This book is aimed at all teachers of mathematics at Key Stages 3 & 4, though it will also find some use at Key Stage 2. Flowhcharts are a visually engaging way of describing mathematical processes and can offer a starting point for rich mathematical activity. The 20 flowcharts in this book (also available on...

This unit from the Continuing Mathematics Project on flowcharts and Algorithms employs, three basic conventions:
(i) the use of a flowchart and the appropriate symbols
(ii) the use of computer statements, such as 'c = c + I1
(iii) the use of the inequality signs >, <, ≤ and ≥
Three very...

Flower power hair accessory

This resource provides step by step instructions on how to make a hair accessory which lights up. Photographs are provided for each stage to illustrate the techniques. A small circuit needs to be hidden at the back of the hair accessory, so a miniature cell holder is an ideal component for this project. The circuit...

This series highlights the relationship between human need and plant life in both our local and global environments.
