This activity looks at climate change and its effects on succession in a location in Norfolk over 12000 years ago.

Students carry out a simulation of a bog core analysis, based on work by the University Corporation for Atmospheric Research together with data from the Department of Geography, University of...

The first sheet of this excel file shows a box and whisker diagram where the defining points can be altered. The second sheet shows two box and whisker diagrams to allow comparison between distributions. The next sheet shows a box and whisker diagram for students to...

In this resource from CensusAtSchool, students are guided through the use of box and whisker plots and the use of quartiles and the interquartile range. Students compare two sets of data of student heights by drawing box and whisker plots.

This is an opportunity to use graphic calculators.

This Study Plus unit from the National Strategies develops an understanding of volume and surface area of 3D objects through exploring nets.

There are opportunities for practical work in all of the lessons. The unit looks at perimeter, area and volume in context. In addition, there are opportunities to...

Boxes and bottles come in all shapes and sizes. These Cre8ate maths activities explore some of the mathematics behind packaging decisions taken by manufacturers, they provide a platform for students to make conjectures and find efficient ways of recording results to justify claims they have made. In Boxing stock...

This resource contains two excel programs; ‘Removing and Collecting Like Terms’ and ‘Multiplying Out and Simplifying’, each containing a series of interactive spreadsheets designed to explore how to deal with brackets.

Braille is a system of dots which enables blind people to read and this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, provides the opportunity for students to explore the patterns used in this code. The activities are designed to prompt class discussion and mathematical thinking, while engaging...

Produced by The Centre for Industry Education Collaboration (CIEC), these resources help students understand asthma, its diagnosis and treatment.

Through role play, practical work and demonstrations, students investigate lung structure and function, peak flow and breathing, and look at the medicines used in...

Students are presented with increasingly challenging algebra problems to solve. Each wall consist of three bricks in the lower row, two bricks in the middle row and one brick on the top row. Students complete the wall by adding two algebraic terms to find the term which sits in the brick above. However, in most...

Six activity sheets produced by the Institute of Physics (IOP) to accompany the MODEL Project's Bright Sparks video.

Worksheet One takes an overview of the topic. Worksheets Two - Five are targeted at specific...

In this module students will study barnacle morphology, life histories and life styles as Darwin did. He based his classification and search for a common ancestor upon his studies. Recent work using genetic and molecular evidence and scanning electron microscopy shows how some of the key difficulties in drawing the...

This resource pack aims to be your ‘one-stop-shop’ for supporting you during British Science Week 2018, but it can be used at any time. The theme for the 2018 British Science Week is exploration and discovery, encouraging young people to think about everyday discoveries and how they affect their lives by exploring...

This activity pack provides a range of activities that promote cross-curricular learning, so that STEM can be linked to other curriculum subjects and to student's own backgrounds, lives and interests. It has been designed for British Science Week 2024 on the theme of 'time'.

Activities are suitable for...

 These materials look at three possible projects that relate to sustainable travel.

* Communications project - students gather information and explain about ‘green’ transport policies, reducing and offsetting carbon footprints.

* Practical project - students investigate how to compare carbon dioxide...
