I teach sixth form maths students so most of my resources are aimed at A level maths. I have recently updated my resources to cover the new A level maths syllabus and I have produced PowerPoints that fully cover all of the new A level maths course. I also use a large a large amount of Notebook presentations because they are more flexible that PowerPoint. I have put a free resource on for you to try to show how the presentations work you can open it online using SMART Notebook Express website.

A selection of presentations and activities that introduce vectors by getting the students to draw basic column vectors and discovering parallel and perpendicular vectors. This leads on to scalar product and finding the angle between 2 vectors. The other large presentation shows students how to write an equation of a line in parametric form. It includes activities like finding intersection points. It also covers skew lines and finding the closest distance between a point and a line.
