The net for a cube is shown. The each face of the cube has a different design. Four pictures of the cube are shown but one of the faces has been left blank. The challenge is to find out which design should be drawn on the blank face. This resource would be useful as an extension when teaching nets of cubes.

This resource, provided by Anne Watson, Els De Geest and Stephanie Prestage, describes how a group of ten teachers taught low attaining groups in secondary school, and what features were seen to be important. The teachers had a shared commitment to improving the attainment of their lowest attaining students by...

Defence Dynamics is a collection of resources from the Ministry of Defence (MOD) which offers a range of lessons that draw on exciting and interesting examples of the MOD's work. Defence Dynamics aims to deliver an exciting resource whilst improving students’ understanding of the breadth and nature of the work of...

This resource develops the concept of finding the slope and equation of a linear graph defined by pairs of coordinates. There is also work on using the slope and y-axis intercept of a straight line to derive its equation.

The initial task for students to consider is to use proportional reasoning to calculate...

Many 'early-adopter' centres around the country were able to achieve the delivery of Core Maths ‘at scale’ quite early on. Delivering the course at scale means that fifty percent or more of the eligible cohort of students (all those who have a GCSE Grade C or above) are studying Core Maths in the year group. 

Written in 2009 by the Department for Children, Schools and families, this resource sets out the government's support for behaviour in schools at that time.

This guide will help volunteers working in schools to effectively support Cisco Little Big Futures project work. It covers:

• Information about how Little Big Futures can be integrated into STEM Clubs
• Guidance for effective...

These resources link ideas from mathematics to applications in real world engineering. The resources cover the broad topic of deployable structures which are structures that open up (deploy) into something of use. An obvious example would be an umbrella. There are also case studies of two engineers involved with...

The Nuffield Foundation provides this activity which can be used to review students' knowledge of the derivatives of quadratic and cubic functions and their graphs. The slideshow provides an introduction by considering a quadratic example and a cubic example.

Carom Maths provides this resource for teachers and students of A Level mathematics.

This activity explores an example of the Descent method. This method was popularised by the famous mathematician Pierre de Fermat...

This lesson develops the concept of naming and classifying quadrilaterals according to their properties. Students identify the minimal information required to define a quadrilateral. They sketch quadrilaterals with given conditions.

During the first part of the lesson students choose from the words ‘all’, ‘...

This lesson develops the concept of constructing triangles with given conditions. In particular students will:

• Recall and apply triangle properties
• Determine whether a set of given conditions for the measures of angle and/or sides of a triangle describe a unique triangle, more than one...
