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.

Volume of revolution

(0)
This lesson teaches the students how to find the volume of a curve that has been rotated through four right angles about the x-axis. This is done through a series of worked examples.
Circumference of a circle

Circumference of a circle

(0)
Lesson introduces students again to pi (as with the area resource). However this time students are able to work out the formula for the Circumference of a circle if they have already used my resource for the Area of a circle. The lesson has a variety of examples to be answered at the board and ends with a worksheet for students to answer either 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 Cosine Rule
sjcoopersjcooper

The Cosine Rule

(0)
Lesson introduces students to the Cosine Rule formula which can be used for a variety of triangles. The lesson then has a series of worked examples before ending with a a number of questions for students to complete.
Trigonometry & Pythagoras
sjcoopersjcooper

Trigonometry & Pythagoras

6 Resources
This bundle covers lessons regarding Pythagoras' Theorem, Trigonometry for the right angled triangle, The Sine rule and Cosine rule and finally the area of a triangle.
Multiples, Factors, Prime Factors, LCM and HCF
sjcoopersjcooper

Multiples, Factors, Prime Factors, LCM and HCF

(0)
This lesson or two has a series of slides which help teach or revise the words listed above. This is done with a variety of examples playing particular attention to prime factors. The powerpoint ends with two slides which can be printed off as a worksheet for students to answer in class or for homework.
Subtraction of number
sjcoopersjcooper

Subtraction of number

(0)
The worksheet can be used in class or as a piece of homework for student to demonstrate their ability to subtract two numbers. Students could write on the sheet, however I often have them answer on paper or in their books.
Partial Fractions (Using the coverup rule)

Partial Fractions (Using the coverup rule)

(0)
This short series of examples demonstrates how we can use the coverup rule to quickly place a given algebraic fraction into partial fractions. The examples also includes areas where partial fractions is useful.
The CAST Diagram
sjcoopersjcooper

The CAST Diagram

(0)
I use this PowerPoint over two lessons. The first lesson introduces students to the CAST diagram. There is an assumption that students are already aware of the three trig curves. A series of examples follow where students find the exact value for the sin, cos or tan of certain angles. The second lesson looks at the definition of a negative angle. The lessons complete with examples of how the CAST diagram can be used to solve simple trig equations for a given range.
The Parabola
sjcoopersjcooper

The Parabola

(0)
This lesson looks at the Parabola from a Geometric point of view. Sketching the curve from knowing the vertex and key coordinates. The examples also involve some algebraic operations involved with the parabola.
Inverse Functions
sjcoopersjcooper

Inverse Functions

(0)
This lesson shows students how a function f(x) can be rearranged to obtain the inverse function. Students are also shown the graph of an inverse function when given the graph of y = f(x).
Function of a function rule (chain rule)
sjcoopersjcooper

Function of a function rule (chain rule)

(0)
This lesson is an introduction to the more complicated differentiation. Using the knowledge of basic differentiation these examples introduce students to differentiation by substitution before using the rule. I teach this rule this way first before showing them the quick approach when teaching the product rule and quotient rule.
Circular Measures: Radians, Arc length and area of a sector
sjcoopersjcooper

Circular Measures: Radians, Arc length and area of a sector

(0)
This lesson introduces students to the angle measure the Radian. There is a quick proof of the Area of a sector and arc length formulae. Followed by several worked examples on the use of these formulae. It is expected that students would have met the area of a triangle formula in trigonometry before this lesson.
Solving Trig equations continued.
sjcoopersjcooper

Solving Trig equations continued.

(0)
This lesson makes continued use of the CAST diagram for solving trig equations in a given range. The lesson is used to introduce the quadratics that we see in trig equations and the necessary trig identities needed to solve them.
New GCSE grade 7 material: Test 2

New GCSE grade 7 material: Test 2

(0)
This is a Test I will use to check whether my students have met the standards required for topics which have been labelled as grade 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. More tests will follow as I prepare them and then bundles will become available.

Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral
sjcoopersjcooper

Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral

(0)
The power point presentation shows students why angles in a triangle add up to 180. Prior knowledge is required here of the angles on a straight line and/or Alternate angles. The power point has a series of worked examples for the angles in a triangle before looking at the angles in a quadrilateral. Following the angles in a quadrilateral there are a series of cards that can be printed to go with a collection of questions at the board. (a bit like bingo) Students answer each question and should find a number that can be crossed out. The winner being the one who completes their card correctly!
Surface Area
sjcoopersjcooper

Surface Area

(0)
This lesson looks at finding the surface area of shapes such as cuboids, square based pyramids, cylinders, cones and spheres. The lesson also shows a proof for the surface area formula of a cone. However for this students to understand this proof it is essential that they have already met arc length and area of a sector. The lesson contains a number of worked examples.

The worksheet can be used in class or as a piece of homework for student to demonstrate their ability to multiply two numbers together. Students could write on the sheet, however I often have them answer on paper or in their books.
