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.

Following the Dozen questions theme, attached here are two more worksheets with the same theme. Each worksheet has 12 questions based on the material for the higher level new GCSE specification. Answers are also attached. A great way to identify whether students are solid on the topics selected.

This is a lesson I usually use for year 7 or low ability classes in year 8 or 9. The aim of the lesson is to demonstrate how we change the symbols when working backwards. I teach this lesson before I move onto the solving of simple equations. After the worked examples there is a worksheet which students can complete in class or as a piece of homework.
This bundle is all the lessons I use for introducing circle theorems to a class. I have included the proofs of circle theorems which I tend to use with the higher groups only.
This lesson furthers a students knowledge from GCSE of the arithmetic progression. It introduces the students to a formula used for the nth term and has a proof for the sum of n term.
The lesson then has a series of worked examples.
These tests can be used to check whether students have met the standards required for topics which have been labelled as grade 6 or 7 in the new GCSE.
Clearly I have listed which topics are tested and students are given this list in advance so that they can revise the highlighted topics.
The idea is that students will answer the questions on paper and/or graph paper.
This lessons introduces the younger students to the first three laws of indices. Through worked examples students develop their understanding of the quick methods used.
The lesson is backed up with a worksheet which can be completed in class or as a piece of homework. I used this lesson with a very low ability year 8 class this week and it worked really well.
This lesson consists of a powerpoint of worked examples, which demonstrate how Algebraic fractions are simplified. The collection contains examples of factorising numerator and denominator before cancelling common factors and also includes multiplying and dividing algebraic fractions.
The lesson also contains a worksheet, with answers.
This powerpoint presentation introduces students to the understanding of area ratio and volume ratio when considering similar shapes. Through a series of worked examples students become more confident with answering such questions.
The lesson concludes with a worksheet which can be answered in class or given as a homework.

This bundle is a collection of lessons that I tend to use in year 8 or 9 to teach students direct and inverse proportion. Starting with numerical problems before looking at the more algebraic problems that we see at GCSE
This lesson is demonstrates through worked examples how Venn diagrams can be used to obtain the probability of a given event.
The lesson also has a worksheet attached.
This lesson and worksheet I have used as an introduction to scatter diagrams.
Through worked examples students learn how to draw a scatter diagram, draw a line of best fit and use the line of best fit to answer further questions.
The worksheet can then be used as a piece of classwork or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
New addition to this lesson: Printable two example sheet and Printable four page booklet containing three questions.
The new addition was created during COVID times to ensure that students covered as much work as possible during school time. The two worked examples (worked through at the board) ensured that students moved onto the set questions quicker. The three question booklet was also a quick way to assess whether the students understood what was taught.
This activity is aimed at Foundation students who are revising for their GCSE examination.
Each round consists of four questions. Print the slides 8 to 13 on A4 paper and place one printed slide per table.
Students are put into pairs (either by choice or teacher selection) and are given a copy of slide 14 and a few sheets of pieces of A4 paper.
The pairs are designated a starting table and the timer (slide 2) is started. The students are then given 5 minutes to answer the four questions on that table. Once the five minutes is up the students move clockwise to the next table and start the next set of four questions and the timer of slide 3 is started. This continues until all students have completed the six tables worth of questions.
For this run around calculators are placed on the table for questions 1 to 4 and table for questions 13 to 16
The answering of the questions takes no more than 30 minutes. Students then remain at their final table, swap their answer sheet with the nearest table and the answers are produced. At this stage I go through the questions before revealing the answers. In this way the students have had a go at GCSE style foundation questions and have also seen a demonstration as to how they should have been answered.
Finally, students add up their score and the highest score get a prize!
Here are two papers for mathematics examinations aimed at non calculator for foundation and higher.
These papers can not be obtained by students on the internet. Hence are ideal for end of term (or year) assessments.
Solutions are included.
These two spreadsheets have been completed with the three uploaded papers in mind.
There are instructions on how to use the spreadsheet. Once the papers have been marked the students individual scores are placed into the spreadsheet question by question. The teacher can then glance to see which topics are class issues and which topics are just problem areas for one or two.
There is also the facility to print out an overview per student. Each individual question is RAG rated so that it is easy to identify incorrect answers, partially correct answers and full marks.
As I said the spreadsheet is aimed at the three papers I have posted. However it can be modified for other papers used in class. Simply replacing the listed topics an max mark allocation allows the spreadsheet to be used for papers you create or use.
