I am now a retired teacher having taught for over 40 years in the UK at secondary level. I wanted to share my love of Mathematics and teaching by providing a good set of resources which will more than cover all your needs for as many topics as I can and at good value for money. I am trying to cover many topics from foundation level GCSE up to grade 9 at higher level in a way that is interesting and relevant. I hope you like my style !

Differentiation Using The Quotient Rule

(0)
This is a cracking worksheet with almost 30 questions on every aspect of differentiation using the quotient rule. There is a large number of questions on using the quotient rule - some of these mix the chain rule or the product rule in too, and then there are a few involving the applications of differentiation. This pdf is an excellent resource for revising the Quotient Rule. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you

Solving a Linear and a Quadratic Equation Simultaneously + Answers

(0)
A very useful worksheet for grade 7+ students. This topic has been in every GCSE paper from all boards since the introduction of the 9 - 1 exam. This PDF consists of 26 questions on solving a pair of simultaneous equations - one linear and one quadratic - resulting in a quadratic equation and hence two points of intersection. All questions have been carefully worked out to give integer answers and none of the resulting quadratics are ‘ugly’. I recently added a second set of questions on where a line crosses a circle - focusing on one, two or zero solutions and their interpretation. Answers are included Please give feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

(Grouped) Frequency Tables - 11 questions with answers

(0)
Aimed at KS4 this pdf contains 11 questions on finding the mean, mode and median from grouped frequency tables. I have covered both discrete and continuous data and, for the latter, I would expect the more able students to be able to use linear interpolation to estimate the median - so I have included questions on this, though they can be omitted if not needed. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.
(Discrete) Frequency Tables - 11 Questions with Answers
happymathematicianhappymathematician

(Discrete) Frequency Tables - 11 Questions with Answers

(0)
Aimed at KS3 and foundation level GCSE. This PDF has 11 questions on finding the averages from a discrete frequency table. Though Mean, mode and Median are requested I always asked pupils to state the range of the data too. All questions are in context and are relevant. I use these at KS3 and also at foundation level at KS4. The last two questions are a little more tricky with the median though. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Drawing Pie Charts

(0)
This PDF is a worksheet of six questions on ‘Drawing Pie Charts’. Each question covers a full page and the circle and starting line are presented to the student. Answer on the sheet - or use each question to show how the work should be set out and angles calculated. I used this with KS3 initially but found it really useful to talk through, ‘How to answer exam questions’ with the foundation level GCSE groups too.
Reading Bar Charts

Reading Bar Charts

(0)
This PDF consists of six questions on reading bar charts. Primarily its function was to enable me to discuss the different types of bar charts that they need to know about, and the type of questions that can come from bar charts. I did not feel it necessary to ask several questions on each type as they are really straight forward. I have covered compound and component bar charts as well as percentage bar charts. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.
Averages
happymathematicianhappymathematician

Averages

(0)
This pdf consists of 10 questions on Mean, Mode and Median of discrete with a small range - frequency tables are covered in a seperate worksheet. The first question (with around 20 parts) is simply finding Mean, Mode and Median and I used this with year 7 and also used it to discuss RANGE. The second set of questions I tended to do in Year 8 or 9 but can be used for revision with lower ability groups - these questions explore the pupils understanding of Mean. Ideal for the introduction of Mean, Mode, Median and Range and also useful for a revision worksheet. Answers are included.

This is a PDF consisting of 18 diagrams showing a journey from A to B. Angles are given, sometimes from North but more often from South or East or West. Students need to give the 3 Figure Bearing. I used this when teaching Bearings to Key Stage 3 but it is useful to recap at Key Stage 4 where would always ask the question - “And what is the reverse bearing ?”
