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.

7 Resources
This bundle consists of a number of lessons from the four rules of number to the conversion of decimals into fractions and vice versa. The bundle also includes a workbook which students can use to demonstrate their knowledge of decimal work.
The Definite integral

The Definite integral

(0)
Following on from the lesson on indefinite integral. This lesson looks at the limits attached to a given integral.
Parametric's : Tangents & Normals

Parametric's : Tangents & Normals

(0)
This lesson draws together two earlier lessons. One on Tangents and normals to a curve. The second on Parametric Differentiation. The lesson consists of a few worked examples.
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.
Algebraic Problems involving Angles

Algebraic Problems involving Angles

(0)
This lesson and worksheets looks at algebraic problems which involve constructing equations based on the knowledge of either angles in a triangle angles in a quadrilateral ands associated with parallel lines angles in a parallelogram angles associated with circle theorems. There are two worksheets to backup the worked examples. The second worksheet is similar to the first just in case you need a review and want student to "have another go" Solutions are provided.
Transformations of graphs Introduction

Transformations of graphs Introduction

(0)
These two lessons and worksheets are lessons which cover the translations of graphs and the knowledge of stretching a graph by a given scale factor. The lesson is aimed at the students working out the translation which takes place by initially drawing certain graphs and then linking them the original graph drawn. This is then followed by a series of examples. The second lesson is similar in that the students are encouraged to draw a series of graphs before linking them to the original as a stretch. The lesson then continues with a series of worked examples. Both lessons have a worksheet with solutions.

Here is a small group of revision lessons I have recently used for my year 11 students. These have been written with them in mind and cover the types of questions they were struggling with. Generally I tend to go through one or two at the board before they attempt the others. Revision lessons included are Probability tree diagrams Distance speed time Ingredient questions Flow diagrams and some general “wordy” questions that can be troubling for many students.
Circle Theorem: Angles in a cyclic quadrilateral

Circle Theorem: Angles in a cyclic quadrilateral

(0)
This lesson follows lessons on the circle theorems involving angles from the same arc, angle at the centre and angles in a semicircle. The lesson has a series of worked examples followed by a worksheet which can be used in class or as a piece of homework.

GCSE Graded Resources

Due to the COVID 19 pandemic and recent lock downs, I have designed a series of graded worksheets which can be used to identify gaps in students work throughout the grades. This first batch looks at the material which should cover most topics in the Foundation Tier, graded from 1 to 5. There are approximately 3 to 4 sheets for each grade (with answers). The idea is that a student is given a grade 1 sheet to complete. Once marked and reviewed, the class teacher can then identify class issues, individual student issues and revise accordingly. The a second grade 1 sheet can be given to see if there is improvement. This can be completed for a third and sometimes a forth time. The same approach is then given to grades 2, 3, 4 and 5. This can also be used to seek what worked in lock down with on line learning and what did not.
Ratio & Proportion
sjcoopersjcooper

Ratio & Proportion

(0)
These 5 lessons introduce students to Ratio and proportion. Lesson 1: Simplifying a ratio and expressing a ratio as a fraction Lesson 2: Expressing as a ratio and simplifying Lesson 3: Dividing into a ratio using the totals in ratio Lesson 4: Dividing into a ratio using one of the given parts Lesson 5: Dividing into a ratio when using the difference between two ratios or the sum of some parts. Each lesson consists of a PowerPoint, printed examples (if preferred ) and a workbook (which I usually print as an A5 booklet). Solutions are given for the workbooks.
Area & Perimeter of a rectangle

Area & Perimeter of a rectangle

(0)
These two lessons I usually teach to year 7 students. However it could be taught at primary of even higher than year 7, if students struggle with area and perimeter. The powerPoints consist of worked examples demonstrating how we find the area of a rectangle or perimeter.
Area of a Triangle & Trapezium
sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a Triangle & Trapezium

(0)
These two PowerPoint presentations teach students how we find the area of a triangle and a trapezium. Now that students must learn the formula for the area of a trapezium I have shown how the formula is created through the knowledge of the area of a triangle. Through worked examples students learn how to apply these formulae.
Algebraic Long Division

Algebraic Long Division

(0)
This lesson introduces students to long division for algebraic fractions. I usually teach this lesson before the lessons on factor and remainder theorem.
Angle Properties
sjcoopersjcooper

Angle Properties

5 Resources
This series of lessons teaches students how to answer questions involving 1. Angles on a straight line 2. Angles at a point. 3. Vertically opposite angles. 4. Corresponding angles & Alternate angles 5. Angles in a triangle & quadrilaterals
Drawing straight line graphs

Drawing straight line graphs

(0)
This lesson shows students how to work out the y coordinates for given x coordinates. Then the results are placed onto a given xy axis and the line drawn. The lesson is accompanied with a worksheet for students to answer in class or as a piece of homework.
Area of a circle
sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a circle

(0)
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. The answer sheet provided here is for the free resource I have provided on the TES.
