This practical approach to studying natural selection and competition...

Produced by ARKive, this creative activity is designed to teach students aged 11-14 years about the theory of adaptation. It does this by looking specifically at animals' adaptations for movement through different types of habitats. Students learn the definition of adaptation and why animals need adaptations to...

This activity is based upon addition and subtraction of integers, requiring students to find patterns and relationships, develop formulae and prove results.

The resource consists of printable worksheets, teachers' notes and solutions.

The activity can be extended by the use of algebra to explain...

This resource features a selection of questions requiring students to add and subtract fractions and mixed numbers.

The questions are split into three sections: must, should and could. Students are directed to complete the first question in each row. Students then decide whether they are confident enough to...

This lesson develops the concept of adding and subtracting directed numbers. The activities address common misconceptions about the addition and subtraction of directed numbers. Students explain their reasoning using diagrams.

The activities use the ‘charge’ model of directed numbers. For example, a diagram...

A number line is used in this resource, from the Centre for Innovation in Mathematics Teaching, to illustrate how to solve a calculation involving negative numbers. To help correct misconceptions regarding these, the term taking away is used to represent minus and giving back for plus. Thus -8 +6...
