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.

Arc length & Area of a sector

(0)
These two PowerPoints are designed to teach students how to find the arc length of a circle or the area of a sector. The assumption is that students will already know how tho find the area of a circle and the circumference of a circle. Through worked examples students learn how to work out the area of a sector or the length of an arc.
Addition of Fractions

Addition of Fractions

This lesson is a Powerpoint and Worksheet which I have used to teach students how to add fractions together. This lesson is taught once I have covered equivalent fraction. Once the worked examples have been covered students should be given the worksheet to either complete in class or as homework. A Brexit question involving a village turn out for the referendum is a recent addition. Answers to the worksheet are also provided.
Calculating the mean

Calculating the mean

(0)
This Powerpoint consists of a variety of worked examples which demonstrate how we can calculate the mean. I use this lesson with students who have probably met the topic before but require a revisit to the topic. I usually use this lesson before I introduce student to the "fx" column and therefore questions involving the frequency table.

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.
Bar Charts

Bar Charts

(0)
This lesson I usually teach to the younger students. I prefer to drawn horizontal bar charts as the labelling is much easier to represent. However there are examples of vertical bar charts in the powerpoint and worksheet. One of the slides is designed to carry out a tally chart in class. Once the tally has been collected you can place the information into the next slide and a horizontal bar chart for the live data will be presented.

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 Grades (1 - 5). Answers are also attached. A great way to identify whether students are solid on the topics selected.
Angles at a point

Angles at a point

(0)
This lesson and worksheet teaches students, through worked examples, how to work out missing angles when drawn around a point by calculation. This Powerpoint is used for students who struggle with Mathematics or as an introduction for younger students. The worksheet also has an answer sheet provided. I have updated the background of the slides to be more user friendly for students with dyslexia. Many more lessons available in the shop https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/sjcooper
Equivalent Fractions

Equivalent Fractions

(0)
This lesson is intended for younger students, when first meeting the notion of equivalent fractions. The powerpoint consists of examples where shapes have the same amount shaded areas but divided into different amounts. Hence students can see equivalent fractions as being "the same" or better still equal through area shaded. The lesson also contains a worksheet with answers to backup the lesson.

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.

GCSE Mathematics Revision Game 6

GCSE Mathematics Revision Game 6

(0)
GCSE Run around Game 6 This game is aimed at foundation students who have just been revising certain topics. Topics covered in this game are Sequences nth term Solving equations Dividing into a given ratio Factorising Decimals. 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!

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.
