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.

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
These resources deal with problems where 2 or more items are chosen at random, we are given the probability of a particular outcome, and this is used to derive a quadratic equation that then needs to be solved.
The first resource can be used to teach the topic. It is in two sections - section A deals with selection with replacement, section B deals with selection without replacement. In each section there are 2 examples to work through with the class, followed by an exercise with more than 10 questions of increasing difficulty for the class to attempt themselves. Fully worked solutions to the examples and exercises are included.
The second resource is another set of questions that can be used as a homework or revision - 8 questions that are a mixture of with/without replacement.
Also included is a spreadsheet that calculates the probabilities for all outcomes in situations where there are between 5 and 40 items - just in case your class loves this topic and wants more questions!
This worksheet focuses on quadratic expressions where the question requires the candidate to show that the expression is always positive, never negative, etc.
There is an introductory activity where students practise thinking about expressions of the form ax^2 + b, or a(x-b)^2 + c - doing a quick sketch of the graph and then deciding whether they are always positive, never negative, always negative or never positive.
Next is a page of example proofs to work through with your class, followed by an exercise with 15 questions for your class to attempt themselves.
Fully worked solutions to the examples and the exercise are included.
A simple resource to give your class practice of finding the area of a shape by counting squares.
It has brief notes and examples at the start, then an exercise with 18 questions for students to attempt (answers included).
The shapes are squares, rectangles, triangles and compound shapes using these 3 shapes (so no circles or parts of circles).
Together, these resources cover all aspects of using numerical methods for trying to find roots of equations, as required for the new A level specification.
This 11-page resource covers the different techniques for using integration to find the size of areas, as required for the new A 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.Area between a curve and the x-axis where some/all of the curve is below the x-axis
2.Area enclosed between two graphs
3.Area between a curve and the y-axis
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.
