#mathstoday double lesson with yr11 so cracked out the paper 1 predicted from @1stclassmaths.bsky.social students got 5 mins to work then we watched the work solutions for the question. Wanted to show the students how effective this can be.

#mathstoday reminding yr11 of some of the great features of the casio classwiz. We looked at HCF, LCM, product of primes, percentage button and substitution. And this is only scratching the surface!

#mathstoday exploring quadratic graphs with yr8. Love sketching and discussing turning points, lines of symmetry and roots. Also great to discuss how this knowledge is needed at ks4, a-level and beyond.

And Foundation “Best Guess” GCSE Maths Paper 1 for Edexcel here: static1.squarespace.com/static/67560...

Practice Paper 1H for Edexcel #mathstoday www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

#mathstoday we looked at dividing decimals by writing the division as a fraction, finding an equivalent fraction with an integer in the denominator then carrying out the calculation. A method from @mathsjem.bsky.social in her book on mathematical methods.

Exam tip: always remember to include units/percentage signs etc when answering questions.

#mathstoday teaching year 8 completing a table of values by interpreting y =mx + c and understanding gradient as a ratecof change. Also linking to nth term and finding the difference between terms.

"The best way to revise maths is to do maths" - Y11 maths teachers around now. This QR code poster generates simple revision grids of 12 questions loosely* tied to GCSE grades. *This will get better over the years. (I'm almost 3 years into the MathsBot curriculum project now)

I saw someone the other day post something similar to this At the end of each question I have put hints as to what the marks on the mark scheme are for. I have done this for one of the Edexcel Foundation Mock Sets and think my group will find it useful as a scaffold. www.mrchapmanmaths.com/revision

(Yet) another "Blank is Best" slide used in #MathsToday. I made up the coordinates of A and B and Y10 had to try and fill the rest.

New post: Are book looks a waste of time? For some, they are a meaningless scourge. For others, they are a vital accountability lever that provides insight into the lived curriculum. Read on for more, and please share if you can! carouselteachlearnlead.substack.com/p/are-book-l...

#mathstoday after 2 weeks of building skills on linear graphs yr10 put everything together and worked out the equation of a tangent to a circle

100 Days To Go: youtu.be/UmKVgOD4OQg The 100 Days To Go Revision Sessions start today!

I'd consider these to all be in the realm of Different Surface Same Deep, I reckon. Some more available here: interwovenmaths.com/daydream-int... and here: interwovenmaths.com/making-conne...

#mathstoday Rearranging equations of lines with yr10 so can identify gradient and y-intercept. Linking back to when we made 0 the subject for solving quadratics. Trying to help the students identify links and remember previous topics.

New practice grid on rearranging scientific formulae added to the website this morning. Download it and much more at www.draustinmaths.com #UKMathsChat #MathsToday

#mathstoday Yr8 learning to use their calculator for working out the nth term of a sequence. The casio can do loads. The stats function can do so much more than averages.

#mathstoday After teaching yr8 how to generate sequences without a calculator today i taught them how to use the table function on the casio to do the same thing.

#mathstoday Introducing gradient to year 10 as a rate of change. 'As x increases by 1, how does y change'. When working with gradient will represent change in x to change in y as a ratio then write in 1:n to get the gradient. Great opportunity to link to other skills.

GCSE Maths Teachers! The schedule for the half past papers is up. Hand them out as study / homework each week to your Year 11s, they can do it along with me using the QR code video on the front and I’ll be LIVE on Thursdays on YouTube to help further. 7-7:30pm (F) and 7:30-8 (H)
