This resource provides a range of indoor and outdoor practical activities, suitable for students across the primary phase. Activities are designed to help children identify and name a variety of common plants and animals and link to work on minibeasts, habitats and classification. Many of the activities are cross-...

'Straight forward with science' offers a straightforward, but fun, approach to key science learning. Each book explores basic scientific principles and shows them in action, while simple activities and experiments bring the science to life.

'Classification and evolution' describes how we group, or classify,...

This teaching guide provides a range of ideas and resources for teaching about classification and evolution at A level. Curriculum links include classification, binomial, kingdom, phylogeny, and evolution.

Although produced to support the teaching of OCR AS and A Level Biology A specifications (H020 and H420...

One of a series of science titles aimed at Key Stage 2, this book looks at the classification of living things into various orders, genera, species, and so on.

This item is one of over 25,000 physical resources available from the Resources Collection. The Archive Collection covers over 50 years of curriculum development in the STEM subjects. The Contemporary Collection includes all the latest publications from UK educational publishers.

In this resource from the DfE Standards Unit, students learn to name and classify polygons according to their properties, develop mathematical language to describe the similarities and differences between shapes and develop convincing explanations as to why combinations of particular properties are impossible. (...

This resource develops the concept of exploring the relationship between the slopes of parallel and perpendicular lines. There is a particular focus on finding lines that are parallel and perpendicular by using their equations. The work extends into identifying and using intercepts.

Students are presented...

The books in the 'Classifying living things' series looks at how and why we group animals. Each book starts with an introduction to classification, explaining why grouping organisms helps us to understand the natural...

These diagnostic questions and response activities (contained in the zip file) support students in being able to:

• Use properties to identify that an object is made of metal.

• Use properties to identify that an object is made off a ceramic.

• Recognise that polymers...

This series, designed for key stage 3, caters for all abilities through an easy-to-use format. It encourages exploration and investigation, relating science to everyday situations and features step-by-step guides to...

This lesson develops the concept of identifying when two quantities vary in direct proportion to each other. Students enhance their ability to:

• Distinguish between direct proportion and other functional relationships
• Solve proportionality problems using efficient methods

The...

This lesson develops the concept of distinguishing between rational and irrational numbers. In particular, students will enhance their ability in:

• Classifying numbers as rational or irrational.
• Moving between different representations of rational and irrational numbers.

 An...

The first activity in this resource asks students to consider x = 5 and answer the question ‘what value is y’? An initial discussion builds up understanding of graphical representations of linear equations.

This lesson develops solving pairs of linear equations by considering their graphical representations...
