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 PDF consists of six questions on reading bar charts.
Primarily its function was to enable me to discuss the different types of bar charts that they need to know about, and the type of questions that can come from bar charts.
I did not feel it necessary to ask several questions on each type as they are really straight forward.
I have covered compound and component bar charts as well as percentage bar charts.
Answers are included.

A great resource covering all that you will need in travel graphs
9 Distance time graphs to discuss and read information from - including a couple with curved graphs so pupils can estimate the gradient of a curve to find velocity. All the distance time graphs are in context and have realistic values (no more 14s bike rides !)
3 fitting the distance time graphs to the situation.
5 velocity time graphs including curves drawn large enough for you to be able teach area under a graph from
1 really good question on fitting 9 situations to their velocity time graphs.
This PDF consists of 10 full sized exam style questions on Cumulative Frequency Diagrams.
Aimed at higher level GCSE, these questions cover both drawing and reading cumulative frequency diagrams.
I have included a couple of questions involving curves but I have not asked for curves to drawn as I haven’t seen that at GCSE for about 15 years - instead I have provided the curves where necessary.
Answers are included.

This is a PDF consisting of 5 GCSE style questions which cover all that students need to understand about Box and Whisker diagrams.
The questions are on interpretation of the diagrams rather than drawing them so these worksheets were not intended as ‘write on’.
Answers are provided.

This PDF consists of 104 questions on indices.
It covers the rules of indices, fractional, negative and zero powers.
It was written for KS4 pupils and includes some difficult questions for grade 8/9 pupils.
Ideal for revision too.

I wrote this for a foundation class that I had once - It covers everything that I wanted to emphasize at lower levels. I then found it very useful to use parts of it for Key stage 3 too
Question one is looking at the basic ideas of indices - I did this as a mental exercise and stressed the powers of zero and one.
Question two is a little more demanding and I often used this as a paired exercise and asked the students to check their answers on the calculators.
Question three looks at the powers of a half, a third and negative one - nothing harder.
Question four is all about the 3 rules of indices
In total there are nearly 80 questions so this could take a full lesson, or a homework - I hope you find it useful.
Homework sheets are included

This pdf consists of 10 questions involving integration of higher functions - not polynomials.
Students are required to integrate by substitution, parts, trigonometry, exponentials and logarithms.
Applications are limited as the integration is the skill being tested, but applications include:
Integration as the reverse of differentiation,
Solving simple differential equations,
Areas.
I used to give this sheet as a revision sheet at the end of Integration in Y13 as each question requires a different method of integration as well as an application.
It proved to be a great sheet to talk through as well as practicing methods and techniques.
Answers are included as usual.

Applications of Integration 1
This is a very thorough worksheet covering the applications of integration for Year 12.
It is a pdf consisting of 10 questions in which all the equations reduce to powers of x.
Applications covered are:
Integration as the reverse of differentiation,
Area between a graph and the x axis,
Area between a graph and the y axis,
Area between a graph and a given line,
Area between two curves.
I devised this as a revision sheet for Year 12 - it is an excellent set of questions which covers everything that you need to know at this stage.

This PDF is a comprehensive worksheet covering errors in measurement and the resulting calculations.
Aimed at GCSE higher level, this topic is a requirement for all boards and has been covered every year.
20+ questions in all with plenty of parts to many questions, I used it to talk through the subject, give questions to all abilities at higher level in class and still had plenty of questions left for homework.
Answers are included

This PDF consists of 10 large questions (with well over 50 parts) on Factors, HCF and the Rules of Divisibility.
Aimed at year 7, the sheet was given as a class activity as there is an awful lot for each pupil to do - several hours of classwork / homework - I used it for working in pairs as this will take one student more than one or two lessons to complete.
Several of the questions were used as a springboard to discuss other ideas such as prime factors etc.
The sheet is extensive and thorough, covering everything your classes need to know about factors and their applications.
Questions asked include:
Factors
Prime Factors
Factors of Square Numbers
Factors of Prime Numbers
HCF
Rules of divisibility (not 5 or 10)
Answers are included.

This is all that you will need from the introduction of factors, multiples and primes all the way to GCSE level questions about the applications of HCF and LCM.
This worksheet covers the applications of the Product Of Primes, including HCF, LCM, square factors, square multiples and some basic problems too.
It consists of a PDF with over 30 questions on all that you need on HCF, LCM and the product of primes and its applications.
I used this with top set year 7 or year 8 and expected it to last at least two lessons and a homework.
Answers are included.
