.

Two lessons that introduce the concept of shading regions on a 2D plane to help solve linear programming examples in the Decision 1 module of A level maths. The first lesson is simple shading out of regions and then the students are introduced to the concept of a linear programming problem, maximising profit. All powerpoints are fully animated to show shading and the solutions sets, all resources are printed so that students can draw straight on the graphs.

Two homework books which can be printed off as a A5 booklet on a single sheet of A4 paper to test the foundation knowledge of your students. The powerpoint in the preview is the actual first booklet. The questions are things that students need to know. Can be used as a revision aid or at extra sessions in school.

15 minute assessments that can be used as homeworks, assessments in class or revision. Each tests the basic recall in the following number topics: factors, fractions of amounts, percentages of amounts, multiplying by 100/1000, percentage recognition, square numbers, addition, patterns, subtraction, division and multiplication
