This resource contains ten instant maths ideas covering a whole range of suggestions that may be used as starter questions, extension questions or probing questions to assess understanding. Areas covered include: * exploring the different answers that can be achieved by completing parts of a complicated calculation...

This resource contains a collection of dynamic pictures designed to illustrate some of the common prisms and their properties: triangular, cuboidal, pentagonal, hexagonal, circular, semi-circular. Different prisms of the same type may be generated and the cross-section...

This interactive excel file shows how the volume of a prism relates to the area of cross section and the length. Various different shapes of cross section are used including pentagons, hexagons, circles and semicircles. In each interactive sheet the cross section can be...

Produced by the Learning and Skills Improvement Service (LSIS), these resources are aimed at mathematics practitioners. .

Sessions in this resource look at:

• Probability scales (using higher order questions)
• Probability, fractions, decimals and percentages (creating connections between...

This resource contains seventeen instant maths ideas beginning by exploring probability scales and simple probability. Students are asked to invent a fair game, to conduct an experiment using two dice and to discuss a number of statements relating to probability. Further suggestions include experimenting with three...

The workbook contains two simulations designed to help students to understand what is meant by a random process and to give some idea of the likelihood of particular events occurring.

This series interactive excel sheets explores probability. New data sets can be generated each time by the click of a button.

The first sheet explores the language of probability and how this ties in with percentage...

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 9A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 9. Probability covers: the probability scale, the probability of a single event, the probability of two events, tree diagrams, theoretical and experimental probabilities. The initial file...

This SMILE resource contains three packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of probability, and a pack of activities using Pascal’s triangle.

Probability pack one contains twelve work cards with a wide variety of activities...

Designed to improve confidence in mathematics, these resources from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, focus on probability and were developed particularly for primary teachers and those non-specialists who teach mathematics in the lower secondary years.

Each section offers an overview of a...

This collection of resources is produced by the Core Maths Support Programme to support the implementation of Core Maths. The collection contains a range of activities all designed to enable students to use and apply probability in unfamiliar contexts.

This sub-collection of resources from the Virtual Text Book collection contains four resources designed for use on an interactive whiteboard to aid the teaching and learning of a variety of topics in ‘Probability’. Each resource is an interactive excel worksheet to encourage teacher-student interaction. The topics...

This resource is from a collection of Nuffield Maths resources exploring Hypothesis testing. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in GCE A level. The resources typically include slide shows to introduce the topics, student sheets and teacher notes, as well as other relevant resources.
