I am now a retired teacher having taught for over 40 years in the UK at secondary level. I wanted to share my love of Mathematics and teaching by providing a good set of resources which will more than cover all your needs for as many topics as I can and at good value for money. I am trying to cover many topics from foundation level GCSE up to grade 9 at higher level in a way that is interesting and relevant. I hope you like my style !

Trig Identities for 'A' Level

Trig Identities for 'A' Level

(0)
This is a collection of almost 50 Trig identities that I have collected over the years. They are not in order of difficulty but I see no reason why an ‘A’ level groups should not work through them as a collective group effort. - there’s a good idea for a lesson. Obviously answers are not included but all identities have been checked. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.
Applications Of Differentiation Part 1

Applications Of Differentiation Part 1

(0)
This is a pdf consisting of 25 assorted questions on the applications of differentiation. All the algebra can be reduced to polynomials only. Topics covered include Gradient of a curve Increasing and deceasing functions Tangents and Normals Turning Points (including points of inflexion) Simple maxima and minima problems Curve sketching These problems range in difficulty and some are quite challenging - definitely good for revision or, as I have used it, to finish off differentiation at the end of year 12. Answers are included - as always Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you
Miscellaneous Differentiation - With Answers

Miscellaneous Differentiation - With Answers

(0)
This is a PDF consisting of over 60 questions on differentiation. Questions are miscellaneous involving Product, Quotients, and Compound Functions and even some implicit differentiation I originally wrote this worksheet as a revision exercise but eventually incorporated as a starter - 3 questions per lesson. Due to the difficulty of some of the questions I re-wrote the sheet and have put the two together as one making for a huge number of differentiation questions. some are quite demanding but, if students can do these then they can do anything. I have included the standard differentiation fact sheet as a bonus. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.
Applications Of Differentiation Part 2

(0)
This PDF consists of over 20 questions on the applications of differentiation These questions are aimed at revision in year 13. Questions assume knowledge of all the basic differentials along with product / quotient and chain rules. Applications include: * Gradient of a curve * Tangents and normals * Turning points * Maxima and minima problems * Rates of change * Related rates of change. Answers are included as usual. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you

Implicit Differentiation Worksheet + Answers

(0)
This PDF consists of around 25 questions based on implicit differentiation. The first 18 are finding expressions for the first derivative in terms of x and y and then I have included 6 or 7 on the applications of differentiation - using the implicit method. I have included one or two where second derivatives are required - just for fun. This is a very thorough worksheet which can be used when teaching the topic or as a revision sheet.

Differentiation Using The Quotient Rule

(0)
This is a cracking worksheet with almost 30 questions on every aspect of differentiation using the quotient rule. There is a large number of questions on using the quotient rule - some of these mix the chain rule or the product rule in too, and then there are a few involving the applications of differentiation. This pdf is an excellent resource for revising the Quotient Rule. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you
Differentiation of Composite Functions + Answers

Tangent and Normals at 'A' Level - with answers

(0)
This PDF consists of 21 questions on Tangents and Normals and nothing else - I have avoided mixing this exercise with any other topic. The first 8 questions involve only polynomial differentiation and questions 9 - 20 require product rule, quotient rule and chain rule. Q21 even involves Implicit Differentiation ! I have included the free STANDARD DIFFERENTIALS sheet which always proves useful. It is a thorough worksheet and answers are included. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

This is an excellent set of questions aimed at revision of Standard differentials - that’s those that you should know by heart. Many are on formulae sheets and booklets but there is no substitute for practice. There are two pdf’s here - the first is the fact sheet that I give to all students covering all the standard integrals and differentials. The second is over 30 questions on standard differentiation - including some basic applications. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you

Differentiation of Polynomials - with Answers

(0)
This PDF contains over 60 questions on the differentiation of polynomials. Question 1 - has 26 parts, each on the differentiation of polynomials including negative and fractional powers. Question 2 - 21 questions, the focus of these questions are functions that need to be rearranged into polynomials prior to differentiation. The third sheet is a set of questions on the application and interpretation of the differentiation of polynomials. This is a very thorough set of questions that I use in year 12, but is also used for revision. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you

Solving Linear Equations Without Brackets Worksheet - 100+ Qs answers included

(0)
This PDF contains over 100 questions on linear equations without brackets. I used this for all classes. At KS3 I may only use the first half of each question and allow the more able student to attempt the second half. At KS4 I used it for revision and simply asked students to go down one column. Each set of questions gets progressively harder and answers. Question 1 - 26 parts of the form ax = b - latter answers include negatives Question 2 - 26 parts of the form a + x = b or a - x = b - latter answers include negative Question 3 - 26 parts of the form ax + b = c or even b - ax = c - latter answers include negatives Question 4 - 26 parts of the form ax + b = cx + d and harder - latter answers include negatives. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Worded Questions on Linear Equations - with answers

(0)
This PDF is a set of 20 worded questions and practical situations which lead to linear equations. These questions were aimed at Year 10 and they are basically straight forward, but students often find this type of question to be difficult and will find these questions are a little challenging. 20 questions with great variety. Answers are included. Please provide feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Factorisation for Higher GCSE - With Answers

Factorisation for Higher GCSE - With Answers

(0)
This is a set of questions which mixes the three forms of factorisation. Aimed at GCSE top level students - stretching the more able, this worksheet is not for your average Higher level students. I use this as a source of questions and occasionally a classwork for the best classes. The PDF consists of two questions each with 26 parts. Question 1 starts with a mixture of common factors, quadratics and the difference of two squares and then gets progressively harder - take out common factors followed by quadratics etc. Question 2 consists of 26 fractions where the numerator and the denominator will factorise by some method and then cancel down. It took a while to write this one so I hope it is of use to people. Answers are included
