This worksheet covers how to solve single and double-sided inequalities and includes representing the solution on a number line as well as considering examples where integer solutions are required. The introduction covers what the solution to a linear inequality should look like and, by means of a few examples, explores the similarities and differences between solving equations and inequalities. The first exercise (52 Qs) then gives students practice solving inequalties of the form ax+b>c, x/a+b The second section focuses on double-sided inequalities such as 3 The final section is designed to help students consider the integer solutions to an inequality. In the examples students need to find the smallest possible integer value of n if n>p, the largest possible integer value of n if n Answers to all the exercises are provided, including the solutions on number lines. Also included is a homework/test with fully worked solutions.

This worksheet focuses on using the sum of angles in a triangle to find missing angles. It assumes that students are already familiar with angles on a straight line, vertically opposite angles, and angles in parallel lines. The first section covers all the different types of triangles and their properties. There is a short exercise where students practise choosing the correct type(s) of triangle based on the information given. The second section begins with the result for the sum of angles in a triangle, including a proof using angles on a straight line. There are then some examples of finding angles - these are to be completed with your class. The exercise that follows is for students to attempt themselves. Answers to both exercises are included.

This is a simple wordsearch I created so that my younger classes could get involved in pi day. Solution is included.

This 15-page resource covers all the required knowledge and techniques for hypothesis testing in the A2 part of the new A level. It contains detailed notes, examples to work through with your class, and exercises of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The topics covered are: The distribution of the sampling mean Hypothesis tests using sample means Hypothesis tests using correlation coefficients This projectable and printable resource will save you having to write out or create any notes/examples when teaching this topic. It also increases how much you can get through in lessons as students don’t have to copy notes/questions and can work directly onto spaces provided for solutions. You could also email/print some or all of this for students who have missed lessons or need additional notes/practice/revision. Also included is a 3-page assessment that covers the whole topic. Fully worked solutions are included. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: /teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

I created this short worksheet to revise the principles and basic methods for determining whether an object on an inclined plane will slide, topple, or neither. It may also be suitable as an introduction to the topic. So that the focus of the worksheet is on deciding what happens to the object, rather than spending time finding the location of the centre of mass, I have used only solid cylinders and cones for the questions. There is an introductory page which explains the required methods, together with a couple of examples. The exercise contains 20 questions, answers are included.

This simple worksheet contains 16 questions for your students to practise drawing the plan and the front and side elevations of an object made from cubes. Answers are provided for marking / projecting for students to check.

These are two different tests I created to assess the whole of the statistics element of the new AS level. Each test contains 16/17 examination-style questions, based on exemplar questions, specimen papers, topic tests or textbook questions, The tests cover the following: Cumulative frequency diagrams Box and whisker diagrams Histograms Scatter diagrams and correlation Finding/estimating averages or measures of spread from grouped/ungrouped data or from summary statistics Probability (two-way tables, tree diagrams, venn diagrams, independent and mutually exclusive events) Probability density functions Binomial distribution Sampling methods Hypothesis testing Both tests come with fully-worked solutions. Having two different tests is useful if, like me, you have two different A level groups and want to set them different tests, or you could give out one as a practice test or revision and use the other for an actual test. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: /teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

These resources are a collection of short tests on the application of Pythagoras’ theorem. All the tests are quite short (3/4 questions, so 5-10mins max). I created them so that I was able to test my classes more regularly on topics at different points through the year - each test is similar enough so that classes hopefully improve at the “standard” questions but there is also some variety in the later questions in each test and a progression in difficulty as you go through the tests. There are 5 tests designed to be done with a calculator, 13 tests to be done without a calculator. The questions include: Finding the longest/shorter side of a right-angled triangle Determining whether a triangle is right-angled Finding the distance between 2 points Using Pythagoras’ theorem in isosceles triangles, rectangles, squares etc Using Pythagoras’ theorem in 3D Using Pythagoras’ theorem where side lengths are given as surds All tests come with fully-worked solutions which makes them easy to mark. This means that the tests could also be used as a revision resource for students. A sample of the tests is available for free here: /teaching-resource/pythagoras-theorem-test-x2-11923017

This set of resources covers evaluating and simplifying expressions with powers. The first resource is 18 multiple choice questions on evaluating powers for students to attempt (I usually get my class to do this in pairs/small groups). The second resource is a worksheet with different sections that focus on evaluating with postive integer powers and 0, negative integer powers, then fractional powers. Each section contains examples to work through as a class and then an exercise for students to attempt. Answers are included. The third and fourth resource cover simplifying expressions, following the same format and the 1st and 2nd. The powerpoint contains slides that revise how to evaluate and simplify expressions with powers - useful as a plenary or as a refresher at the start of a lesson. The multiple choice questions cover both evaluating and simplifying - useful as a revision resource or a quick assessment. Solutions provided. The final resource is a set of questions to cover the whole powers topic, some of which are examination style questions. Answers are included.

