These printable worksheets make it easier to teach this topic as the questions and solutions can just be projected onto a board or screen to work through or check as a class. This is suitable for the new GCSE spec (includes invariant points). I normally work through the first worksheet as an example and then set the second worksheet (12 pages) as a task for the class to do on their own. Solutions included.

The first 2 resources can be used to introduce the formula as an alternative method for solving quadratic equations, and includes 3 worked examples in the presentation. There are two worksheets to practise solving quadratic equations using the quadratic formula. The first worksheet contains the answers, so is intended to be used as practice in the classroom, while the second worksheet does not include the answers, intended as a homework. Note that the solutions must be given in simplified surd form, so students need to be able to simplify surds.

The worksheet has 15 questions which all involve drawing the 2 correct lines on the grids provided and finding the point of intersection to solve the simultaneous equations. It includes lines in the form y=mx+c and ax+by=c. Answers are included. Also included is a sheet for your class to revise drawing straight lines of the form y=mx+c and ax+by=c, which they may be useful before attempting the simultaneous equations sheet. Answers to this sheet are also included.

These resources contain questions that revise the 3 methods for solving linear simultaneous equations - graphical, elimination and substitution. There are 2 different revision resources here - the second is provided in two versions (with and without the answers).

The presentation and accompanying sheet can be used to introduce plotting points on a scatter diagram, considering correlation and the line of best fit. The worksheet can then be given to students to practise the topic - worked solutions are provided.

This 12-page worksheet starts by introducing a method for drawing pie charts and has an example to work through as a class, followed by 6 examples for students to complete. The next section focuses on getting information from a pie chart - starting with an example to work through as a class and then 6 examples for students to complete. All answers are included.

The powerpoint presentation revises all the knowledge/skills required for basic differentiation - finding gradients, stationary points and their nature, tangents and normals, increasing and decreasing functions. The accompanying document mirrors the presentation and is meant to be completed by the students by themselves or as you work through the presentation - the document then serves as a revision sheet for the whole topic of differentiation. Note that these resources were created specifically for the Level 2 Further Maths course but they would still work well for a summary of the methods for basic differentiation.

After a few years of teaching packing algorithms by creating and working through examples on the board I got sick of it and created these resources. They make it easy to introduce, work through some examples and then there is another worksheet full of examples for students to attempt where the fully-worked solutions are already done, making it easy to check. The printable worksheets mean that students don't need to copy down lists of numbers or create tables to work on - this means they can spend the time just practising using the algorithm. There is also the excel spreadsheet I created to generate examples - this can used to make as many more examples as you want (instructions are on the spreadsheet).

After a few years of teaching sorting algorithms by creating and working through examples on the board I got sick of it and created these resources. They make it easy to introduce, work through some examples and then there is another worksheet full of examples for students to attempt where the fully-worked solutions are already done, making it easy to check.

These resources are a great way for your students to revise the key points they need to remember and understand about bubble sort, shuttle sort and the first-fit algorithms. The multiple choice questions are a quick way to check/revise the key knowledge, or this could be used as a quick assessment (answers provided) The sorting and packing practice worksheet has 2 pages of examination-style questions for students to attempt (worked answers included). The final resource is a 4-page document starting with all the required knowledge and skills listed on the first page, followed by 2 pages of examination-style questions (worked answers provided).

A treasure hunt activity for a class to attempt individually or in groups. There are 24 questions, numbered from 1 to 24. Each group chooses a number from 1 to 24 at random (or you can assign them a start number), and this is the number of the first question they should attempt - this should be written in the top-left circle on their answer grid. Their answer to their first question should be a whole number from 1 to 24 - this should be written in the next circle on their grid and this is the number of the next question they should attempt. e.g. if a group starts on Q6 and they think the answer to Q6 is 13 then after Q6 they should attempt Q13 (and they should have 6 -> 13 on their answer grid). If they answer the questions correctly they end up with the same chain of answers as on the solution, if they make a mistake they will repeat an earlier question and at that point you can decide how much help to give them sorting out their error(s). This activity works best if you can stick the 24 questions around a large classroom or sports hall so the groups have to run around to find their next question. All the classes I've done these activities with have loved them.

A two-sided sheet of questions designed as a homework or summary task after learning how to solve problems involving arranging and choosing items. Worked solutions included. Suitable for the new GCSE maths syllabus.

The introduction sheet is designed to be used as a class activity to learn about bearings and then solving problems involving bearings using trigonometry. The second sheet is a worksheet with a mix of problems involving trigonometry and bearings (answers included).

The first resource is table of 34 questions where the students must find, for example, the equivalent decimal and percentage for the given fraction. This worksheet does not require knowledge of recurring decimals. The second resource is for more advanced conversion of decimals to fractions and vice-versa. It is a 4-page worksheet which focuses on converting recurring decimals, including proofs. Answers to both worksheets are included.

This resource is designed to introduce the method for finding the volume of a shape created when an area is rotated around an axis. The first side explains the derivation of the formulae - I would recommend you also try to show your students an animation that helps them visualise a 3D shape being created by a region rotating about an axis (lots are freely available online). There are then 5 pages of questions for your students to complete. Most of the questions are in two parts - the first part involves finding an area, the second part involves finding a volume (a very common style of question in examination papers). Note that students are expected to be able to integrate using ln, e and reverse chain rule. Answers to all questions are provided.

This resource is designed to introduce the method of finding dx/dy and using this to work out the gradient of a curve. There are 3 examples to work through as a class - these will show that to differentiate a curve in some cases it is necessary to have the equation of the curve in the form x=f(y). There is then a short note to summarise the method and then 3 pages of examination-style questions for students to practise. Answers are included.

This worksheet can be used to teach/practise the required knowledge and skills expected at A level for the topic of proportion. The first page focuses on writing down the correct equation in different cases of direct and indirect proportion. The second page focuses on the graph(s) that can represent different types of proportion. The final page has a number of problems to solve with variables that are directly or inversely proportional. Fully worked solutions to all questions are provided.

This resource is a great way to assess your class after teaching all the "using graphs" topic. There are 12 questions in total, covering the following: 1. Intersections of graphs 2. Using the discriminant to show/determine the number of points of intersection 3. Graph transformations 4. Proportion 5. Inequalities on graphs Fully worked solutions to all questions are provided.

These 3 resources cover the following types of percentage question: 1. Writing one quantity as a % of another 2. Finding a % of a quantity 3. Increase/decrease by a % 4. Finding the % change Each resource is split into a non-calculator section and a calculator section. Each section has an introduction where the method(s) is/are explained with some examples to illustrate, followed by an exercise for students to complete. In total there are over 150 questions for students to work through - all solutions are provided.
