I've enjoyed starting to build mrhardymaths.co.uk - providing quick Do Nows, and practice/revision sheets. If you've taken a look - I'd love to know what you think.

Appears this is also true for fascism.

Student loan interest is back in the news again, and rightly so. About 18 months ago, I wrote a blog post about the impact student loans have on take home wages and how it's getting worse. Back then, I said my student loan debt was £70,000. Today:

Packed room as usual for @mathsjem.bsky.social session reintroducing the wonderful Don Steward problems. Five years since we lost him.

In #MathsToday I ran a lunchtime session with some year 12 students where we looked at this activity. Trying to get them into the mindset of "just trying things and talking about what you're doing", with the eventual idea of leading to Oxbridge-interview-style questions share.google/RtVNN66Y9bq1...

Got these questions ON REPEAT with my year 13s at the moment. Almost finished integration and these crop up basically every lesson in #Alevelmaths #MathsToday

Trickier Surds questions with Y11 in #MathsToday I love writing questions based on fun maths challenge qus and found these I wrote a while ago that I really like PPT on old blog post here: chelekmaths.com/2023/06/20/s...

Deriving the Compound Angle Formulae today. I quite like numbering the triangles first so the workings don’t look *too* messy #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

Completing the square - negative coefficient of x

#Mathstoday School Internet wasn't working very well so not as much done as would have been liked (at least next week is off for us) Some of my year 10s got to challenge themselves with these lovely Corbett questions.

#Mathstoday Love these questions the year 10s did for factorising quadratics. Gave students a lot of the scaffolding they needed allowing them to move onto similar ones without the scaffolding after.

#MathsToday Year 8 looked at Square numbers and used them to problem solve sums.

A silly bit of interweaving or a useful task? @nathanday.bsky.social

Lovely #oracy work on indices in #MathsToday. We haven't covered negative indices yet but this got them pondering negative indices and considering non integer values for a and b as well as 0 and 1. Looking forward to delving deeper next lesson.

I really do think that colour is helpful to identify steps in multi stage problems. But there is also scope to use it to link parts of a solution to the words in the question.

❤️ Love this ❤️ @mathforge.org has done what I’ve never been organised enough to do myself, and catalogued every #geometrypuzzle I’ve ever posted on social media. It looks amazing!

Helping pupils to transfer their understanding into novel context is a notoriously difficult thing to do, but there are some strategies that you can try out. Take a look at our sketchnote to get started.

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 was rubbing this off the board as Y7 came in for the next lesson, and two of them asked why I was teaching discrimination in maths. (I told them they’d have to do A Level to find out!)

With Year 12 today we were looking at remainder theorem and we did the very lovely true or false task from Integral maths. See also here my mini-whiteboard check before letting them get on which was nice as it forced them to think about the positions of the numbers. #Alevelmaths #mathstoday

#MathsToday "Slanty" shapes were turned into right shapes by imagining them as stacks of paper which needed a push. This helped us identify needed lengths and ignore distractions. The aim was long-term learning, not short-term performance obtained by using formulae. Time will tell.

Today’s Y13 starter - I really like how c & d can be solved either by changing the inequality and using the original distribution, or by transforming the distribution and using the original values. #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

Last minute #Alevelmaths homework planning for this afternoon and just discovered these - exactly what I needed for a binomial expansion homework. Thanks Jethwa maths if you are on here! www.jethwamaths.com/pure-1---wor...

Made this for my Year 7s and Year 8s tomorrow after @joausten.bsky.social's fab session on Number Sense at #Mathsconf39. Will be very interesting to see how it goes! #MathsToday

mrmanmaths.wordpress.com/2025/10/12/m... My reflections on #MathsConf39 organised by @lasalleed.bsky.social A summary of my workshop will come soon! #Mathstoday

Loved discussing some excellent maths tasks in @nathanday.bsky.social’s session. Great to have the opportunity to dig into what makes them so good and how they could be adapted. #MathsConf39

During our #MathsConf39 session, Jason and I revealed our new project: The History and Maths in Education Network (historyand.mathsy.space) which aims to facilitate discussion and sharing of resources & ideas amongst folks interested in using history themes to enrich maths education. 🏛️🎓 #MathsToday

Always fascinating to get a window on how other people teach specific topics; like this from @jwrightmaths.bsky.social in session 3 #MathsConf39

Yesterday I spoke about patterns in Don Steward's answers at #mathsconf39. Coincidentally I was revising with my Y7 daughter this morning (she has a test tomorrow) & gave her two of Don's algebra pyramids. She was delighted to get the same answer twice so I checked the rest... :)

Lots of new video tutorials added to the website to help with GCSE Further Maths (CCEA) 🎬 MANY more will be added over the next couple of weeks 👍 corbettmaths.com/gcse-further...

Some of my #ALevelMaths classes are still queuing up outside my classroom, even though I repeatedly tell them to go in if I'm not there (the corridors get quite busy, otherwise) I've now taken to shouting "YOU ARE NOT VAMPIRES! YOU DO NOT NEED TO BE INVITED IN!" down the corridor 😅🧛‍♂️🧛‍♀️

I love all the resources from @draustinmaths, they are always well thought out. If you need more of these, you can create this type of activity with randomly generated questions on many topics on my site. Choose 'Codebreaker' as Activity Type. generator.interactive-maths.com/maths-questi...

🚨 New on @drfrostmaths.bsky.social: AQA GCSE past papers are now live! ➕ 2,000+ exam-style questions added 🎯 Interactive past papers with auto marking 📝 More variety & flexibility for all exam board teachers Perfect for lesson planning, homework & revision. 🔗 buff.ly/mOhJDm8

Really enjoyed today’s Y7 lesson: linking function machines, telling the ‘story’ of a variable, substitution and sequences, in order to generate sequences from an expression. I love these lessons when it feels like everything comes together! #MathsToday

A very short primer on mixing degrees of arc with degrees of angle for circle theorems. #UKMathsChat #iTeachMath Historically degrees measured arcs and arcs measured angles. This might feel uncomfortable but remember how we measure an angle today … with a protractor … measuring around an arc. 1/6

In #MathsToday I made 40 A Level teachers colour in representations of the binomial distribution. This is your regular reminder that if you teach #ALevelMaths you should definitely try to join your local Maths Hub’s A Level Pedagogy group. There is some brilliant stuff going on all over England.

New meta-analysis finds AI feedback performs about as well as human feedback, but I think this is more to do with how poor human feedback has been is rather than how good AI feedback is. In other words, the bar is quite low here. www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10....
