Three challenging homeworks for Advanced Higher Maths covering the following topics
Proof by Induction (lots of this)
Direct proof
Proof by Contradiction
Counterexamples
Proof by contrapositive
All provided with full worked solutions
A mixed homework with questions on arithmetic and geometric sequences, as well as practice complex numbers, binomial theorem and Gaussian elimination.
Full solutions included
Three homeworks and a set of extended questions on the topics of

At last! An explanation for why mathematicians like Radians. Divided into six categories
Pi is great
Rotation Speed
Drawing Graphs
Calculus
Sine expansion Formula
Spherical Trigonometry
Includes short questions on each category
A collection of typical Proof By Inductions, around 100 in total. Very useful as a teacher if you are looking for examples to use. Includes all the main categories plus a few unusual ones.
They are grouped by category: Divisibility, Greater Than, Summation, Recurrence Relationships, Matrices, Calculus, Fibonacci, Miscellaneous, Geometry, Important Theorems, Extensions and Paradoxes
Includes sources for even more example proofs.
A series of 17 one-page handouts each with explanations, examples then questions.
Covers Numbers, Negatives, Fractions, Percentages, Algebra.
For lower ability classes I print these out and they stick them in their jotters.
The topics are:
Types of Number, Factors, Powers, Prime Factors, Negatives adding and subtracting, Negatives multiplying and dividing, Fractions of an amount, Equivalent fractions, Mixed numbers, Multiplying and Dividing fractions, Adding and subtracting fractions, Finding percentages, Fractions decimals percentages, Substitution, Multiplying Brackets, Simplifying, Solving Equations)
A fun lesson that introduces Graph Theory through the example of Facebook.
The Powerpoint introduces it and then the worksheet lets them practice.
Key terms learned are: edges, vertices, degree, connected.
A series of examples and full solutions on the following topics
- Volume of a Prism (cuboids, cylinders and triangular prisms)
- Surface Area of a Prism (cuboids, cylinders and other prisms)
A series of examples and questions on the following topics:
Express a change in value as Percentage
Calculate Compound Interest
Reverse Percentage Change
Appreciation/Depreciation by a Percentage
Provided with solutions
Worked examples and questions on these four topics:
Substitute values into expressions and evaluate
Multiply two brackets
Solve inequalities
Create and solve inequalities for problems in words
Solutions included
Thirteen homeworks each with full solutions, covering the following areas of the course.
1 - Probability
2 - Probability, Sampling, Binomial
3 - Probability, Sampling, Binomial
4 - Binomial, Normal, Poisson #1
5 - Distributions
5a - Distributions and Regressions
6 - Hypothesis Test

9 - Mean and Variance
10 - Binomial, Normal, Poisson #2
11 - Z and T tests
12 - More Distributions
13 - Wilcoxon and Mann Whitney
For some of the homeworks (2,3,5) I have made slightly different alternative versions and they are included too.
Update: homeworks 2,5,7 updated March 2023
A one page summary of the four different types of two sample tests:
Mann Whitney
Wilcoxon
Z-test
T-test
Also extra questions on two sample z-tests for proportions
This contains a dynamic introduction to Stem and Leaf diagrams, using a sort of game. There are then examples to be worked through in groups, and further practice questions to be attempted individually. All provided with answers and commentary.
A problem solving project where pupils use Pythagoras to find how far away the horizon is, depending on your height about sea level.
This is an open-ended project, where rather than being given all the information up front the pupils have to work in groups to explore the problem, then reflect on what techniques were effective.
It practices several useful skills such as Pythagoras, circle geometry, expanding brackets and rearranging formulas.
There is the scope for very good pupils to extend the project in interesting directions.
A series of projects on rearranging formulas.
(Note: Some of the embedded equations do not display well on the TES preview but they all display perfectly on the downloadable PDFs)
Each project is linked to real life situations, and also includes lots of practice at other KS4 / National 5 Skills: standard form, algebra using brackets, volume formulas, rounding, units, surds.
A bumper collection of resources for Factorizing Quadratics, including various activities and games and plenty of practice questions, which also include the other types of factorising required for KS4 or National 5 in Scotland.
- Jokes and riddles for factorising trinomials
- Catchphrase for factorising trinomials
- Quadratic problems for real life problems, with trinomials, completing square and finding roots
- Extra questions, with five pages of simple factorisation, difference of squares, trinomials and problem solving
All provided with answers
This is a series of questions that will guide pupils from thinking only in numbers to thinking algebraically.
The questions are increasingly challenging, finishing with some that require a lot of thought and can be investigated further.
