Fact finders 7-9

The (fictional) show Fact Finders TV needs help from your STEM Club! The show explores common myths, crazy stories and possible pranks and is asking pupils to find out, ‘Is it really true?’ and ‘How could it work?’ Pupils will make their own models to test their ideas and draw conclusions so they can report back on...

Factor Cards

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources that explore Algebra and Maths. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

In Factor Cards, learners practise expanding brackets and/or factorising quadratic expressions.

Factor trees puzzle

The mathematics involved in this puzzle is factorisation and this leads on to prime factors. Different factor trees for 40 are given and the challenge is to find the different factorisations. This is helpful for convincing students that there are several ways to find the prime factorisation. This resource is...

Factorising Cubics A11

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to associate x-intercepts with finding values of x such that f (x) = 0, sketch graphs of cubic functions, find linear factors of cubic functions and develop efficient strategies when factorising cubic functions. Students should have some familiarity with...
