This resource from Jonny Griffiths contains a range of puzzles designed for 14 to 17 year old maths students. In each puzzle, the digits one to six have been rubbed out and replaced with six squares labelled a to f. The task is to put the digits back in again correctly to make each statement true...

Dijkstra's algorithm finds the shortest path for a given problem. Dijkstra's algorithm can be used to find the shortest route between two cities. This algorithm is so powerful that it not only finds the shortest path from a chosen source to a given destination, it also finds all of the shortest paths from the...

This resource contains eight instant maths ideas designed to provide the opportunity for students to explore conversion graphs, compare imperial and metric units, estimate everyday measurements and explore the nature of different dimensions. The student resource sheet requires students to convert between different...

Mendeleev's invention of the periodic table of the elements showed how to predict and create further elements, something which scientists are still doing today.

This article is from Catalyst: Secondary Science Review 2016, Volume 26, Issue 4.

This interactive excel file has separate sheets which deal with direct proportion where the functions are linear, quadratic, cubic and square root.

Each sheet begins with a statement of the proportional relationship,...

This resource written by Shirley Fall has thirteen cards each with a statement about directed numbers and how they lie on a 3 by 3 grid. The rationale is for students to discuss possible options and work towards a solution of which directed number lies in each of the grid cells.

The file named Directed...

This Study Plus unit from the National Strategies asks students to plan the relief aid for a fictitious tsunami along the South American Pacific coast. The project is centred on Concepción, Chile’s second largest urban conurbation. This was the scene of an actual tsunami in 1960, after an earthquake off the Chilean...

This suite of student activities, challenges and related resources aims to give students an insight into the roles of engineers following a natural disaster.

The short introductory activities increase students’ awareness of the range of types of natural disaster and the kinds of problems associated with them...

This sub-collection of resources from the ‘Graphing Stories’ collection contains situations that give rise to jump discontinuities in graphs.
