This resource is part of a collection of Nuffield Maths resources that explore Algebra and Maths. The demand is roughly equivalent to that in Higher Level GCSE and Level 2 Functional Mathematics.

The resource can be used when introducing linear graphs: this shows how to draw a graph using formulae in Excel....

This resource uses height data from the pilot of CensusAtSchool to encourage Key Stage Three and Key Stage Four students to investigate growth. They are asked to draw conclusions using both calculations and graphs and also consider other factors affecting growth. Students develop skills in interpreting tables,...

This lesson, linked to the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, aims to answer the question 'How often will a heatwave hit the UK?'

Students examine datasets to explore the frequency with which hot events occur and are required to interpret and draw box and whisker plots. Students are...

This resource sets out the knowledge, skills and understanding that trainee teachers will need in order to be able to manage their students’ behaviour. Effective teacher training incorporates activities and teaching that leads to these outcomes and prepares trainees to manage behaviour confidently and with...

A range of resources from the Nuffield Foundation for students to develop and reveal their capability longer more open tasks requiring designing, making and evaluating are necessary. Sometimes these activities are referred to as projects, or design and making...

Make supports students to invent and explore multiple possibilities, testing them openly and often, and learning quickly before making well-informed decisions about the right ideas to develop.

This stage involves:  

• Brainstorming multiple ideas
• Filtering and selecting ideas
• ...

Number-up sheets contain a sheet of 40 questions designed as practice of basic skills. Students complete the questions, record how long the exercise took and their score once marked. A1 requires students to perform addition, subtraction, multiplication and division using single digits. J1 uses a mixture of one and...

This booklet provides useful guidance on how Level of Response questions should be approached by students and how they are marked.

LoR questions allow students to be credited for demonstrating

• their scientific knowledge and understanding and their ability to apply these to familiar and...

This series of resources supports the teaching and learning of the computer programming language Python. The series of activities, produced by Code Club have support sheets for each of the activity projects. They are easy to follow and support progression in the learning. The activities require studenst to: *...

This Practical Action resource enables students to consider the need to reduce the negative impacts of  products on the environment and people. It enables students to evaluate products throughout their lifecycle and learn about inspirational products, companies and access to sustainable design briefs. The...

The flight from Singapore from London takes 13 hours and 35 minutes. Given the take off time and the fact that Singapore is 7 hours ahead of London, students are asked to find the local time the plane lands in London. Students are posed a series of problems and tasks relating to other flights between Singapore and...

This activity makes the leap from Blockly to Python programming. The 'grocery van driving challenge' is reduced from previous lessons to allow students to concentrate on syntax and correct coding using a limited set of instructions. Matching of Blockly and Python code is encouraged to assist the transition.

This National Strategies booklet describing teaching approaches that can be used to develop mental mathematics in its broadest sense beyond national curriculum level five. Each area is covered by looking at teaching strategies, activities and progression charts.
