Lucy Bronze on how she decided to blast her penalty down the middle (and score).

“Statistically it’s risky for the goal keeper to stand still… so yeah, I love maths”.

This is the third post I’ve seen today about a fake 991! One purchased from an amazon seller and one from temu (!?).

Excellent. Many of my students were taught fractions as ‘sharing between x amount of people’. They’re stumped when this interpretation falls down (‘how can I share a pizza with half a person!?’). Lovely explanation and multiple counter methods for this Howie! #mathstoday

It’s hard to unlearn things when teaching ahaha. Some of those C questions from the old spec really did require thinking outside the box (I did not enjoy that back then).

Hey, you gave them a headstart right? 😂

Here was mine! But very similar - I kept accidentally veering towards the sec identity 🤦🏼‍♀️

Dual strips (4x2) middle (3) symmetrical singles (I guess, 1x2)

Thanks for the idea, I’m going to use this with my students!

In #MathsToday my year 7's had their 2nd lesson on expanding brackets. We compared different methods, with all by the end of the lesson choosing grid method or claw, having all used algebra tiles last lesson. We ended with: expand 3(x-5)-2(x-5) to check whether they would rely too much on a method.

I had a Y11 student drop this one on me a few months ago and now I can’t stop using it 😂
