The Resources within this shop are all designed for the teaching of Mathematics for those in the age range 7 - 18 years old. Most resources consist of a PowerPoint lesson followed by a worksheet for the students. With over twenty nine years of experience, the powerpoint/worksheets within the shop have been used successfully by myself and colleagues over that time. As a head of department for over 15 years, the department has yearly been judged as adding substantial value to students grades.

This lesson is aimed at the higher level student. It is designed to be taught after the tree diagram lesson. Probably late into year 10 or early year 11. The worked examples demonstrate how the tree diagram can be used to answer some questions, but also demonstrates another quicker method of dealing with repeated events.

GCSE Revision Lessons: Transformations & Fractions

(1)
Each revision lessons last approximately an hour each with my classes. I work through the worked examples before students then attempt the set questions. We then discuss the answers and correct any mistakes made. The revision lessons in this collection are Transformations: Describing transformations that have been done. Fractions: Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication & division of..

Here are a three revision lessons I have used for my foundation students. The lessons consist of Area and Circumference of a circle. Solving Equations : letters on one side & letters on both sides. Probability of a single event. Dividing into a given ratio. This is easily 4 hours of work. I have used this with year 11 students revising topics in one hour blocks.
Rearranging Formulae Revision

Gradient of a line and y intercept

(1)
This lesson is used in lower school to introduce students to the gradient of a straight line by calculation. The lesson then looks at the general equation of the line. Acknowledging that m stands for the gradient and c the y intercept. There is a worksheet attached to this lesson which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.

Types of Solids

(1)
There are approximately four lessons of work here which include the knowledge of Prisms, Pyramids and Spheres. I tend to get the students to copy the examples into their books. Then when they start the worksheet they have something to look back at for guidance.
Direct & Inverse Proportion Revision
sjcoopersjcooper

Direct & Inverse Proportion Revision

(0)
This revision lesson looks at the ability to answer a variety of questions related to direct or inverse proportion. As with the other revision lessons in the shop, the lesson is constructed with multiples of two worked examples before students attempt some similar questions. Answers are provided.

Mathematics Games to play close to Easter. A series of Mathematics games that can be played in the classroom or even placed around the school play ground for break and lunchtime activities. Each game consists of twelve questions written onto twelve pictured easter eggs. The idea is that the students know the starting card but initially have no idea of the last card. The aim of the game is to answer the questions in the correct order thereby revealing a code. The student can then submit the correct code to the teacher and maybe receive a reward of some kind! The games consist of : Addition Addition & Subtraction Multiplication Long Multiplication Fractions of a quantity Percentages of a quantity Solving algebraic equations
