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.

The Cosine Rule

The Cosine Rule

(0)
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.
Circumference of a circle

Circumference of a circle

(0)
Lesson introduces students again to pi (as with the area resource). However this time students are able to work out the formula for the Circumference of a circle if they have already used my resource for the Area of a circle. The lesson has a variety of examples to be answered at the board and ends with a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
Area of a circle
sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a circle

(0)
A lesson introduces the students to pi. Students work out for themselves with little guidance that pi is approximately 3 or even 3.1. This also gives the teacher the opportunity to introduce the formula for the area of the circle. The follow up lesson also on this resource has several examples involving finding the areas of circles. The resource also contains a worksheet for students to answer either in class or as a piece of homework.
Angles in a triangle or quadrilateral

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!
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 GCSE Test Material grades 6 & 7
sjcoopersjcooper

New GCSE Test Material grades 6 & 7

4 Resources
These tests can be used to check whether students have met the standards required for topics which have been labelled as grade 6 or 7 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. The idea is that students will answer the questions on paper and/or graph paper.
New Grade 6 Material: Test 2 (Non calculator)

New Grade 6 Material: Test 2 (Non calculator)

(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.

Volume of revolution
sjcoopersjcooper

Volume of revolution

(0)
This lesson teaches the students how to find the volume of a curve that has been rotated through four right angles about the x-axis. This is done through a series of worked examples.
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.
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.
Solving simultaneous equations
sjcoopersjcooper

Solving simultaneous equations

(0)
This lesson revises with students how we can solve simultaneous equations by elimination and by substitution through worked examples. I have used this lesson in the past for year 12 AS students, however I have also used it as a revision lesson for year 11 students.
Arithmetic Progressions
sjcoopersjcooper

Arithmetic Progressions

(1)
This lesson furthers a students knowledge from GCSE of the arithmetic progression. It introduces the students to a formula used for the nth term and has a proof for the sum of n term. The lesson then has a series of worked examples.
Circular Measures: Radians, Arc length and area of a sector
sjcoopersjcooper

Circular Measures: Radians, Arc length and area of a sector

(0)
This lesson introduces students to the angle measure the Radian. There is a quick proof of the Area of a sector and arc length formulae. Followed by several worked examples on the use of these formulae. It is expected that students would have met the area of a triangle formula in trigonometry before this lesson.
Solving Trig equations continued.
sjcoopersjcooper

Solving Trig equations continued.

(0)
This lesson makes continued use of the CAST diagram for solving trig equations in a given range. The lesson is used to introduce the quadratics that we see in trig equations and the necessary trig identities needed to solve them.
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.
Integration by substitution
sjcoopersjcooper

Integration by substitution

(0)
This PowerPoint contains what I teach as two lessons. The first introduces students to the method of substitution whilst the second concludes this knowledge with worked examples with the definite integral.
Integration by Parts
sjcoopersjcooper

Integration by Parts

(0)
This PowerPoint is a lesson on integration by parts. I first demonstrate how the formula is a rearrangement of the product rule. I show the formula also in words as I find that students generally find this the easiest way to remember it. The lesson contains a number of worked examples for students to follow.
