This resource is from a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring dynamics. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. The resources typically include slide shows to introduce the topics, student sheets and teacher notes, as well as other relevant resources.

In this activity the friction...

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

In this resource, sessions look at:

• Solving simple equations (encouraging reasoning rather than 'answer getting')
• Rearranging simple equations (encouraging reasoning...

This resource from Inquiry Maths contains a simple prompt which leads to a rich task exploring the nature of linear equations.

Solving equations inquiry and the Lesson notes outline the prompt for students to explore and suggests a number of supplementary enquiries. The...

This resource develops the concept of solving equations where the unknown appears once or more than once.

This lesson develops solving linear equations in one variable with rational number coefficients. Additionally, collecting terms, expanding expressions, and categorising linear equations according to the...

This resource focusses on developing understanding of the use of addition and subtraction to balance a model see-saw.  In this activity learners will improve their addition and subtraction skills through a practical approach. They will use a model of a see-saw to balance a range of numbers. Learners will decide how...

This booklet collects together ideas suitable for use with secondary school aged students. The activities are designed to encourage students to use their calculators efficiently and positively to help develop mathematical thinking and understanding. 

Finding your way about a calculator[is a...

Three activities produced by Susan Wall are designed to provide the opportunity for students to explore the concepts involved and to highlight any misconceptions by discussing whether the statements presented can sometimes be true, are always true or can never be true.

Algebra: students are...

This is a variation on the standing waves investigation and follows a similar set up.  You investigate the connection between the tension, length and frequency of a stretched wire.

These Cre8ate maths activities demand logical and multi-stage thinking. This topic also supports the development of personal, learning and thinking skills.

This resource features a short task on different representations of functions.

Students are presented with a matching exercise in which they must link together equations, tables of values, worded statements, and graphs for both linear and quadratic functions.

This task is from the Mathematics...

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students with the opportunity to explore the properties of quadrilaterals using flow charts.

"Flow charts show the order in which a series of events is to be carried out. They are used...

This booklet is part of the ‘Innovations in Practical Work’ series published by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme (SEP). Sound is an important part of our lives. Many people enjoy listening to music, and watching television would not be the same without sound. On...
