It’s part of proportion 🤷🏼‍♀️😃

175 minutes

I look much worse than you after running so no photo, but 10 miles done 😃

Can schools get free examples of these?

Well I thought if you can do it, so can I! Bedford wasn’t actually too bad, just a few icy puddles!

Where was this? Wasn’t it super icy and slippy? 😳

Got round to reading this which was a fascinating story!

I’m guessing Cosine on a bovine, but my husband straightaway said graph on a calf 🤩

Hi everyone! Please share this to any secondary Maths teachers 😊:
I have created a Christmas Maths exam paper in the style of Edexcel for my year 11 class for a bit of fun. Please feel free to use it too:

Looks fun! 🤩

Great news! 👏🏼

About three months! It was a rollercoaster, mind. 😬

Thank you so much for sharing! Really nice to have them in one place. I’m considering making a question sheet from them for Y11, BUT will it just embed the misconceptions? 🙈

We have a few spaces left on our New to Teaching #ALevelMaths York Summer School - if you are teaching A level maths next year and want 4 days of talking about maths and meeting amazing people you can sign up here! It's even *free* for state funded teachers in England ⭐⭐ amsp.org.uk/event/a6848c...

I taught my Y10 group Sine and Cosine rules this week. They’ve told me they’re ditching SOHCAHTOA and using them instead as they prefer them!
Should we just teach Sine and Cosine rules from the start?

I like setting an old UKMT Junior Maths Challenge from the website - answers are easy to share, the aim is to get as many points as they can in the lesson 😃

1.5km swim in Eastbourne for me 🩵

…and still SOOO relevant today!!

Please do keep us updated!

I agree. I’ve taught this using calculators. I’m with you.

5km swim for me 😃🏊🏻‍♀️

I’d just be a bit wary before finding out more about the person….

Hmm. Sadly B.

And what’s the stuff about changing your name? You can keep your exact same name if you want 🤷🏼‍♀️

There doesn’t seem to be an allowance for that (AQA option 2a), though I get students to do this anyway 🤷🏼‍♀️😊

Calculators only for me! Can be high stakes if they mess up, e.g. put in the wrong mean for a few questions, as mark schemes still reward use of tables… 😳

I've spent this evening making a second "Is it plausible?" worksheet as my first one was really successful with my Y11's. I've tried to add more money sense questions into this one to help.

Hope it helps 🙂

Ah Viennetta! Forgotten about them! 😍

I’m loving teaching this to my Core Maths class! 🤓
