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...

From the Nuffield Foundation, these resources offer a wide range of ideas that will encourage primary children to think about the design and production of different items.

The activities range in their degree of difficulty and help young children to develop basic skills such as cutting, drawing and sticking...

The Design and Technology Association supports and champions design and technology education in schools. They aim to provide teachers with the tools, knowledge and information they need to become more effective, more experienced and more efficient, with access to expert opinions and high quality resources.

This is one of a set of resources developed to support the teaching of the primary national curriculum. They are designed to support the delivery of key topics within science and design and technology. This resource involves learners producing a crossword recapping key terms in the topics studied.

Crossword...

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...

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.

This resource contains eleven problems requiring students to explore where turning points occur, match statements about functions to statements about derivative functions and gradients of graphs at specific points on the curve, explore the tangent and normal to a curve, suggest a possible graph given information...

This resource contains eight instant maths ideas designed to provide the opportunity for students to explore conversion graphs, compare imperial and metric units, estimate everyday measurements and explore the nature of different dimensions. The student resource sheet requires students to convert between different...

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

In the ‘DISCUSS regression and correlation’...

This A-level tutorial video follows on from the the distance, speed and time video.  It looks at the terms displacement and velocity and how they differ from speed and time.  An example of a displacement / time and velocity / time graph is given and discussed.  A...

The ability to accurately observe, dissect and record an organism is a key skill for biology students. Many students are intimidated by the idea of making a scientific drawing, and struggle to develop their skills in this area.

This resource is designed to meet the specifications for the A-level...

This resource is designed to meet the specifications for the A-level practical endorsement in England (CPAC). However, it will make a valuable guide to dissection and scientific drawing of a flower for those following a variety of different specifications.

The ability to accurately observe, dissect and...

With this a-level video tutorial, the presenter talks about how we get the equation speed = distance / time and then looks at the differences between a distance / time and a speed / time graph.  It also demonstrates what the area under the graph represents as well as the gradient.  This can be followed by the...
