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.

The Parabola

The Parabola

(0)
This lesson looks at the Parabola from a Geometric point of view. Sketching the curve from knowing the vertex and key coordinates. The examples also involve some algebraic operations involved with the parabola.
Introduction to Projectiles

Introduction to Projectiles

This lesson is an introduction to projectiles. It is assumed that students are already familiar with the standard formulae used in kinematics when a body moves in one direction. I always start this lesson by throwing the board pen horizontally and students witness that it moves in two directions. We discuss the acceleration acting on the body and hence the first example is on this basis. I follow that up with some more worked examples before giving them a standard diagram for projectiles.
Reverse Percentages

This lesson demonstrates to students how we can find the original amount when a percentage has already been added on or subtracted off.
Circumference of a circle

Circumference of a circle

Lesson introduces students again to pi (as with the area resource). However this time students are able to work out the formula for the Circumference of a circle if they have already used my resource for the Area of a circle. The lesson has a variety of examples to be answered at the board and ends with a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
Area of a circle

Area of a circle

A lesson introduces the students to pi. Students work out for themselves with little guidance that pi is approximately 3 or even 3.1. This also gives the teacher the opportunity to introduce the formula for the area of the circle. The follow up lesson also on this resource has several examples involving finding the areas of circles. The resource also contains a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
Calculus Lesson2: Differentiation by rule

Calculus Lesson2: Differentiation by rule

(0)
This lesson is a follow on from the lesson on differentiation by first principles. Following that lesson and homework, students should by now have realised a shorter approach with differentiation. This lesson develops that understanding, whilst still remaining with the positive power. There is an assumption here that they would have met Tangents and Normals to the curve through their geometry work. The lesson also contains a worksheet for students to work through.
Multiplication of Decimals

Multiplication of Decimals

(0)
This PowerPoint demonstrates through a series of worked examples how we can multiply a given decimal by a given integer.
Division of Fractions

Division of Fractions

(0)
This lesson is a Powerpoint and Worksheet which I have used to teach students how to divide fractions. This lesson is taught once I have covered multiplication of fraction. Once the worked examples have been covered students are given the worksheet to either complete in class or as homework. Answers to the worksheet are also provided.
Pythagoras Theorem Introduction

Pythagoras Theorem Introduction

(0)
This is a power point presentation which introduces students to the knowledge of Pythagoras' Theorem. It includes many worked examples. I usually teach this over two lessons.
Area & Perimeter

This Lesson in a PowerPoint which introduces students to the topic of decimal places through a series of worked examples.
Probability: Rules of
sjcoopersjcooper

Probability: Rules of

(0)
This lesson makes use of the Venn diagram and introduces students to the probability of A union B and A intersection B. The students then make use of these formulae in other examples.
Proof by Induction
sjcoopersjcooper

Proof by Induction

(0)
This lesson is used to introduce students, through worked example, to the topic of proof by induction.
The 3 by 3 Matrix

The 3 by 3 Matrix

(0)
This lesson introduces the students to the 3 x 3 matrix. Students learn how to calculate the determinant, the adjugate and hence the inverse of a 3 x 3 matrix.
