A Year 11 module from the Salters Key Stage Four double award science course. This module introduces ideas about how living organisms control their internal environment and respond to changes in their external environment. Students are reminded that few living things...

This excel file starts with a series of five sheets which show conversion graphs involving metric and imperial measures for height and weight and graphs for money conversions. The two money conversions allow the exchange rate to be altered. Units used include stones, kg...

This resource contains three activities designed to provide students with practise of working with coordinates in the first quadrant and in all four quadrants.

Practice...

This SMILE resource contains one pack of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of coordinates.

The pack contains ten work cards with a wide variety of activities requiring students to use coordinates to solve a coded message, draw a picture, use...

In this Nuffield activity students investigate how different numbers of squares can be joined corner to corner and the effect their arrangement has on the area of the rectangle that encloses the squares.

The key...

The first sheet of this excel file shows a set of data in a scatter plot. The line of best fit can be drawn and a description of the type of correlation can be revealed along with the equation of the trend line. The other sheet shows the value of cars at various ages. The scatter plot shows the data and there are a...

The first sheet of this interactive excel file shows a triangle ABC with the lengths of appropriate sides labelled a, b, and c. The six versions of the Cosine Rule are shown with each side and the cosine of each angle as the subject of the formula.

This activity  from Plotr uses the game of bingo as a way of  getting students to  think creatively about the range of careers available in STEM sectors, particularly careers in construction and engineering.

This excel file has two interactive sheets, both showing variations of the Countdown game. The first shows a grid for a set of nine letters to be selected, either vowel or consonant. There is a 30 second timer to allow students time to make their longest word.

This resource contains many varied example of counting problems. In each one students are asked to count the number of triangles that can be found in a diagram, how many times does each digit appear if the numbers 1 to 10 are written down, how many different ways can a number be partitioned…

In this assessment task from Bowland, students are provided with a page containing circles and triangles which represent different trees in a wood. Students are tasked with estimating how many of the different types of trees there are and then required to simplify a complex situation and choose an appropriate...

This resource from the IET Faraday programme, supported by MEI and Tomorrow's Engineers, provides students the opportunity to estimate the numbers of stars in an image from the Hubble telescope.

"The Hubble Space Telescope is a space telescope that was launched into low Earth orbit...

In this activity students transcribe the DNA into...

This resource pack contains twelve 'hands on’ activities linked to different aspects of the science of materials and states of matter. Aimed at learners of all ages, they would be particularly suitable for use at primary level to demonstrate key ideas and concepts and to spark an interest in chemistry. Containing...
