This collection of resources from the Geological Society are historic and have not been recently updated. However, the content of them may still be relevant in some educational contexts.

A collection of resources from the Geological Society aimed at primary-aged pupils including activities to explore dinosaurs, rocks, volacnoes and earthquakes.

A collection of resources from the Geological Society aimed at secondary-aged pupils including activities to explore energy, water and mineral resources, volcanoes and earthquakes.

Geology: Structure of the Earth was a topic designed by the Northumberland Supported Self Study Unit at Northumberland County Council in the early 1990s for post-16 students. Comprising six units, the topic aimed to not only teach about geological features of the Earth but also to develop learning skills which...

This resource contains many examples of different kinds of geometric pattern. The introduction begins with border patterns; simple patterns which are easily reproduced by students.

This is followed by examples of tile patterns. Geometric patterns 3 to 6 are concerned with cyclotomy; the division of a circle...

This excel file allows students to explore the successive terms of a Geometric Series. The first term and the common ratio can be altered and the successive terms and sum of the series shown on bar charts. The formula for the sum of a Geometric Series is derived and the...

This series of interactive excel sheets help investigate geometric series and progressions.

The first sheet generates the terms of a geometric progression, for |r| ≥ 1, and the value of a further term. A new sequence...

Five squares are given. Each square contains a pattern of squares or triangles that become smaller and smaller until they are infinitely small. The challenge is to work out what fraction of each square is shaded. The challenge provides an introduction to the concept of geometric progressions and the idea of a limit...

This resource helps students to recognise geometrical shapes and their properties.

The resource is part of the Nuffield Maths Level 1 Foundation resource collection.

There a series of short tasks designed to assess how well students understand a range of geometric concepts, including Pythagoras’ theorem.

• Other topics covered comprise:
• Circumference of a circle
• Area of a rectangle
• Angle measure
• Angles at a point

This...

Mathcentre provide this resource which covers the slope intercept form, an aspect of geometry that involves the gradient and vertical intercept of a graph, which can be established from the terms of a linear equation.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions are provided, together with relevant diagrams...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of geometry and are suitable for students studying mathematics at A Level, those for whom mathematics is an integral part of their course and some apply to GCSE Higher Level students. The topics covered include the geometry of a circle, polar coordinates, the...

Mathcentre provide these resources which cover aspects of geometry often used in the field of engineering. They include the gradient and intercept of straight line graphs, polar coordinates and converting degrees and radians.

Comprehensive notes, with clear descriptions, for each resource are provided,...

Designed to improve confidence in mathematics, these resources from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, focus on geometry and were developed particularly for primary teachers and those non-specialists who teach mathematics in the lower secondary years.

Each section offers an overview of a...

This collection from Inquiry Maths contains three geometry themed prompts covering surface area of a cuboid, areas of squares and circles and shapes with equal areas. Each seemingly simple prompt is designed to intrigue students, leading to a rich mathematical task that can be explored in a variety of ways...
