All my resources have been created to use with classes I teach. Often I've created resources because, for a particular topic, I haven't been happy with the number/standard of the examples in a textbook. Sometimes I've created worksheets for certain topics (e.g. graph transformations) because I feel my classes will make greater progress on a printed worksheet than trying to work from a textbook. I always aim to produce high-quality resources that improve the students' learning and understanding.

Binomial expansions (new A level maths)

(0)
This 26-page resource covers all the required knowledge and techniques for binomial expansions with positive integer powers, as required for the new AS level. In every section it contains notes, explanations and examples to work through with your class followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The types of questions included in the examples and exercises are: 1.Expand (ax+b)^n or (a+bx)^n 2.Find first 3 terms, in ascending powers of x, of the expansion of (a+bx)^n 3.Find the coefficient of x^k in the expansion of (a+bx)^n 4.Given the coefficient of x^k in the expansion of (a+bx)^n, find the value of a (or b). 5.Evaluating or simplifying nCr without a calculator 6.Given that (1+ax)^n = … find the value of n 7.Expand (ax+b)^n, hence expand (cx+d)(ax+b)^n 8.Use the first 3 terms of an expansion of (a+bx)^n to estimate k^n In all there are over 100 questions in the various exercises for your students to work through. This projectable and printable resource will save you having to create or write out any notes/examples when teaching the topic, and will make things easier for your students as they can just work directly on the given spaces provided for solutions. Answers to all exercises are included. Also included is a 16-question assessment that can be used as a homework or a test. Fully worked solutions are provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186
Proof by contradiction (new A level maths)

Proof by contradiction (new A level maths)

(1)
This short worksheet can be used to deliver the topic of proof by contradiction in the new A level specification for all exam boards. A useful resource to help deliver this new topic - fully worked solutions are included for all examples and questions in the exercise. It begins with 5 examples to work through with your class (the full proofs are given in the teacher’s version). The examples are carefully chosen so that, for the final example, students have seen the results/techniques they need to prove that the square root of 5 is irrational. Students are expected to be familiar with a proof of the infinity of primes, so on the next page this proof is given in full, together with some numerical examples that should help students understand part of its argument. There is then an exercise with 9 questions for students to attempt themselves (full proofs provided). A homework/test is also included (7 questions), with fully-worked solutions provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186
Euler's formula for faces, edges, vertices of a polyhedron

Euler's formula for faces, edges, vertices of a polyhedron

(0)
I have found plenty of resources to help students find Euler’s formula, but couldn’t find any where students can practise using it - so I made one! This worksheet starts by reminding them of the result and then there are a few examples to work through with your class, followed by an exercise with 16 questions of increasing difficulty. Note - some of the questions involve use of (basic) algebra

Differentiation and integration with exponential and trigonometric functions (new A level maths)

(5)
This 13-page resource introduces basic differentiation and integration of exponential and trigonometric functions (in the A2 part of the new A level). The calculus work does NOT require chain rule, product rule, quotient rule, integration by parts… etc In every section it contains notes then examples to work through with your class, followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The sections are: 1.Differentiation of e^x and ln(x) 2.Differentiation of trigonometric functions (sin, cos and tan only) 3.Integration of e^x, 1/x, and trigonometric functions (sin and cos only) This projectable and printable resource will save you having to write out any notes/examples or draw any graphs when teaching the topic, and will make things easier for your students as they can just work directly on the given diagrams and spaces provided for solutions. Note: some examples with trigonometric functions require knowledge of radians, double and compound angle identities, and small angle approximations.
Graph transformations worksheet (reflections)
MathsWorksheetMasterMathsWorksheetMaster

Graph transformations worksheet (reflections)

(0)
I've always thought that graph transformations is a difficult topic to teach well from a textbook, that's the reason I created these worksheets so my classes could practise sketching the transformations without having to draw axes or try to copy the original curve. This worksheet has examples and an exercise which focuses on reflections but some questions also involve translations. The examples are designed to work through as a class and then the rules for the different reflections can be completed. There are 7 pages of questions for students to complete, including sketching the transformed graph and stating the equation of a transformed graph. All answers are included - I usually project these so that the whole class can check their answers.

