Love teaching maths, speedrunning maths and making maths worksheets at www.chelekmaths.com https://www.youtube.com/@chelekmaths9019
As is traditition I did the Intermediate Maths Challenge in timed conditions so I can chat through my thoughts with my classes that sat it too! Harder than usual I thought and made some claaasssic mistakes but had a great time! (Thumbnail is particularly silly)

We use these as an intro into these kinds of questions, slowly builds up difficulty so students can practice the process on ones that aren't too crazy!

Used this question with Year 12s in #Alevelmaths #Mathstoday
Big discussion about "negative area" and the differences between each of the answers!
Also as always using the @studymaths.bsky.social mathsbot cam!

Using visualiser and mini whiteboards for feedback with year 9s in #MathsToday
Still not sure what my favourite way of doing these questions is...
Had my favourite reading year in 2025 - also very much enjoyed tracking everything on #storygraph. Will do some sort of fun book year in review thing over the next few days!

Our Wives under the Sea is the book that stayed with me the most all year! So sad so haunting so memorable

Ended up teaching median from a Histograms in #MathsToday to my Year 11s - one of those #AlevelMaths topics that sneaks into GCSE. How does reflecting the Histogram affect the median...
Wrote up a little blogpost on it here: chelekmaths.com/2025/12/17/v...
Column vector for a translation 😊

Worksheet where students need to describe a new function after a transformation has taken place
Finishing up transformations of functions with Year 11s in #Mathstoday Students were struggling with describing functions after the transformations so made this to practice it and then will try it out with A Level classes later
Worksheet can be found here: chelekmaths.com/a-level/

Worksheet where students need to find the range of different functions and then need to find functions of their own given the range
Domain and Range with year 13 in #MathsToday #AlevelMaths - lots to discuss on the second part of this worksheet!

We live streamed the second half on YouTube which made for a very very unexciting video but definitely added to the fun of it all

Some of our wonderful department finishing off our Mathsathon at 10pm last night! We had spent the day at work doing 100 GCSE Higher Papers as a team to raise money for Movember. Was unsurprisingly very silly but very enjoyable.

#MathsToday
Mock Time for year 11s so also a fun time to make resources based on topics they struggled with!
Wrote a post about it here: chelekmaths.com/2025/11/19/e...
Some nice questions were made on the way #MathsToday
I wrote a bit about it here! I always like doing reverse chain rule first and then showing how you can use substitutions after (like how you can use substitution to differentiate with chain rule although we usually teach it by some sort of INSIDE X OUTSIDE thing too)

Discussing cursed methods in #mathstoday. Using a common denominator to divide algebraic fractions being near the top of the list...

Finishing up Quadratic Inequalities in #Mathstoday with some tricky compound questions

Came after us doing these together and discussing whether we could blend our quadratics with our trig inequalities...
04.11.2025 20:09 — 👍 0 🔁 0 💬 0 📌 0A Year 11 student wrote this question as an extension in #MathsToday following on from the questions we worked through below 😮
Definitely will be a fun qu to give my #AlevelMaths classes next week!
Definitely sketching a graph for now with year 11s, transferable skill from how we have been doing quadratic inequalities too 😊

A series of questions involving Trig Inequalities
Been teaching Quadratic Inequalities and Trig Graphs to my year 11s recently so put this together for them as a challenge!
Will also give it to my year 12s and see how they do...
#MathsToday #Alevelmaths
Doing an adaptation of @mrlevmaths.bsky.social's variation theory for Session 1 of "Developing A Level pedagogy" for GLOW Maths Hub on Monday 3rd Nov!
Can't wait for it!
And a plug for anyone based in Gloucs and Worcs and teach A Level, then sign up here: amsp.org.uk/event/73f968...
So good! Thank you so much for pointing this out - I will dive in now!

Looking through our upcoming year 7 lessons and wanted to teach commutativity a bit more explicitly so got to make some questions to get students practising in #MathsToday
Anyone else seen any other resources for this somewhere?
chelekmaths.com/2025/10/23/m...
Did a little write up here with a link to the PPT :)
Wrote a very quick write up of our session at #Mathsconf39 about using Variation Theory in #AlevelMaths including the PPT that we used.
If you came to the session and have any feedback for us please do let me know here or via email chelekmaths@gmail.com

Looky-likeys is such a good word for them - some of my favourite sets of questions to write!
