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.

Partial Fractions (Using the coverup rule)

Partial Fractions (Using the coverup rule)

(0)
This short series of examples demonstrates how we can use the coverup rule to quickly place a given algebraic fraction into partial fractions. The examples also includes areas where partial fractions is useful.
Reverse Percentages

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.
Introduction to Projectiles

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.
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.
Pythagoras Theorem Introduction
sjcoopersjcooper

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.
Subtracting numbers

Subtracting numbers

(0)
This lesson shows younger children how to subtract numbers when using the column method. Each example is worked through and students can see clearly each step. There are plenty of examples so that children can grasp the techniques involved. The latter examples involve an element of literacy to the question.
Addition of Number worksheet
sjcoopersjcooper

Addition of Number worksheet

(0)
The worksheet can be used in class or as a piece of homework for student to demonstrate their ability to add number together. Students could write on the sheet, however I often have them answer on paper or in their books.
Drawing other standard graphs

Drawing other standard graphs

(0)
This lesson is a follow on from the lessons involving drawing the quadratic curve. The lesson consists of a couple of worked examples on drawing standard curves, followed by information about some standard graphs and their shape. The lesson also has an worksheet for students to tackle in class or as a piece of homework.
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.
Removal of Two brackets multiplied together
sjcoopersjcooper

Removal of Two brackets multiplied together

(0)
This lesson is an extension from the first lesson on removing a bracket with a common factor outside. The lesson starts with more complicated examples from the previous lesson, before moving onto the trinomial problems. The lesson also contains a worksheet with answers.
Multiplication Tables Game

Multiplication Tables Game

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.
Touching circles

Touching circles

(0)
This is the third of three lessons on circles aimed at Advanced level. This lesson looks at circle touching externally or internally.
The indefinite integral
sjcoopersjcooper

The indefinite integral

(0)
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.
Circle Centre (a, b) radius r
sjcoopersjcooper

Circle Centre (a, b) radius r

(0)
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.
Standard Integrals
sjcoopersjcooper

Standard Integrals

(0)
A lesson teaching students the general integrals they need to know for the A2 material of calculus. A worksheet is also attached which can be used as classwork or as a piece of homework.
Calculus Lesson2: Differentiation by rule
sjcoopersjcooper

Calculus Lesson2: Differentiation by rule

(0)
This lesson is a follow on from the lesson on differentiation by first principles. Following that lesson and homework, students should by now have realised a shorter approach with differentiation. This lesson develops that understanding, whilst still remaining with the positive power. There is an assumption here that they would have met Tangents and Normals to the curve through their geometry work. The lesson also contains a worksheet for students to work through.

3D objects

(0)
Lessons which teach students the properties of Prisms, Pyramids and the Sphere. Including symmetry. This purchase also includes a worksheet for the students to complete.
