This Triple Crossed activity from the Centre for Science Education and supported by the Astra Zeneca Teaching Trust starts with a quiz asking students to answer questions about the history of space exploration.

They are then asked to consider the evidence provided and use it to establish an argument for...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Explain what humans need in their diet and why.
• Identify short-term and long-term effects of exercise on the human body.
• Predict the possible outcomes of eating too much...

In this activity children keep a food and drink diary for a few days, also recording when they brush their teeth. They then identify food that they think and healthy and unhealthy and those that contain sugar that could cause tooth decay. They look at food...

This activity requires students to generate patterns created by the subtraction of integers. Students are asked to record their findings and to explore whether they are able to work backwards.

The resource includes a hand out and a blank grid which can be duplicated for student use. The teachers' notes...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Recognise what is meant by a ‘species’.

• Recognise that there are differences between individuals within a species, and this is called variation.

• ...

This Nuffield Primary Science book is for use with the Variety of Life topic. It consists of 11 colourful, and highly illustrated, double-page spreads aimed at students aged 7-9. The book ends with a glossary and index.

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students convert functions into an appropriate form for differentiating or integrating and then differentiate and integrate negative and fractional powers of x. Before starting the activity students should be able to differentiate and integrate polynomial functions and...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of differentiation. They include an introduction to differentiation, a technique used to calculate the gradient or slope of a graph at different points, a table of common functions and their derivatives, as well as linearity rules which, when used with a table...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of differentiation which are suitable for students studying mathematics at A Level, as well as those students for whom mathematics is an integral part of their course. Some of the topics covered include, differentiation from first principles, a table of common...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of differentiation, often used in the field of engineering. They include an introduction to differentiation and its uses, a table of common functions and their derivatives, as well as the rules used to enable the differentiation of a wide range of functions....

This excel file plots both quadratic and cubic functions along with the graphs of their first and second differential equations.

By specifying the values of the coefficients of either the quadratic or cubic function...

This RISP activity introduces the subject of differentiation. Rather than start from first principles or learning a rule, the activity suggests using a graphing package to generate data. Starting with a quadratic graph, students find the gradient of the curve using a straight line graph and are encouraged arrive at...
