Right Angled Trigonometry Workbook

(1)
This workbook can be used with the Power point set. It introduces students to labeling up a triangle. Investigate the Sine ratio, Cosine ratio and Tangent ratio. The booklet has a variety of worksheets for each of these individually before mixing it up a little. The booklet then concludes with students having questions where they have to find the labeled angle. The booklet can be printed as an A5 booklet, which I find is easily placed in their books.
Geometric Progressions

Geometric Progressions

(1)
This lesson has several worked examples introducing students to the geometric series. The lesson ends with a worksheet which can be printed for students to answer in class or as a piece of homework. Recent update includes on extra example.
Further Trigonometry worksheets

Further Trigonometry worksheets

(0)
This booklet extends from the introduction of trigonometry. The book has a series of worksheets covering Pythagoras or Right angled trigonometry for 3D objects. The booklet then has worksheets on the Sine rule, The Cosine rule and then The area of a triangle.
Angles in a Triangle & Angles in a Quadrilateral

Angles in a Triangle & Angles in a 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!
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.
Cumulative Frequency

Cumulative Frequency

(1)
Lesson introduces students to Cumulative Frequency and ability to estimate the Median and Interquartile range from it. The lesson has a series of worked examples before ending with a large worksheet for students to complete.
The Cosine Rule
sjcoopersjcooper

The Cosine Rule

(1)
Lesson introduces students to the Cosine Rule formula which can be used for a variety of triangles. The lesson then has a series of worked examples before ending with a a number of questions for students to complete.
Problems with Quadratics (including Fractions)
sjcoopersjcooper

Problems with Quadratics (including Fractions)

(0)
The series of worked examples look at factorising and its uses. The examples address the ability to simplify algebraic fractions by factorising. There are then several questions for the students to then answer.
The Sine Rule
sjcoopersjcooper

The Sine Rule

(1)
Lesson introduces students to the Sine Rule formula which can be used for a variety of triangles. The lesson then has a series of worked examples before ending with a a number of questions for students to complete. The worksheet has answers with it.
Completing the Square & Quadratic Formula
sjcoopersjcooper

Completing the Square & Quadratic Formula

(0)
These two lessons cover the topics of completing the square and using the quadratic formula solving quadratics. The worked examples also include a proof of the quadratic formula through completing the square. After a series of worked examples there are questions for the students to complete.

(0)
This lesson looks at the integration required when finding the length of section of curve. Through worked examples students will be able understand how the formula is used.
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.
Differential Equations
sjcoopersjcooper

Differential Equations

(0)
This lesson is an introduction to differential equations which is required at Core 4 level and also in the later mechanics work. There are several worked examples which demonstrate how to separate he variables and then use their knowledge of integration.
