Active Learn Primary Secret Worlds: The Universe Within - Interactive Java Tutorial Secret Worlds: The Universe Within View the Milky Way at 10 million light years from the Earth. Then move through space towards the Earth in successive orders of magnitude until you reach a tall oak tree just outside the buildings of the National High Magnetic Field Laboratory in Tallahassee, Florida. After that, begin to move from the actual size of a leaf into a microscopic world that reveals leaf cell walls, the cell nucleus, chromatin, DNA and finally, into the subatomic universe of electrons and protons. Once the tutorial has completely downloaded, a set of the arrows will appear that allow the user to increase or decrease the view magnitude in Manual mode. Notice how each picture is actually an image of something that is 10 times bigger or smaller than the one preceding or following it. Earth = 12.76 x 10+6 = 12,760,000 meters wide (12.76 million meters) Plant Cell = 12.76 x 10-6 = 0.00001276 meters wide (12.76 millionths of a meter) Contributing Authors David A.

Kangaroo Maths - Kenny's Pouch Welcome to Kenny's Pouch. This section contains piles of free maths resources for use by schools. Follow the links in the left hand menu to find out more. This area of the site has recently had a bit of an overhaul. Completely new Key Stage 4 schemes of work based on the same structure as the KS3 ones, and therefore designed to allow planning for progression across the entire secondary phase The 'Subject Leadership' area has been updated and the Maths Handbook now contains renewed NC Level and GCSE Grade descriptors.

Mathletics Vi Hart: Blog Khanacademy How can we meet the needs of all pupils without differentiation of lesson content? How can we record progress without levels? Thoughts on topical issues of mathematics education from the NCETM’s Director, Charlie Stripp I believe that if we are to adopt a teaching for mastery approach to maths teaching, consistent with the new National Curriculum, we must answer these questions. Many primary teachers have asked my NCETM colleagues and me these questions, and this blog explains our current thinking. We have been informed by the National Curriculum document itself, by teaching we have observed and by the textbooks used in regions and countries that teach maths very successfully, such as Shanghai and Singapore. I also believe the answers to these questions have the potential to reduce teacher workload, as well as improving the mathematical learning of their pupils. The expectation is that the majority of pupils will move through the programmes of study at broadly the same pace. Secure mathematical understanding is developed through doing maths in ways that engage pupils in deep thinking. This can be achieved by:
