Up and Across

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:3 Challenge Level:3 Challenge Level:3

Experiment with the interactivity of "rolling" regular polygons, and explore how the different positions of the red dot affects its vertical and horizontal movement at each stage.

Diamond Collector

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Collect as many diamonds as you can by drawing three straight lines.

problem icon

You Tell the Story

Stage: 2 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Can you create a story that would describe the movement of the man shown on these graphs? Use the interactivity to try out our ideas.

Surprising Transformations

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:3 Challenge Level:3 Challenge Level:3

I took the graph y=4x+7 and performed four transformations. Can you find the order in which I could have carried out the transformations?

problem icon

Reflecting Lines

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Investigate what happens to the equations of different lines when you reflect them in one of the axes. Try to predict what will happen. Explain your findings.

problem icon

Fence It

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

If you have only 40 metres of fencing available, what is the maximum area of land you can fence off?

problem icon

Translating Lines

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Investigate what happens to the equation of different lines when you translate them. Try to predict what will happen. Explain your findings.

Charlie's Mapping

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Charlie has created a mapping. Can you figure out what it does? What questions does it prompt you to ask?

problem icon

Exploring Simple Mappings

Stage: 3 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:1

Explore the relationship between simple linear functions and their graphs.

Spaces for Exploration

Stage: 3 and 4

Alf Coles writes about how he tries to create 'spaces for exploration' for the students in his classrooms.

problem icon

Matchless

Stage: 3 and 4 Challenge Level: Challenge Level:2 Challenge Level:2

There is a particular value of x, and a value of y to go with it, which make all five expressions equal in value, can you find that x, y pair ?
