This resource contains a short presentation which introduces three problems where approximate solutions can be calculated.
The first activity asks students to use Fermi estimation to calculate the quantity of tea used in China in a three month period. Students are also invited to calculate an estimate of the...
This question asks us to consider a person opening a burger bar, doing all of the cooking themselves, and then estimate how much space should they rent?
The main topics required are rates (number of burgers per hour that one person could cook, number of customers per hour), and areas.
This Cre8ate maths activity allows the opportunity to discuss the modelling function of mathematics. The tasks allow students to develop their own strategies and to consider the idea of an ‘efficient’ algorithm. In addition, 'First fit and full bins' activity involves work on ratio and pie charts.
A Catalyst article about what happens as plants grow. During their growth, plants remove compounds of nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium from soil which need to be replaced to maintain the soil’s fertility. For centuries farmers have used organic manures, crop rotation or ploughed in specially grown crops; today...

This Salters’ Chemistry Course unit from the University of York Science Education Group covered:
* The use and importance of germicides.
* The chemist's role in public health.
* Some of the chemical reactions inside our bodies.
* The function and...
This Catalyst article looks at how exercise affects our immunity and susceptibility to infection. Recent research indicates that a person's level of physical activity affects their immune function, influencing their risk of respiratory tract infections such as a cold. Whereas moderate levels of regular exercise...
