To increase confidence and fluency, students need to spend time practising the basic definition and rules of logarithms and be able to apply the rules in more complex expressions. This resource, from Susan Wall, contains four advanced level activities designed to practise the basics and extend understanding of...

This DfE Standards Unit resource enables students to develop their understanding of the laws of logarithms, practise using the laws of logarithms to simplify numerical expressions involving logarithms and apply their knowledge of the laws of logarithms to expressions involving variables. Students should have some...

This contains two excel programs with interactive spreadsheets designed to show the graphical solution to pairs of simultaneous equations and provide their solutions.

...

This file provides practice at solving pairs of simultaneous equations where at least one is not linear. The pairs of graphs and the coordinates of the points of intersection can be revealed.

The effective use of the Gravity Jet Suit requires a high level of control, for the pilot, over their core, leg and arm muscles.  This resource explains that biomechanics is the synergy between muscles and bones and shows some of the joints used in flying in the suit.

This problem involves using vectors to model 3D space. Two skew lines are presented and the challenge is to find the shortest distance between the lines. In addition, the...

In this Core Maths resource students examine real-life data, identify skew, and investigate the relationship between mean, median and mode for distributions with varying skew.
