<p>These slides are designed to explain in depth the idea of Newton’s 2nd Law and finding equations of motion. They are for A-level Maths studying the Mechanics section of the course. Slides are complete with many examples, full worked solutions and animations.</p>
<p>I have used this successfully to really help my Year 12 students understand this concept. I believe students usually find mechanics difficult when they first encounter it as it is very different to the pure maths they are more used to.</p>

<p>A sequence of lessons I have now successfully delivered to a Year 9 and Year 10 top set and a Year 10 set 2. The students were confident in carrying out the skill of solving quadratic simultaneous equations. I have included plenty of practice questions, some whiteboard questions for AFL, exam type questions and a a difficult challenge question. I have included a bit on solving quadratic simultaneous equation graphically as well. I will upload a worksheet soon to help with teaching this aspect of the topic. Please leave a review if you found this resource useful. Thank.s</p>
Pupils were very engaged on this task.<br />
The four clues are:<br />
American<br />
Trainers<br />
Chicago<br />
Basketball<br />
<br />
and the answer is of course Michael Jordan.
<p>Suitable for a higher tier. Knowledge of indices is required as it can serve as a bit of revision for indices too. Up to and including composite functions but no inverse functions. Try to inject fun into functions for your classes…</p>
A full lesson on stationary points. Starter is an indices recap as pupils must be able to manipulate indices well in order differentiate most functions. There are some slides to recap tangents and normals. Plenary is a C2 exam question with full worked solutions included. <br />

I also decided to teach calculus using Dragon Ball Z! Please check it out!
<p>Suitable for Year 1/Year 2 A-Level Maths. A true/false quiz logs. Ideal for AFL use and for debunking any misconceptions students usually have about logs.</p>
<p>Drawing quadratic graphs worksheet successfully used in a lesson to a high ability Year 10 group.</p>
<p>Links drawing quadratic graphs to previous topics on quadratics such as expanding double brackets, completing the square and turning points.</p>
Lesson 1 on C1 differentiation. I haven't derived it from first principles but I explore the concept explore the use of differentiation in order to find the gradient functions.
<p>Suitable for Year 12 Further Maths/Year13. Integration revision task. I got my students to first answer with which method to evaluate the integrals and reveal the tiles. The film is of course ‘The Matrix’. The students then worked through the integrals afterwards successfully.</p>
<p>A resource I’ve made to go alongside the teaching of eigenvectors from the specification. This is designed to stretch high ability pupils in Year 13 Further Maths and help better prepare them for Linear Algebra courses at university. Please leave a review if you used this with your students.</p>
