The Resources within this shop are all designed for the teaching of Mathematics for those in the age range 7 - 18 years old. Most resources consist of a PowerPoint lesson followed by a worksheet for the students. With over twenty nine years of experience, the powerpoint/worksheets within the shop have been used successfully by myself and colleagues over that time. As a head of department for over 15 years, the department has yearly been judged as adding substantial value to students grades.

Pythagoras Theorem

(0)
This is a power point presentation which introduces students to the knowledge of Pythagoras' Theorem. Through worked examples students will firstly learn how to calculate the Hypotenuse side. The second lesson looks at finding one of the smaller sides. This purchase also includes two worksheets for students. Answers are included.
Area Under a Curve
sjcoopersjcooper

Area Under a Curve

(0)
The set of worked examples demonstrates how students can find an approximation for the area under a curve using the knowledge of area of a Trapezium. The lesson is accompanied with a worksheet for students to complete in class or as a piece of homework.
Introduction to Index Notation

Introduction to Index Notation

(0)
This lesson introduces students to the first two rules applied when multiplying or dividing numbers to given powers. The powerpoint consists of worked examples and concludes with a worksheet for the students to complete.
Multiplication of Number

Multiplication of Number

(0)
The worksheet can be used in class or as a piece of homework for student to demonstrate their ability to multiply two numbers together. Students could write on the sheet, however I often have them answer on paper or in their books.
Hyperbolic Functions

Hyperbolic Functions

(0)
This lesson introduces students to the understanding of Hyperbolic functions through a series of worked examples. Including the curves.
The CAST Diagram
sjcoopersjcooper

The CAST Diagram

(0)
I use this PowerPoint over two lessons. The first lesson introduces students to the CAST diagram. There is an assumption that students are already aware of the three trig curves. A series of examples follow where students find the exact value for the sin, cos or tan of certain angles. The second lesson looks at the definition of a negative angle. The lessons complete with examples of how the CAST diagram can be used to solve simple trig equations for a given range.
The Parabola
sjcoopersjcooper

The Parabola

(0)
This lesson looks at the Parabola from a Geometric point of view. Sketching the curve from knowing the vertex and key coordinates. The examples also involve some algebraic operations involved with the parabola.
Introduction to Bearings
sjcoopersjcooper

Introduction to Bearings

(1)
This lesson introduces students to Bearings. The lesson demonstrates how we measure a bearing through a series of examples. Followed by a number of examples where students will draw bearings. The last set of examples are more detailed with a set of instructions to follow in order to answer the question. The lessons are accompanied with two worksheets which can be completed in class or as a piece of homework.
Function of a function rule (chain rule)
sjcoopersjcooper

Function of a function rule (chain rule)

(0)
This lesson is an introduction to the more complicated differentiation. Using the knowledge of basic differentiation these examples introduce students to differentiation by substitution before using the rule. I teach this rule this way first before showing them the quick approach when teaching the product rule and quotient rule.
Introduction to Projectiles
sjcoopersjcooper

Introduction to Projectiles

(0)
This lesson is an introduction to projectiles. It is assumed that students are already familiar with the standard formulae used in kinematics when a body moves in one direction. I always start this lesson by throwing the board pen horizontally and students witness that it moves in two directions. We discuss the acceleration acting on the body and hence the first example is on this basis. I follow that up with some more worked examples before giving them a standard diagram for projectiles.
R Alpha Method
sjcoopersjcooper

R Alpha Method

(0)
This lesson introduces students to the R Alpha method. It is expected that the compound angles have been taught first. This lesson calls upon that knowledge and shows how this method is useful in a variety of situations.
Solving Equations (more complicated)
sjcoopersjcooper

Solving Equations (more complicated)

(0)
This lesson has a series of worked examples showing students how to solve more complicated linear equations and also quadratics. The lesson has been used in the past for year 12 students in September. However it can also be used for the more complicated questions required in year 11 work.
Surface Area
sjcoopersjcooper

Surface Area

(0)
This lesson looks at finding the surface area of shapes such as cuboids, square based pyramids, cylinders, cones and spheres. The lesson also shows a proof for the surface area formula of a cone. However for this students to understand this proof it is essential that they have already met arc length and area of a sector. The lesson contains a number of worked examples.
New Grade 6 Material: Test 1
sjcoopersjcooper

New Grade 6 Material: Test 1

(0)
This is a Test I will use to check whether my students have met the standards required for topics which have been labelled as grade 6 in the new GCSE. Clearly I have listed which topics are tested and students are given this list in advance so that they can revise the highlighted topics. More tests will follow as I prepare them and then bundles will become available.
Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral
sjcoopersjcooper

Angles in a triangle or 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!
Finding the nth term of a quadratic sequence
sjcoopersjcooper

Finding the nth term of a quadratic sequence

(0)
This power point teaches students how to find the nth term for any sequence which is quadratic. The method adopted in the power point can also be used for linear sequences. Note: The preview does not fully show the notations used in this power point. This only appears in full purchase.
Introduction to Algebra
sjcoopersjcooper

Introduction to Algebra

(0)
Introduction lesson to Algebra which involves the ability to collect like terms. The lesson consists of a number of worked examples. This is followed by a worksheet for students to complete either in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are provided.
