This activity is based on the work being carried out at The University of Oxford where researchers are using x-ray tomography (CT scanning) to visualise and measure the 3D structures of fossilised organisms that are still encased in rock.

This resource from Nelson Thornes is the Teachers' Book which accompanies the Foundation 1 Students Book and is part of a series of books which were developed to deliver the three tier GCSE in Mathematics. The chapter outline provided in the Teacher's Book begins with a list of the main learning outcomes for each...

This booklet contains a range of suggested teaching activities and contexts covering physical quantities and units, measurements and data analysis, uncertainties, scalars and vectors.

Although produced to support the teaching of OCR AS and A Level Physics A specifications (H156, H556) ...

This unit looks at 'fracking', the extraction of shale gas by hydraulic fracturing, as an application of science and considers who has access to, and influence over, decision-making processes which determine what risks are acceptable, and who they...

This resource, from the Maths Careers website, explores fractal geometry and was created in conjunction with More Maths Grads and the University of Leeds.

The activity involves making paper representations of fractals and gives the opportunity to investigate some of their mathematical properties.

This National Strategies Study Plus unit has been designed to cover a number of areas of mathematics, particularly work with number and algebra. It also addresses a range of learning styles along with links to literacy and ICT through the use of spreadsheets.

Using the topic of fractals, studnets explore...

This activity requires students to be able to add, subtract, multiply and divide fractions. Each letter of the alphabet is represented by a fraction. Students perform calculations, the answers to which are converted into code words. Questions are in three groups: addition and subtraction of fractions,...

Fraction Matcher gives students the opportunity to explore the concept of fractions. The “Fractions Screen” contains eight levels of matching fractions using fractions less than one up to improper fraction representations for fractions greater than one. The “Mixed Number Screen” concentrates upon fractions greater...

Designed to improve confidence in mathematics, these resources from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, focus on fractions and were developed particularly for primary teachers and those non-specialists who teach mathematics in the lower secondary years.

Each section offers an overview of a...

The curriculum objectives covered by this resource are:

• To be able to compare fractions and determine if they are equal where denominators are not common
• To be able to compare fractions and determine if they are greater or smaller
• To be able to justify answers
