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.

This revision is pitched mainly at foundation students, however it is also ideal for higher level students.
Through worked examples the students revise the fact of multiplying "branches" together in order to obtain an outcome for two event.
Further examples look at when there are more than two possible outcomes which would imply we add the solutions together.
Nicely broken up for a student who is probably struggling with the grade 5 work. There are also several questions for the students to attempt in-between the examples. Answers are provided.
This lesson is used to introduce students to perpendicular lines. Finding the gradient of a perpendicular line and the equation of such lines.
The lesson is followed with a worksheet which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
These two revision lessons look at rearranging formulae for Foundation students and changing units.
The changing units revision deals with cm, m, km and kg. It also looks at km/h to m/s and vice versa.
This revision powerpoint looks at worked examples for the topics of Completing the square and solving quadratics inequalities. The second revision lesson looks at iterative formulae and quadratic sequences.
The idea is that the member of staff works through 2 or 3 examples before the student attempts one question at a time. The review of the question then reinforces the students understanding of the topics.
This bundle consists of the four lessons on Addition, Subtraction, Multiplication and division of fractions. Each lesson consists of a powerpoint lesson, worksheet and Answers.
This lessons introduces the younger students to the first three laws of indices. Through worked examples students develop their understanding of the quick methods used.
The lesson is backed up with a worksheet which can be completed in class or as a piece of homework. I used this lesson with a very low ability year 8 class this week and it worked really well.
This powerpoint presentation introduces students to the understanding of area ratio and volume ratio when considering similar shapes. Through a series of worked examples students become more confident with answering such questions.
The lesson concludes with a worksheet which can be answered in class or given as a homework.
This bundle is all the lessons I use for introducing circle theorems to a class. I have included the proofs of circle theorems which I tend to use with the higher groups only.
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 higher level new GCSE specification. Answers are also attached. A great way to identify whether students are solid on the topics selected.
This lesson demonstrates the various ways in which a direct proportion question could be worded. Then through a series of worked examples, students learn how to answer questions involving direct proportion.
The lesson contains a worksheet and answers which can be completed in class or set as a piece of homework.
This bundle is a collection of lessons that I tend to use in year 8 or 9 to teach students direct and inverse proportion. Starting with numerical problems before looking at the more algebraic problems that we see at GCSE
This lesson is demonstrates through worked examples how Venn diagrams can be used to obtain the probability of a given event.
The lesson also has a worksheet attached.
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 1 to 4 and table for questions 13 to 16
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 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 PowerPoint lesson looks at equivalent fractions through worked examples of areas shaded. The lesson is backed up with a worksheet for pupils to answer either in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
These two lessons teach students how to
1. Bisect a line
2. Bisect an Angle
3. Drop a perpendicular to a line
4. construct a 60 degree angle
5. construct a 90 degree angle
6. construct the 30 and 45 degree angle
7. construct 75 and 120 degree angles.
The lessons also include worksheets for the students to attempt in class or as a piece of homework.
Answers are included.

Following on from the lessons which introduce trigonometry to students. These two lessons consist of worked examples using the three trig ratios developed in either year 9 or 8.
The introduction lessons are in my shop. I have used this lesson with year 10, having already introduced trigonometry to these students in year 9.
This lesson is used in lower school to introduce students to the gradient of a straight line by calculation. The lesson then looks at the general equation of the line. Acknowledging that m stands for the gradient and c the y intercept.
There is a worksheet attached to this lesson which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. Answers are included.
