With this simulation, students build an understanding of solution concentration by varying amounts of solute, solvent, and solution. Experimenting with several different chemicals in solid and concentrated solution form, students can develop qualitative and quantitative relationships.

The first sheet of this excel file shows a set of data in a scatter plot. The line of best fit can be drawn and a description of the type of correlation can be revealed along with the equation of the trend line. The other sheet shows the value of cars at various ages. The scatter plot shows the data and there are a...

The first sheet of this interactive excel file shows a triangle ABC with the lengths of appropriate sides labelled a, b, and c. The six versions of the Cosine Rule are shown with each side and the cosine of each angle as the subject of the formula.

In this activity, students use computer software to explore the impact of car crashes under varying conditions and the effects on a simulated dummy. Students can select a car, a crash point and a speed, then watch an animation of a crash and see the results as physical impact on the dummy and as numerical data....

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students create and solve their own equations where the unknown appears more than once and learn that there may be more than one way of solving such equations. Before doing this activity students should be able to solve equations where the unknown appears only once....

The first two sheets of this excel file shows sets of data about the weight of cows in two herds. The cumulative frequencies can be revealed and the quartiles and median are shown derived from the cumulative frequency graph. The next sheet shows the comparison of the two herds as shown by the box and whisker...

The first sheet of this excel file shows the number of passengers per flight from London to Paris. The raw data is shown in a grouped frequency table and the midpoint of each group can be revealed as well as each stage in the calculation of the estimate of the mean. The next two sheets each show two sets of data...

This selection of spreadsheets, designed by the Primary National Strategies to aid teaching and learning, tackles data, graphs, charts, measures and money, in a variety of ways.

Carroll diagram allows either shapes or numbers to be dragged into an either one or two criteria table. The...

In this activity, students take the role of a graphic designer. Their task is to create a mascot for a new primary school. Students use a web-based digital drawing tool package to draw their design. Students are encouraged to work both individually and in small groups...

This interactive excel file has separate sheets which deal with direct proportion where the functions are linear, quadratic, cubic and square root.

Each sheet begins with a statement of the proportional relationship,...

Electricity is an analogy that provides a way of helping students develop a real understanding of simple electric circuits. This interactive resource is provided by the Association for Science Education (ASE).

This multimedia package was developed by the Gatsby Science Enhancement Programme to provide teachers with clear and consistent ways of talking about energy. Energy is a particularly difficult concept to explain. These resources aim to cut through the confusion that often surrounds the energy concept, and examines...

This simulation allows students to learn about conservation of energy with a skater dude! Students can explore different tracks and investigate the relationship between the kinetic energy, potential energy, and thermal energy of the skater. They can also build their own tracks, ramps and jumps for the skater.

In this activity, students are required to find a safe route through a notoriously perilous region of space called the Twilight Nebula.

They will be faced with a number of different threats but can maximise their chances of survival using a series of threat assessment readouts. Students will compare fraction...

This activity requires students to investigate the mathematics behind fashion trends. The software contains an introductory short film that shows the CEO and Store Manager of a London boutique discussing how to be successful in running a fashion business. His...
