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.

The resource is an introduction to linear graphs, leading to the link between the constants in the standard form...

This short task considers identifying and interpreting linear graphs.

Students are given five equations of linear graphs. They must match four of them with graphs that have been drawn, and then draw the other graph on a set of axes. The final part of the task is to find a graph that could represent the speed...

This set of course materials from the National STEM Learning Centre and Network were designed to build an understanding of how electronics can be combined with textiles at Key Stage Three, starting with simple circuits and leading to more complex programming and effects...

For this investigation students will be calculating the density of a liquid (usually water) by using the loaded test tube method.  By adding mass to the test tube, you work out how far it has sunk then by substituting results into an equation, work out the density of the liquid.  This is a good experiment for...

This STEM activity supports pupils to develop their knowledge and understanding of litter and how data can be recorded and displayed. Pupils will have the opportunity to collect different types of litter and record the amount of each type found in a tally chart before being supported to create a pictogram to...

This resource, aimed at primary level, contains many investigations, activities and games related to plants, looking at seeds and germination, how to grow plants and the factors which affect plant growth. Activities include exploring the inside of a seed before it...

This resource provides a selection of lesson plans, worksheets and teachers notes relating to living things and their habitats at Year Six. They include activities which look at the history of classification of living things, studying the binomial system introduced by...

This resource provides a selection of lesson plans, worksheets and teachers notes relating to Living Things and their Habitats at Year Five. They include activities in which children learn about the life cycles of flowering and non-flowering plants. They also look at...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Explain what is meant by movement, growth, nutrition, excretion, respiration, reproduction and sensitivity (the characteristic processes of living organisms).

• Explain...

Have you ever travelled on a large vehicle ferry? How are the vehicles loaded? Why do you think it matters which vehicles go on first or where they are put on the car deck?If you are loading cargo (into a rucksack, onto a boat, onto ...

This lesson goes into more detail about the specific Apollo missions that returned the Lunar samples in this kit. It also combines coordinate systems with high resolution Lunar Reconnaissance Orbiter images to challenge students to locate the lunar landing sites and hardware that was left behind on the surface of...

Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these resources are aimed at mathematics practitioners.

Sessions in this resource look at:

• Loci - kinds of loci (using rich collaborative tasks)
• Loci - distinguishing loci based on their conditions (using rich collaborative...

This interactive excel file allows students to investigate loci. Each of the interactive sheets enables students to see random points on or near the locus and how the locus is constructed. Loci include the locus of points equidistant from a point, from a line segment...

This resource consists of 12 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, providing students with the opportunity to explore loci and constructions using physical activities, by solving problems such as the goat and the shed problem,...
