Down the years I've written lots of free maths resources, mainly for the A Level classroom.
I'm gathering them together here for ease of access. Please help yourself!
The Proving Ground
An introduction to mathematical proof via forty problems,
half of which are resolved and half of which are not.

Maths teachers! Stop what you are doing and get this now!
An absolutely fantastic new book from the wonderful @therispguy.
Intriguing problems supported by detailed discourse.
A great addition to the canon of mathematics teaching.

Loving The Proving Ground by @therispguy;
a masterclass in how everyone can at least make a start on the most intractable of problems.
Some wonderful quotes too!

This book has reminded me that it is too easy to teach in a routine way,
doing just enough to help the students through the next exercise.
It offers great questions for students to work on on their own,
helping them gain in confidence and understanding as they do so.
These are often our most capable students,
and and this book will significantly deepen and enrich their mathematical experience.
I look forward to using some of these tasks with my class this year,
and I strongly recommend this book for anyone teaching the Further Mathematics course.

A brilliant book.

Write down a mathematical statement, and then rub out the digits 1 to 6 once each.
The puzzle becomes, can your student work out how to replace the missing digits truthfully?
A collection of fifty puzzles for the late GCSE/ early A Level classroom.
