KS3 maths - EVolution of vehicle sales
EV refers to Electric Vehicles and in this lesson pupils explore data, statistics, graphs and infographics related to road traffic and emissions from cars in the UK. They will critique graphs, read scales and calculate percentages looking at trends in vehicle registrations and proportions of types of newly...
KS3 maths - trees for net zero
In this lesson students develop their estimation and proportional reasoning skills, developing a sense of scale of large numbers, in the context of planting trees to achieve net zero.
Students explore estimates around the numbers of trees people are planting and what this looks like in terms of land use as...
KS3 maths – extreme weather
In this lesson students examine whether reports of extreme cold weather provide evidence that global warming is not happening. They look at the New York Times graphs of summer temperature distributions for the northern hemisphere for different periods and interrogate/critique these graphs.
Students will read...
KS3 maths – trees and carbon capture
In this lesson students explore data showing how much carbon dioxide different species of tree absorb from the atmosphere.
Students interpret data, statistics, graphs and infographics and make predictions and draw conclusions in the context of considering why trees are good for the environment. Students will...
Loci in the Argand Diagram
This MEI resource for complex numbers demonstrates loci in the Argand diagram. In the complex plane the horizontal axis are real numbers and on the vertical axis are imaginary numbers.
The excel file uses sliders to alter the position of the point on the plane. The point can be picked up and moved into all...
MEI Online Resources provide a selection of resources on Matrix Transformations for AQA FP1. These include detailed notes on stretches, enlargements, rotations, reflections and composite transformations. There are study plans, exercises for students to complete and demonstrations which show how various ways in...
Measuring Inequalities
From the Integrating Mathematical Problem Solving project by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI), this activity shows that income is not equally distributed among all the inhabitants of a country. This can be shown visually using a graph and also measured. The mathematical ideas covered are:
•...
This collection of six engineering resources produced by Mathematics in Education and Industry (MEI) for the Royal Academy of Engineering cover a range of practical applications of mathematics in an engineering context. A wide variety of mathematical topics are covered including vectors, scalar products,...
