Chromatography is one of the titles in the series of ASE Lab Books that were published in the early 1970s for the Association for Science Education by John Murray. Each title covered one or two topics and brought together the best of the teaching notes and experimental...

This resource consists of four interactive excel files dealing with the circumference and area of circles and some of the main circle theorems.

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to name and classify polygons according to their properties, develop mathematical language to describe the similarities and differences between shapes and develop convincing explanations as to why combinations of particular properties are impossible. (...

This resource develops the concept of exploring the relationship between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. There is a particular focus on finding lines that are parallel and perpendicular by using their equations. The work extends into identifying and using intercepts.

Students are presented...

This lesson develops the concept of distinguishing between rational and irrational numbers. In particular, students will enhance their ability in:

• Classifying numbers as rational or irrational.
• Moving between different representations of rational and irrational numbers.

The first activity in this resource asks students to consider x = 5 and answer the question ‘what value is y’? An initial discussion builds up understanding of graphical representations of linear equations.

This lesson develops solving pairs of linear equations by considering their graphical representations...

This sample of a teacher guide introduces basic robotics using Lego NXT hardware and software The general nature as well as the origins of robotics are covered. NXT robots are then introduced, as well as some basic mathematical and other considerations for using robots in the classroom. The importance and impact of...