Graph transformations worksheet (stretches)

(0)
I've always thought that graph transformations is a difficult topic to teach well from a textbook, that's the reason I created these worksheets so my classes could practise sketching the transformations without having to draw axes or try to copy the original curve. This worksheet has examples and an exercise on stretches. The examples are designed to work through as a class and then the rules for the different stretches can be completed. There are 6 pages of questions for students to complete, including sketching the stretched graph, stating the equation of a stretched graph and stating the new coordinates of a point on the original graph. All answers are included - I usually project these so that the whole class can check their answers. Please note this topic is not in the new GCSE spec.

Algebraic fractions worksheet
MathsWorksheetMasterMathsWorksheetMaster

Algebraic fractions worksheet

(0)
A worksheet with 30 questions on equations involving algebraic fractions. In each question the equations must be rearranged to reach a quadratic equation. In later questions the quadratic equation must also be solved (using the quadratic formula). A good resource for a demanding higher tier GCSE topic. All answers provided.
Similar shapes (lengths, areas and volumes)

Similar shapes (lengths, areas and volumes)

(0)
The first worksheet introduces the topic of similar shapes and then has 7 pages of questions about scale factors and the lengths of sides of similar shapes (answers included). The second resource is intended to be worked through as a class, with each student/group completing it using different values but establishing the same rules about scale factors for areas and volumes of similar shapes. The third resource is a short worksheet on areas and volumes (answers included).
A "treasure hunt" activity on averages

A "treasure hunt" activity on averages

(0)
Two versions (with/without frequency tables) of 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.
Cumulative frequency and box and whisker plot worksheets

Cumulative frequency and box and whisker plot worksheets

(0)
These worksheets make teaching/revising these diagrams easier as you can project the axes/diagrams onto a board and your class can work directly on or from the provided axes/diagram. The worksheet on cumulative frequency is a 6 page document where students get to practise drawing cumulative frequency diagrams and deducing information from them, such as median, interquartile range etc. The second worksheet introduces how box and whisker plots are drawn and how to interpret them or use them to compare two sets of data. The third worksheet provides more practice of box and whisker diagrams but then also includes some questions involving cumulative frequency, as these diagrams often appear together in examination questions. Answers to all the worksheets are included.

Once your group has learned the rules for simplifying, manipulating and rationalising these resources are great for revising all the knowledge and skills they need. The revision sheet has 4 pages of questions covering all the expected skills at GCSE level for this topic - fully worked solutions are included. The worksheet/homework contain examination-style questions. I use the first worksheet as examples in class and then the second sheet can be used as a homework. The test is 3 pages long and covers the basic skills up to some demanding examination-style questions. A mark scheme with worked answers is included.
Resolving forces - worksheet to teach and practise this skill (Mechanics 1)

Resolving forces - worksheet to teach and practise this skill (Mechanics 1)

(2)
I found it time-consuming tryingto teach my classes how to resolve forces by drawing diagrams on the board and asking them to copy them down - it seemed to take ages and they didn't get to work through that many examples themselves. So I created this worksheet with ready-made diagrams with all the forces and a blank copy of diagram for students to add on the resolved forces. I no longer dread teaching this skill and my classes get a lot more done in the lesson time. The worksheet starts with an introductory explanation and a worked example. There are then over 20 questions for students to attempt. Fully worked solutions are included.
Types of triangles (isosceles, equilateral, scalene)

Types of triangles (isosceles, equilateral, scalene)

(5)
This is a simple worksheet I created for my year 7 class to practise identifying different types of triangles and for them to work things out using their properties. The first page is to work through with your class to complete the notes on each type of triangle and its properties. This includes how sides of equal length may be indicated on a diagram. There is then a 2-page exercise for your class to attempt themselves. The questions include: State the type of triangle from its diagram and given information State the size of and unknown angle in a triangle (does NOT assume knowledge of angle sum being 180) State the type of triangle from some information about some of its sides/angles (no diagram) Considering what type(s) of triangle can contain, for example, an obtuse angle Answers to the exercise are included.
