Cubics (Factorising and Graphing)
This interactive excel program enables students to investigate cubic functions and the relationship between the factorised form and the graph.
The first activities require the student to use the factor theorem to...
Cuboid faces
In this teacher presentation and collection of student worksheets, the area of each face of a cuboid is given. Students are then asked to calculate the volume.
Each student worksheet contains a different cuboid, but the solutions all have something in common. The teacher presentations highlights two possible...

Cuboids
This interactive excel file begins with a sheet showing the dimensions of a cuboid beside an oblique drawing of the cuboid. The student needs to calculate the area of the three different faces, the total surface area and the volume of the cuboid. The dimensions can be...
Cuboids and Surface Area
This activity is from the Association of Teachers of Mathematics (ATM) publication ‘Learning and Teaching Without a...
Cuckoo: Co-evolution and natural selection
This role play activity illustrates natural selection, based on the cuckoo/host example of co-evolution. as well as providing opportunities for developing key scientific skills such as experimental design and research.
Examples of natural selection and evolution in secondary...
Cuckoos at Wicken Fen, Snow, and Radiocarbon Dating
This podcast from the Natural Environment Research Council's (NERC) Planet Earth Online collection looks at the cunning tricks the cuckoo uses to get another bird to do the parenting, why researchers are studying snow in Sweden, and discovers an improved radiocarbon dating technique.
The cuckoo is a well-...
Whether you work with young children or older learners the use of practical materials is fundamental to developing conceptual understanding.
