This activity looks at binomial expansions from both an algebraic and a graphical perspective. The aim of this activity is to practise a lot of the skills involved in the topic of binomial expansions, where n is not a natural number, in what is perhaps a more interesting context than the standard binomial questions.

Introduction to Differentiation Worksheets and activity to introduce differentiation (not from first principles)

The activity consists of 12 probability statements. Students decide whether the statements are always true, sometimes true or never true. The main point of the activity is to prompt discussion, deepen understanding and address misconceptions.

Locating and identifying Turning Points of curves

A few additional activities to keep your Further Maths students amused...

Matching activities, notes and questions

This is designed as a Year 12 (or Year 11) revision or consolidation activity, looking at all the different ways that we can find the turning point of a quadratic

This is a set of “always true, sometimes true, never true” discussion cards to deepen understanding of moments. They are based on a resource from the excellent STEM learning site but adapted.
