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.

Here are two papers for mathematics examinations aimed at calculator for foundation and higher.
These papers can not be obtained by students on the internet. Hence are ideal for end of term (or year) assessments.
Solutions are included.
This lesson follows the lessons taught on differentiation. The opening slide introduces integration as the reverse of differentiation. Then through a variety of examples students get used to integration.
These two lessons introduce students to the vector equation of a straight line.
Then the second lesson looks at lines which are either parallel, intersecting or skew.
This lesson is the second of three lessons on circles. Extending from the circle with centre (0,0) this lesson looks at obtaining the equation of the circle when the centre is elsewhere and a variety of other examples.
This lesson introduces students to long division for algebraic fractions.
I usually teach this lesson before the lessons on factor and remainder theorem.
Here are two papers for mathematics examinations aimed at non calculator for foundation and higher.
These papers can not be obtained by students on the internet. Hence are ideal for end of term (or year) assessments.
Solutions are included.
Excellent resource for the last term approaching summer holidays.
Great fun revision of topics including fractions, percentages, ratio and algebra.
Answers are included.
These two lessons are my first two lessons introducing students to a vector. The definition of a vector quantity and knowledge of position vectors, column vector, magnitude of a vector and collinear points.
Also through a variety of examples students learn how vectors are used.
GCSE Higher level Mathematics run around game
This activity is aimed at Higher level students who are revising for their GCSE examination.
Each round consists of four questions. Print the slides 8 to 13 on A4 paper and place one printed slide per table. (For a higher level set this may need printing more than once)
Students are put into pairs (either by choice or teacher selection) and are given a copy of slide 14 and a few sheets of pieces of A4 paper.
The pairs are designated a starting table and the timer (slide 2) is started. The students are then given 5 minutes to answer the four questions on that table. Once the five minutes is up the students move clockwise to the next table and start the next set of four questions and the timer of slide 3 is started. This continues until all students have completed the six tables worth of questions.
The answering of the questions takes no more than 30 minutes. Students then remain at their final table, swap their answer sheet with the nearest table and the answers are produced. At this stage I go through the questions before revealing the answers. In this way the students have had a go at GCSE style Higher level questions and have also seen a demonstration as to how they should have been answered.
Finally, students add up their score and the highest score get a prize!
Snap or Pairs
Here is a printable set of cards which can be used for one of two games.
Snap
The 54 cards are shuffled and divided equally between two students.
Students then turn the cards up one at a time and work out the multiplication (or division) on that card.
If that card matches the card on top of another player’s pile, the player who says “snap” first wins the pile of cards.
The winner is the person who ends up with the entire pile of cards. Or if you choose to end the game earlier, the player with the most cards.
Pairs
Alternatively, all 54 cards are placed face down. Players then take it in turns to turn over two cards and work out the value for each card.
If the two cards have matching answers the player puts the two cards in front of them as winning cards. This process is continued until all cards have been matched.
The winner of the game is the person with the most cards in front of them.
This document is a revision booklet I put together for my students over the years. It contains worked examples and notes describing how certain problems are solved.
Following the Dozen questions theme, attached here are two more worksheets with the same theme. Each worksheet has 12 questions based on the material for the foundation level new GCSE specification. Answers are also attached. A great way to identify whether students are solid on the topics selected.
This lesson is taught once students have a firm understanding of solving simultaneous equations through elimination. Through worked examples students learn how to solve simultaneous equations by the substitution method. Further examples demonstrate its use when looking at points of intersection with a curve and a line.
The lesson is completed with a worksheet which can be answered in class or as a piece of homework. (Answers are included)
This lesson I teach to student in key stage 3 who have never met the definition of the mode or median before. The lesson is accompanied with a worksheet which can be used in class or as a piece of homework.
GCSE Foundation Mathematics run around game 2
This activity is aimed at Foundation students who are revising for their GCSE examination.
Each round consists of four questions. Print the slides 8 to 13 on A4 paper and place one printed slide per table.
Students are put into pairs (either by choice or teacher selection) and are given a copy of slide 14 and a few sheets of pieces of A4 paper.
The pairs are designated a starting table and the timer (slide 2) is started. The students are then given 5 minutes to answer the four questions on that table. Once the five minutes is up the students move clockwise to the next table and start the next set of four questions and the timer of slide 3 is started. This continues until all students have completed the six tables worth of questions.
For this run around calculators are placed on the table for questions 5 to 8, table for questions 13 to 16 and table for questions 21 to 24.
The answering of the questions takes no more than 30 minutes. Students then remain at their final table, swap their answer sheet with the nearest table and the answers are produced. At this stage I go through the questions before revealing the answers. In this way the students have had a go at GCSE style foundation questions and have also seen a demonstration as to how they should have been answered.
Finally, students add up their score and the highest score get a prize!
