A fantastic collection of 135 Powerpoint Presentations to explain Maths Topics at KS4. An invaluable resources for your entire teaching career. Some key features: • Number, Algebra, Shape, Handling Data, Ratio, Measures are all included. • Powerpoints clearly explain topics, with examples. • Work through explanations can be used by teacher, or pupil to work on their own. • Variable numbers of slides depending on topics. Some topics have a few slides, others have up to 30 or so. • Save time planning explanations. • Make topics clear and easy for pupils to understand. This price is for one individual user (Unless you purchase the full school licence), and at less than 50p per powerpoint, this offers exceptional value. I’ll only keep them at this price for a short time, to allow everyone to be able to afford these. You can also purchase a school licence here. I’ve included some PDFs which show up in the preview, so that you can see a slide from each of the powerpoints, and there’s also a list of all the presentations available. All the powerpoints are available individually in my shop should you wish to purchase an individual one. You may be interested in a couple of my free resources (Created a while ago, and not necessarily the same format): [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/fidget-spinner-maths-free-version-11899468] [https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/christmas-maths-powerpoints-3-free-powerpoints-11789606]