These resources are designed to help to introduce your students to the AQA Large Data Set for 2018-19, to get them familiar with some of its properties and typical questions that can be asked about data taken from it. The worksheet begins by introducing the data selected by AQA and the regions of England that are referred to. There are then several pages of examples, chosen to illustrate particular properties of the data or a certain style of question. The examples cover the following: How data is categorised - shows students categories and sub-categories How data values are presented - shows students how the exact values in the LDS are rounded for tables/extracts Outliers - shows how outliers can be identified and common outliers in the data Interpretation of diagrams - allows students to consider what can and cannot be deduced from a range of diagrams The intention is that these examples are worked through and discussed with your class. Possible answers to the examples are given in the teacher version of the worksheet. There is then a 6-page exercise for students to complete. This exercise contains questions that are based on the style of the exemplar questions released by AQA, so they should be ideal practice for your students. Answers to the exercise are included. The spreadsheet is designed to make it easier and quicker to analyse certain aspects of the large data set. By simply selecting the 2 food categories you wish to investigate, the spreadsheet will: Pull all the relevant data onto a single sheet Calculate PMCC between the 2 food categories (for each region, and for each year) Calculate quartiles and indicate the presence of any outliers Draw scatter diagrams for each region, and for each year The spreadsheet is a really useful tool to help you quickly select some data from the LDS that can be used to illustrate/discuss a particular aspect of the data or to practise a particular style of question. Alternatively, the spreadsheet could be given to your students so that they are able to do some investigation of the data themselves, without needing to know much about using Excel. The final resource is just a set of notes on how to use the spreadsheet and its functionality.

This 17-page worksheet can be used to deliver the topic of proof in the new AS level specification for all exam boards. A great resource to help deliver this new topic - fully worked solutions included and a version with teaching notes added for some key points. It begins by reviewing all the required basic knowledge. It discusses particular errors in solutions/proofs, covers the use of ⇒, ⇐ and ⇔, and writing solutions to inequalities in interval and set notation. For each of these 3 topics there are notes, then examples to work through with your class, then an exercise for students to complete. For each of the 3 methods of proof (counter example, deduction, and exhaustion) there are a number of examples for you to work through as a class, followed by an exercise for students to attempt themselves. There are also some suggested extension activities for students interested in doing some research or additional work that goes beyond the scope of the syllabus. The fully-worked solutions to the exercises are included in the students’ version, and fully-worked solutions to all the examples are also included in the teachers’ versions. I needed about 3 hours’ of teaching time to get through this whole worksheet with my classes. A homework/test is also included, with fully-worked solutions provided. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: /teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

These resources are designed to introduce the vectors topic for the Core 4 module. The first resource introduces all the required skills and knowledge using just 2 dimensions, which enables students to use/draw diagrams to help them understand the steps in the solutions. At appropriate points within this resource there are prompts to attempt one of the other worksheets to focus on a particular skill or type of question. All the other worksheets work in 3 dimensions, so students may need help with the first couple of examples on each sheet. There are lots of examples on each sheet to help students become confident with that particular part of the vectors topic. Answers are provided for all the worksheets, either on the sheet or as a separate resource.

This resource covers the use of graphs and/or the sign-change rule to investigate roots of equations, as required for the new A level. It contains notes, explanations and examples to work through with your class followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The notes cover: (a) Use of a sketch of y=f(x) and y=g(x) to investigate roots of f(x) = g(x) (b) Using a sketch of y=f(x)-g(x) to investigate roots of f(x)=g(x) © Using the sign-change rule (d) Conditions where the sign-change rule can be misleading This projectable and printable resource will save you having to create or write out any notes/examples when teaching the topic, and will make things easier for your students as they can just work directly on the given spaces provided for solutions. Answers to the exercise are included. Also included is a short activity to show how this method can be used to find smaller intervals where a root lies, which can be used as an introduction to iterative methods. Here is an example of one of my A level resources that is freely available: /teaching-resource/differentiation-and-integration-with-exponential-and-trigonometric-functions-new-a-level-11981186

This activity is a nice way to check your whole class is secure on multiplying or dividing by 10, 100, 1000 etc. The powerpoint has 20 multiple-choice questions of increasing difficulty, and there is an answer grid for your students to indicate their answers. There is a second powerpoint that can be used to check the answers. I used this with my year 7 group and they all got quite competitive trying to get all 20 questions correct.

This 13-page resource introduces basic differentiation and integration of exponential and trigonometric functions (in the A2 part of the new A level). The calculus work does NOT require chain rule, product rule, quotient rule, integration by parts… etc In every section it contains notes then examples to work through with your class, followed by an exercise of questions for students to attempt themselves (answers included). The sections are: 1.Differentiation of e^x and ln(x) 2.Differentiation of trigonometric functions (sin, cos and tan only) 3.Integration of e^x, 1/x, and trigonometric functions (sin and cos only) This projectable and printable resource will save you having to write out any notes/examples or draw any graphs when teaching the topic, and will make things easier for your students as they can just work directly on the given diagrams and spaces provided for solutions. Note: some examples with trigonometric functions require knowledge of radians, double and compound angle identities, and small angle approximations.
