Multiplying Fractions

(0)
This lesson is a Powerpoint and Worksheet which I have used to teach students how to multiply fractions. This lesson is taught once I have covered addition and subtraction of fraction. Once the worked examples have been covered students are given the worksheet to either complete in class or as homework. Answers to the worksheet are also provided.

Composite Functions

(1)
This powerpoint lesson follows any lesson that has introduced functions to students. The lesson begins by demonstrating how functions could be combined together in order to make other functions. It then demonstrates, through worked examples, how to calculate a composite function. The worksheet has two uses, the first three questions are designed for students to demonstrate they have followed the process of finding a composite function. The remaining questions, whilst continuing this process, leads us to another lesson on Inverse Functions. The composite for the remaining questions work out to be repeatedly x.
