This lesson looks at rearranging formulae pitched at higher level. This lesson also includes the finding the inverse function of f(x) by rearrangement.
GCSE Mathematics : Exact Trig Values
sjcoopersjcooper

GCSE Mathematics : Exact Trig Values

(0)
This lesson teaches students the exact trig values for the sin cos and tan of 30, 45, 60 and 90 degrees. The lesson shows two ways to remember the values by either table or triangles. The lesson is also accompanied with several worksheets. The idea being that one worksheet is given at the end of teaching the lesson for students to demonstrate what they now know. Then throughout the year or two further worksheets can be given to check on them retaining the information taught.

Assembly on Remembrance Day

(0)
This is an assembly that I put together for my form to deliver to their year group in assembly. Each student was given a sentence to deliver and the slides were advanced at the appropriate speed. The picture of William and is family was taken in 1915 prior to him leaving to join the battle. William was killed in action in 1917.
Mathematics Sequences worksheet generator

Mathematics Sequences worksheet generator

(0)
This spreadsheet will generate infinite worksheets for either linear sequences or quadratic sequences. The spreadsheet will also provide the answers. Once the sheet is generated print the sheet. The cover the answers and send the font to white (this hides the answers) print this sheet. Repeat for newly generated worksheets. Alternatively the spreadsheet can be projected onto the board and students answer from the board. Then at an appropriate time the answers can be shown by changing the column hiding the answers back to black font.
GCSE Revision: Simultaneous equations

GCSE Revision: Simultaneous equations

(0)
This revision lesson looks at solving simultaneous equations through the process of elimination. As with the other revision lessons, the lesson consists of a number of worked examples with questions for students to answer embedded throughout the lesson. Duration is approximately two hours.
GCSE Algebra: Drawing straight line graph revision
sjcoopersjcooper

GCSE Algebra: Drawing straight line graph revision

(1)
This Revision lesson reminds students how we draw graph from an equation in the form y=mx+c. Firstly the member of staff goes through two worked examples before the students tackle one or two on their own before checking the solution at the board. The examples then get more complicated. This revision lesson is aimed at Foundation students.
Decimal, Fraction & percentage conversions

Decimal, Fraction & percentage conversions

(1)
This revision lesson reminds students how we can convert decimals into either fractions or percentages. Fractions into decimals or percentages and percentages into decimals or fractions. These revision lessons work with the teacher going through a couple of examples, which I get the students to copy down into their books, so that they have something to refer back to later. Then the students answer a number of questions to ensure they understand the work. The I move to the next slide and do much the same. I find that this has really helped with the low ability students moving their learning form short term to long term.
Simplifying Surds

Simplifying Surds

(0)
This Powerpoint can be used over approximately three lessons. The lessons introduce the knowledge of the surd. The understanding of simplifying a surd or an arrangement using surds and then concludes with the more complicated surd questions we see in the new GCSE structure. The Powerpoint is accompanied with two worksheets and answers, which can be used in class or as a piece of homework.
Constructing Equations

Constructing Equations

(0)
This lesson teaches students, through worked examples, how we construct equations. The lessons quickly moves onto solving the constructed equations. A worksheet is also provided which can be used in class or as a piece of homework. I usually teach this lesson after a series of lessons on solving equations. https://www.tes.com/teaching-resource/introduction-to-solving-equations-11225938

This spreadsheet is set up to produce nine questions for students to answer on a variety of foundation topics. The spreadsheet also generates the answers. To generate a new list simply alter week 1 for week 2 etc and a new sheet is generated. That is the numbers are replaced or a different algebraic expression is generated. The topics on this sheet include: Dividing into a given ratio Multiplying fractions together nth term of a linear sequence collection of like terms solving simple equations decimal conversions metric conversions decimal multiplication
Percentages
sjcoopersjcooper

Percentages

(0)
This spreadsheet will generate infinite worksheets for percentage questions. The spreadsheet will also provide the answers. Once the sheet is generated print the sheet and print the answers. Then change the worksheet number to 2 or 3, extra and watch a completely new worksheet get generated. Alternatively the spreadsheet can be projected onto the board and students answer from the board. Then at an appropriate time the answers can be shown by changing the column hiding the answers back to black font.
Probability Tree revision lesson
sjcoopersjcooper

Probability Tree revision lesson

(1)
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.
Frequency Polygon & Cumulative Frequency Revision
sjcoopersjcooper

Frequency Polygon & Cumulative Frequency Revision

(1)
This revision lesson reminds students how to draw both Frequency polygons and cumulative frequency curves. This is done through both worked examples and a few for them to have a go at before checking answers at the board. The lesson also reminds students how the median and Interquartile range are found from the cumulative frequency curve.
