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 !

This worksheet consists of 10 full A level standard questions using Rsin(x + a) etc. Most of these questions are in context as the standard questions are freely available in books etc. This is a thorough worksheet covering the topic in as many ways as we could think of - some are quite creative but all are relevant. An ideal ‘end of topic’ sheet, homework, classwork or revision task. Answers are included.

The Normal Distribution + Answers

(0)
This is a pair of PDF worksheets covering the introduction to the Normal distribution. The first sheet has approximately 30 questions, which boil down to using the calculator and standardization. Questions involve finding, p(z > a), p(x < a), finding the mean, the standard deviation and those questions that involve finding both. In total there are over 80 subquestions - this is a great resource for examples, homework and classwork - really too many questions. The second sheet is around 30 questions on practical applications of the Normal (modelling) - these boil down to the student needing to interpret worded questions into the basic format given in sheet 1 All answers are included.

Formulae needed are given on the sheet and answers are included. This is as good as they get before attempting full ‘A’ level questions. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Volume and Surface area of simple prisms for KS3 - with answers

(0)
This is a set of questions that I wrote to teach volume and / or surface area of cubes, cuboids and triangular prisms. The first few questions are essential for all students but the latter ones become difficult and I would set these as a challenge or maybe give each question to a group of children to discuss. I have included a simple table of densities as I would use the same set of questions when covering densities. - Which is heavier solid A made of Brass or solid B made of Steel etc. A simple worksheet but it will save you hours in preparation. Answers are provided as usual Please give feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you

Miscellaneous Series for Grade A / B with Answers

This is a bonus sheet of around 20 questions that I felt was necessary for higher grades at A level. Each question needs a bit more thought than simply following the routines and applying formulae. This set of questions are tricky but really well thought out - I have avoided large text problems - you need to get these from past papers so kept them brief but searching. Included is the A.Ps and G.Ps fact sheet too. Answers are included. Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.
Problems involving A.P.s and G.P.s + Answers
happymathematicianhappymathematician

Problems involving A.P.s and G.P.s + Answers

(0)
This pdf consists of 7 problems with Arithmetic and / or Geometric series in context. I have included an A.P and G.P fact sheet which may prove useful. Problems like this are not too common at ‘A’ level but they need to be taught so I always covered these 7 main points. A problem in context throws up interpretation problems which cannot occur with just algebra. I think this is an invaluable lesson. Answers are included.

Sampling and Sampling Methods - Notes for teachers and students with Questions

(0)
I have taught Statistics from GCSE level all the way up to Undergraduate level and have files of notes and questions that I have accumulated over the years and recently was asked to post my notes on Sampling as many students don’t get the finer points and most textbooks don’t cover them either. So here they are - I don’t think that the telephone directory is relevant so much to todays methods but have left it in for completeness. Hope that you find them useful.

Integration Using Partial Fractions - Over 20 Questions With Answers

(0)
This worksheet is a revision lesson on Integration with partial fractions, there are over 20 questions covering everything required on the recent syllabus. linear factors repeated factors top heavy fractions definite and indefinite integrals.

(1) and (2) have the same questions in a different format - and therefore the same answers. Please leave feedback, particularly If you like my work - thank you Answers are included.

The Probability Laws for 'A' Level - With answers

(0)
I always thought this was a topic that textbooks cover poorly and so I wrote this set of questions a few years ago and have used them regularly ever since. Covering all the laws, including Addition law, Multiplication law, exhaustive and independent events and conditional probability too - but only the algebraic approach. This is a topic that many students find difficult and so I have included a factsheet too (also available free) I hope you find it as useful as I do. Answers are included Please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you.

Sketching Polynomials - 26 Questions with Answers

(0)
One of the first topics to teach at ‘A’ level. I introduce the idea of asymptotes, double/triple roots and inflexion through this worksheet. 26 Questions - too many ! I use some for examples, some for classwork, some for homework and some are always left over for either revision or extra work for remedial study. Hope you find it useful - please leave feedback, particularly if you like my work - thank you. Answers are included.

Integration Using Logarithms - 20 Questions With Answers

(0)
This is a useful set of questions that every ‘A’ level student should be aware of. Although they can all be integrated by substitution, every student should be aware that f’(x)/f(x) integrates to give ln(fx) - and I always taught this as a sideline to the method of substitution - this crops up on exam papers every year without fail and students should be able to recognise it immediately. I have written 20 questions to practice this and all have answers - of the form that I would expect my students to give. I hope you find it useful. Please give feedback. particularly if you like my work - thank you. Answers are provided.
