This resource consists of 22 instant maths ideas, ideal for use as starter questions, extension question or probing questions to assess understanding, requiring students to: * know the names of different kinds of angles * demonstrate the use of angles using physical activities * explore the angles associated with...

This resource contains a collection of dynamic and interactive spreadsheets designed to illustrate teaching points on the topic of angles.

The first sheet provides screens on the following:

This MEP resource from CIMT is taken from text book 7A which covers the mathematics scheme of work for the first half of year 7. This resouce covers; angles: a measure of turn, points of the compass, measuring angles, classifying angles, angles on a line, angles at a point, constructing triangles and finding angles...

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 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.

This scientific literacy activity, from the Institution of Engineering and Technology (IET), looks at the use of radio-frequency identification (RFID) technology, investigating extensions to the use of such technology in various contexts.

Aimed at lower primary, this activity looks at how animals produce offspring which then develop into adults. It contains an activity where adult animals are matched to their offspring and a cut and paste activity which looks at stages in the lifecycle of a frog and the changes as it develops.

In this SATIS Revisited resource, students consider the ethical questions that arise from the conflicts between concern for animal welfare and the need to use animals in medical research.

The aim is to introduce the idea that the discussion of controversial issues relating to the conduct and application of...

This resource uses an information exchange (also known as a 'jigsaw activity') to improve pupils' reading skills and teach them facts about the 5 animal classes.  ...

This activity includes some illustrations of animals and their foods along with a simple cloze activity that children complete using their knowledge of herbivores, carnivores and omnivores, their different teeth and their different diets. This activity has been provided by The Online Dentist.

This resource, produced by ARKive, is designed to teach Key Stage Two children about the strategies animals adopt to survive winter in temperate zones and about the adaptations exhibited by animals in the polar regions. Children compare these strategies and identify similarities and differences in the ways animals...

Produced by Understanding Animal Research, this resource looks at how animals have a central part to play in all sorts of research, not just in the development of drugs. 

This activity illustrates how animals have contributed to space programmes and encourages students to consider the ethical implications of...

This resource, aimed at Key Stage Two, covers the topic areas of all living things and habitats. It includes three investigations which look at:

*Crawling caterpillars

*How seed beetles move in response to light

*Brine shrimps - top, middle or bottom dwellers.

Each practical activity...

This resource provides six activities linked to learning about teeth and digestion in Year 4. It includes activities in which children identify and learn about different teeth and...
