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.

New GCSE grade 7 material: Test 2

(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 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. More tests will follow as I prepare them and then bundles will become available.
Reverse Percentages

(0)
This lesson demonstrates to students how we can find the original amount when a percentage has already been added on or subtracted off.
Stationary Points

Stationary Points

(0)
This lesson is an introductory lesson into finding stationary points for a quadratic or cubic. This lesson looks at finding the nature of the stationary points by change of gradient. The lesson concludes with a couple of slides with questions for the students to answer.
Solving Equations (more complicated)

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.
Pythagoras Theorem Introduction

Pythagoras Theorem Introduction

(0)
This is a power point presentation which introduces students to the knowledge of Pythagoras' Theorem. It includes many worked examples. I usually teach this over two lessons.
Area of a Triangle and Trapezium
sjcoopersjcooper

Area of a Triangle and Trapezium

(0)
These two PowerPoint presentations teach students how we find the area of a triangle and a trapezium. Now that students must learn the formula for the area of a trapezium I have shown how the formula is created through the knowledge of the area of a triangle. Through worked examples students learn how to apply these formulae.
Probability Sample Space

Probability Sample Space

(0)
A power point presentation covering examples of two event represented in a sample space diagram. Including how to use the diagrams to find the probabilities of two events occurring.
Decimal Places

This Lesson in a PowerPoint which introduces students to the topic of decimal places through a series of worked examples.
Division of Fractions

Division of Fractions

(0)
This lesson is a Powerpoint and Worksheet which I have used to teach students how to divide fractions. This lesson is taught once I have covered multiplication of fraction. Once the worked examples have been covered students are given the worksheet to either complete in class or as homework. Answers to the worksheet are also provided.
Subtraction of Fractions

Subtraction of Fractions

(0)
This lesson is a Powerpoint and Worksheet which I have used to teach students how to subtract fractions. This lesson is taught once I have covered addition of fraction. Once the worked examples have been covered students are given the worksheet to either complete in class or as homework. Answers to the worksheet are also provided.
The 3 by 3 Matrix

The 3 by 3 Matrix

(0)
This lesson introduces the students to the 3 x 3 matrix. Students learn how to calculate the determinant, the adjugate and hence the inverse of a 3 x 3 matrix.
Iterative Formulae
sjcoopersjcooper

Iterative Formulae

(0)
This lesson teachers students about the iterative formula. The ability to identify why there is a root between two points. The ability to generate an iterative formula. The presentation also demonstrates that not all iterative formulae work. The lesson follows with a worksheet for the students to attempt either in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
Types of roots : The Discriminant
sjcoopersjcooper

Types of roots : The Discriminant

(0)
This lesson looks closer at the value b^2 - 4ac and the types of roots the outcome would suggest. The lesson then looks at more algebraic problems.
GCSE Foundation Run around game 4

GCSE Foundation Run around game 4

(0)
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. 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!
