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 !

The Equation of a Line - Powerpoint Presentation

(0)
This is two Powerpoint presentations, one for foundation level / Key stage 3 and the second is for higher level - they all show a line and asks for the equation of the line. In the first presentation he y intercept is always given so this reduces the it to Foundation Level at GCSE or Key Stage 3. The second presentation is higher level only as the intercept is not given and it includes questions involving perpendicular lines. There are over 30 straight line graphs, different scales have been used as well as negative gradients, vertical and horizontal lines. Great as a starter - slides can be removed if you wish.
