The teaching materials in this resource were produced by the Plant Nutrition working group of the Children’s Learning in Science Project (CLIS). The scheme includes teaching strategies that are intended to help students understand difficult concepts.

Architect’s skills, from Cre8ate maths, will develop the process skills involved in understanding and making sense of mathematical information. Students have to give unambiguous descriptions to enable their partner to build an identical copy of a hidden shape, whilst the partner has to listen and interpret the...

In this podcast from the Natural Environment Research Council's (NERC) Planet Earth Online collection, Richard Hollingham reports from an unusual and somewhat cold location - onboard the British Antarctic Survey's RRS James Clark Ross which was stuck in the ice for two weeks 1000 kilometres from the North Pole. He...

A podcast from the Planet Earth Online collection and the Natural Environment Research Council (NERC). As the map of Earth's gravity – as revealed by the European Space Agency's (ESA) sleek GOCE satellite – comes into sharper focus, Richard Hollingham speaks to a researcher who tells us what early results from the...

This resource from the European Space Agency climate change resource pack provides background information on the role of Arctic sea ice upon the Earth’s climate system. All activities are set in the context of the Northwest Passage. Changes in the amount of sea ice can disrupt normal ocean circulation, leading to...

This resource consists of seventeen work cards each requiring students to investigate some aspect of area and perimeter of shapes. Associated with each card is a student help sheet and comprehensive teacher notes detailing assumed knowledge for each task, the purpose of...

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:
