This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of reflection, from investigating folding symmetry to using matrices to perform reflections.

This resource contains an interactive spreadsheet which demonstrates and provides practice in reflection and translation at primary level.

Activities include: identifying lines of symmetry in 2D shapes, plotting...

This collection of Nuffield Maths resources explores Decision maths. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. The resources include slide shows to introduce the topics, student sheets and teacher notes, as well as other relevant resources.

From Nelson Thornes, this resource helps students studying physics at post-16, A2 level. In this activity students consider in detail the working of energy-recovery regenerative braking systems used in some hybrid cars, electric cars and in electric trains. The main aim is to practice the basic understanding of the...

These activities cover bivariate data which includes regression and correlation.

[b]Least squares regression[/b] spreadsheet is designed to help students get a feel for drawing a line of best fit through a set of points and to begin to understand the concept of regression. Students are given a set of six...

This resource from CensusAtSchool uses the ideas of estimating probabilities through finding the relative frequency of given data about favourite subjects at school. It uses sampling from different populations and investigates the effect of sample size on the estimated probability.

From Science & Plants for Schools (SAPS), this practical activity was developed for Scottish Highers specifications, but the protocol can equally well be used for other specifications.

Students incubate...

This activity sheet is based on the Inventive Podcast.  It introduces electrical engineer Jack Howarth, and links his work to a physics topic. The activity sheet also supports Careers Benchmark 4: Careers in the curriculum by introducing a career and role model. There are also links to short audio clips of Jack...

The aim of this resource is to give students the opportunity to investigate the use of science, technology, engineering and mathematics when controlling Remotely Piloted Air Systems (RPAS). Students will use computing and maths skills to create a flight plan for RPAS.

Understand the engineering principles of hovering by building your own craft that can glide effortlessly across the table. This practical engineering activity provides instructions and teaching content to create a hovercraft out of a CD and balloon. 

From Practical Action, this wordsearch is an enjoyable way of engaging students in the subject of renewable energy.

This book by John Stringer discusses five main categories of renewable energy - wind, water, solar, geothermal and biofuels. It considers the technology, economics, and environmental impact of renewable energy projects in order to enable students to form their own views about renewable energy.

The resource...

This resource uses the context of boats used in the America's cup sailing race to encourage students to think about the various types of energy resources, how they are used and the impact they have on the environment. 

The resource consists of a sequence of two lessons.  The first looks at the role of the...

Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), these resources help to put curriculum science in a real life context. The activities provide opportunities for children to consider the use of plant material (biomass) for renewable energy. They go on to look at some of the problems that using...
