This activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), introduces students to the differences between analogue and digital communication. An analogue signal can be rendered useless by small amounts of interference, whereas a digital signal remains...

This SMILE resource contains two packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of analysing and interpreting data, from reading information from a bar chart to interpreting cumulative frequency graph.

Analysing and interpreting data pack one...

This resource consists of two interactive excel programs. The first deals with basic angle facts and recognition of types of triangle. Depending on how it is used, the second could require the use of Pythagoras' Theorem and trigonometry. The second excel file could also be used to provides problems relating to the...

This worksheet challenges students to answer a series of questions themed around angles and trigonometry. It provides worked examples, examiners top tips and answers to each question. The resource is useful for teaching maths content in design and technology, or as a maths activity sheet.

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 8A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 8.

Angles, bearings and maps covers: measuring angles and naming different angles, angles on parallel lines; vertically opposite angles, corresponding angles, alternate angles,...

From the Nuffield Foundation, the purpose of the module is to develop students’ understanding of angle by exploring rotation in practical situations and by using simple home-made equipment made from card.

Animals and their babies is a beautiful first lifecycle series that charts the unique relationship between a parent animal and its baby.

These downloadable videos and animations are part of the multimedia package Stuff and Substance, and are intended to be used to establish the concept of a substance. The individual video and animation files are provided separately here to allow flexibility in their use. The...

This matching exercise consists of six shapes, six perimeters and six areas . The shapes are an isosceles triangle, a square, a compound shapes made from two rectangles and compound shapes made from a rectangle and a triangle. Dimensions are provided on the diagrams of the shapes, however, in some cases extra...

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

Sessions in this resource look at:

• Area and perimeter (creating connections between topics)
• Area and perimeter (exposing and discussing common misconceptions)
•...

These 20 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, require students to explore the perimeters of rectangles which have the same area, convert between different units, investigate Pick’s theorem, explore the four colour theorem,...

This resource, aimed at early years and lower primary, contains a collection of dynamic and interactive spreadsheets designed to illustrate teaching points on the topics of area and perimeter. Ideal for use with the whole class at the start or end of a lesson it...

This resource consists of two interactive excel files.

Area and Perimeter: Algebraic, Rectangles
The first two sheets...

This SMILE resource contains three packs of games, investigations, worksheets and practical activities supporting the teaching and learning of area and perimeter, from calculating area by counting squares to finding the formula for the area of a trapezium.
