All my resources have been created to use with classes I teach. Often I've created resources because, for a particular topic, I haven't been happy with the number/standard of the examples in a textbook. Sometimes I've created worksheets for certain topics (e.g. graph transformations) because I feel my classes will make greater progress on a printed worksheet than trying to work from a textbook. I always aim to produce high-quality resources that improve the students' learning and understanding.

A "treasure hunt" activity on averages

(0)
Two versions (with/without frequency tables) of a treasure hunt activity for a class to attempt individually or in groups. There are 24 questions, numbered from 1 to 24. Each group chooses a number from 1 to 24 at random (or you can assign them a start number), and this is the number of the first question they should attempt - this should be written in the top-left circle on their answer grid. Their answer to their first question should be a whole number from 1 to 24 - this should be written in the next circle on their grid and this is the number of the next question they should attempt. e.g. if a group starts on Q6 and they think the answer to Q6 is 13 then after Q6 they should attempt Q13 (and they should have 6 -> 13 on their answer grid). If they answer the questions correctly they end up with the same chain of answers as on the solution, if they make a mistake they will repeat an earlier question and at that point you can decide how much help to give them sorting out their error(s). This activity works best if you can stick the 24 questions around a large classroom or sports hall so the groups have to run around to find their next question. All the classes I've done these activities with have loved them.

Resources to teach and practise using bubble sort (Decision maths D1 - OCR 4736)

(0)
After a few years of teaching sorting algorithms by creating and working through examples on the board I got sick of it and created these resources. They make it easy to introduce, work through some examples and then there is another worksheet full of examples for students to attempt where the fully-worked solutions are already done, making it easy to check. The printable worksheets mean that students don't need to copy down lists of numbers or create tables to work on - this means they can spend the time just practising using the algorithm. There is also the excel spreadsheet I created to generate examples - this can used to make as many more examples as you want (instructions are on the spreadsheet).

Trapezium rule worksheet to introduce and practise using it (new A level)

(0)
This worksheet makes it easy to introduce and teach the trapezium rule to your classes. The first page has diagrams to illustrate the method and the derivation of the formula is broken down into steps for you to work through with your class. Projecting all this is so much easier than drawing it out by hand. The trapezium rule formula is then stated at the top of page 2, followed by 3 pages of examples of examination-style questions that test the use of the formula and your students’ understanding (is the answer from the trapezium rule an underestimate or overestimate, can they use their answer to deduce an estimate for a related integral, etc). Answers to all the examples are provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

Area between curve and y-axis worksheet (integration)

(0)
This worksheet can be used to teach and practise the method for finding the area between a curve and the y-axis using integration. The questions are designed so that students practise rearranging the curve y=f(x) into x=g(y) and then integrate with respect to y. The first page introduces this method and then there are 2 examples to work through as a class. There are then 3 more pages of questions, all with diagrams, for your students to attempt. Answers are provided.
Graph transformations resources (new A level)

Graph transformations resources (new A level)

(0)
This set of resources includes everything you need to teach the graph transformations topic in the new A level. The printable resources will save you and your classes a lot of time which means there is more lesson time for them to practise and for you help develop their understanding. As the topic requires knowledge of the properties of some graphs (e.g. asymptotes) the first resource can be used to see which graphs they can already sketch and to discuss the asymptotes of particular graphs. The next resources are Geogebra files which can be used with the free Geogebra software. Each file can be used to discuss a particular type of graph transformation - there are sliders on each file that be changed or animated to see the initial graph transformed. This activity should help your class to visualise each type of transformation and start to get a feel for how the equation changes. The notes and examples start with revising each type of graph transformation - giving some different ways the transformations can be described and what the transformation looks like using y=f(x) and with a particular curve. Once completed this is a useful revision resource and helps them complete the exercise of questions on the reverse which includes questions asking for the new equation of a transformed graph, or for a description of the transformation applied. The final resource can be used to give your class practice of sketching transformations of y=f(x). The answers to all questions are included, including the sketches. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

This is a simple worksheet I created for my year 7 class to practise identifying different types of triangles and for them to work things out using their properties. The first page is to work through with your class to complete the notes on each type of triangle and its properties. This includes how sides of equal length may be indicated on a diagram. There is then a 2-page exercise for your class to attempt themselves. The questions include: State the type of triangle from its diagram and given information State the size of and unknown angle in a triangle (does NOT assume knowledge of angle sum being 180) State the type of triangle from some information about some of its sides/angles (no diagram) Considering what type(s) of triangle can contain, for example, an obtuse angle Answers to the exercise are included.
