In plants, cell division by mitosis takes place in specific tissues, called meristems, that are found at the growing root and shoot tips and in the cambium between the xylem and phloem of the vascular bundle. The cells in the meristems are...

This Salters’ Chemistry Course unit from the University of York Science Education Group covered:
* The extraction and production of important materials from sulphide ores, iron ore and limestone.
* The use of relative atomic masses for determining the masses...

This activity is an ideal opportunity to use the real-world context of logistics as an application of solving multi-step mathematical problems and evaluating the outcomes. It is one of three mathematical problem-solving activities with a...

These materials, from the Association for Science Education (ASE), are part of a pilot for a series of Key Stage Four Mini-projects aiming to breathe life back into investigative work for students and teachers. This resource is a part of the SYCD Who am I? collection.

The resources are produced by The...

Aimed at Key Stage One and lower Key Stage Two, this resource links to the topics of minibeasts and habitats. An introductory presentation focuses on 20 common mini-animals and looks at ways of identifying them such as the number of legs, colour, size and habitat.

The resource suggests activities and...

An activity booklet from the Biotechnology and Biological Science Research Council (BBSRC) for 5 to 12 year olds. Through these activities, children are introduced to the world of invertebrates (minibeasts). There are a range of activities which cover curriculum areas...

In this resource from Cre8ate maths, students critically compare nutritional measures and calculate their daily energy requirements. Initially students fill in the worksheet Can we eat what we like, to prompt a whole class discussion about the consequences of a bad diet. They then use the Sugar, salt and fat...

The aim of a minimum spanning tree is to connect every vertex of the network using the edges having the least possible total weight. The task requires students to analyse information about a town centre and suggest which roads should be pedestrianized. [

Minimum spanning tree: presentation...

This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring Algebra. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level.

This resource asks students to use graphical methods to solve maximum and minimum problems in industry and in working life, using a spreadsheet or graphic calculator...
