Dotty grids, square grids, different types of graph paper and axes and number grids in different orientations make up this collection of printable resources from Subtangent.

These nine instant maths ideas explore a variety of statistical calculations. The first task asks students to discuss a spider diagram depicting descriptive statistics. Other tasks explore misconceptions when calculating different averages and consider which average is the most appropriate to use in different...

This sub-collection of resources from the Virtual Text Book collection contains four resources designed for use on an interactive whiteboard to aid the teaching and learning of a variety of topics in ‘Statistics and Probability’. Each resource is an interactive excel worksheet to encourage teacher-student...

This set of mathematics resources, from National Strategies, aims to help teachers plan and provide teaching and learning that will ensure children progress through the National Curriculum levels over Key Stages One and Two.

These include the Overcoming the barriers, Securing levels, Assessment and...

This resource by Pedagogics explores subtle adjustments to teacher's language in order to be less emotive, more objective-led and promote progress.

Two verticals masts on a horizontal base have ropes tethered to each other’s base. The challenge is to find the height at which the ropes cross. When working on numerical examples, it becomes...

Three addition calculations are shown using symbols instead of numbers. Can students arrange the symbols from smallest to largest? A second puzzle follows with four additions, including one with more than one symbol on each side of the equals sign.

This Cre8ate maths activity draws on measuring stretchiness which involves the collection of real data, calculating percentages and experimental design. This resource models one way in which engineers use their knowledge of mathematics to investigate the properties of materials. Here students investigate the...

This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science, maths and design and technology. This resource focusses on testing how well different shaped structures perform under load.
