GCSE Maths : Area & Volume Ratio

(1)
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.
Arithmetic Progressions
sjcoopersjcooper

Arithmetic Progressions

(1)
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.
Constructing Triangles

Constructing Triangles

(1)
Three lessons on how to construct Triangles. Each lesson has a relevant worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework. Each worksheet also has a solution sheet. First lesson looks at constructing triangles when given all three sides. Second lesson looks at constructing triangles when given one side and two angles. Third lesson looks at constructing triangles when given two sides and one angle.
Angles in a Triangle & Angles in a Quadrilateral
sjcoopersjcooper

Angles in a Triangle & Angles in a 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!
Paper 1 Mathematics papers for Foundation & Higher
sjcoopersjcooper

Paper 1 Mathematics papers for Foundation & Higher

(1)
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.
Revision questions for New GCSE Mathematics
sjcoopersjcooper

Revision questions for New GCSE Mathematics

(1)
These examination papers have been written in the style of the new GCSE Mathematics Papers. There are 41 questions and Answers helping students revise Algebraic Fractions Arc length and Area of a sector Area under the graph Calculating the mean Completing the square Composite and Inverse functions Compound Percentage questions.
GCSE Revision Lessons: Transformations & Fractions
sjcoopersjcooper

GCSE Revision Lessons: Transformations & Fractions

(1)
Each revision lessons last approximately an hour each with my classes. I work through the worked examples before students then attempt the set questions. We then discuss the answers and correct any mistakes made. The revision lessons in this collection are Transformations: Describing transformations that have been done. Fractions: Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication & division of..
Properties of a velocity time graph revision
sjcoopersjcooper

Properties of a velocity time graph revision

(1)
This revision lesson looks at revising with students the understanding that area under a curve represents distance travelled and the gradient of a tangent represents acceleration when looking at a velocity time graph. The revision lessons is a mixture of worked examples and questions for the students to attempt before reviewing at the board.
Revision lessons 2
sjcoopersjcooper

Revision lessons 2

(1)
Here are a three revision lessons I have used for my foundation students. The lessons consist of Area and Circumference of a circle. Solving Equations : letters on one side & letters on both sides. Probability of a single event. Dividing into a given ratio. This is easily 4 hours of work. I have used this with year 11 students revising topics in one hour blocks.
Gradient of a line and y intercept
sjcoopersjcooper

Gradient of a line and y intercept

(1)
This lesson is used in lower school to introduce students to the gradient of a straight line by calculation. The lesson then looks at the general equation of the line. Acknowledging that m stands for the gradient and c the y intercept. There is a worksheet attached to this lesson which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
GCSE Higher level Algebra Revision
sjcoopersjcooper

GCSE Higher level Algebra Revision

(1)
This revision powerpoint looks at worked examples for the topics of Completing the square and solving quadratics inequalities. The second revision lesson looks at iterative formulae and quadratic sequences. The idea is that the member of staff works through 2 or 3 examples before the student attempts one question at a time. The review of the question then reinforces the students understanding of the topics.
Perpendicular Lines
sjcoopersjcooper

Perpendicular Lines

(1)
This lesson is used to introduce students to perpendicular lines. Finding the gradient of a perpendicular line and the equation of such lines. The lesson is followed with a worksheet which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
Arc length & Area of a sector
sjcoopersjcooper

Arc length & Area of a sector

(0)
These two PowerPoints are designed to teach students how to find the arc length of a circle or the area of a sector. The assumption is that students will already know how tho find the area of a circle and the circumference of a circle. Through worked examples students learn how to work out the area of a sector or the length of an arc.
Angles in a polygon
sjcoopersjcooper

Angles in a polygon

(1)
This is a lesson which demonstrates to students the sum of the angles in a variety of polygons through the knowledge of the angles in a triangle. The lesson then looks at a method of finding the interior and exterior angles of regular polygons. This resource also contains a worksheet for either classwork or homework (answers to follow!)
Types of Solids
sjcoopersjcooper

Types of Solids

(1)
There are approximately four lessons of work here which include the knowledge of Prisms, Pyramids and Spheres. I tend to get the students to copy the examples into their books. Then when they start the worksheet they have something to look back at for guidance.
Circle Centre (0,0) radius r
sjcoopersjcooper

Circle Centre (0,0) radius r

(1)
This lesson introduces the students to the circle centre (0,0) radius r. Worked examples look at tangency to the circle and points of intersection.
Spreadsheets to accompany the Three Mathematics papers
sjcoopersjcooper

Spreadsheets to accompany the Three Mathematics papers

(1)
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.
Introduction to Algebra
sjcoopersjcooper

Introduction to Algebra

(1)
This power point presentation is an introduction to Algebra. By the end of the one or two lessons students should have gained a basic understanding for the use of letters and be able to collect together like terms. The structure of the lesson allows the teacher to discuss answers and write them down as the power point in flow.
Vertically Opposite angles
sjcoopersjcooper

Vertically Opposite angles

(1)
This lesson and worksheet teaches students, through worked examples, how to work out missing angles when two straight lines cut each other. This Powerpoint can be used for students who struggle with Mathematics or as an introduction for younger students. The worksheet also has an answer sheet provided.
Pie Charts
sjcoopersjcooper

Pie Charts

(0)
This lesson is a series of examples aimed at students who have met Pie charts in earlier years. The lesson is aimed at re-enforcing the knowledge of pie charts through a series of worked examples. This presentation also includes a worksheet for students to attempt in class or as a piece of homework.
