Crawlers, Hot Mulligan, Cavetown and Pierce the Veil. Hello Birmingham

In #MathsToday I did this as a starter on estimation. With the aim of getting pupils to consider which counters are the 'significant' ones.

We started polar coordinates today in online further maths. I gave them 5 mins with desmos and a few pointers and they came up with some amazing polar curves. None of them had heard the word cardiod before though 🤯🤷

Is quali ever going to end 🤣

I'm so mad I have only just got to this bit of @standupmaths.bsky.social book today when I taught reciprocal trig last Monday 🙄 I will definitely be introducing them to SHACHOCAO next lesson 🤣

In #mathstoday I got to rant about notation and how inverse notation and reciprocal notation is ridiculous and should be changed and how we use arcsin and arccos and we want none of this sin^-1 business!

Anguis isn't sure what to make of the Millennium Falcon. Hopefully the stand we bought is sturdy and we aren't woken up tonight by a humungous lego related crashing noise 😳

Why is 67 cropping up in all my lessons?!! Whyyy. Give me a number that isn't square? Half the mini whiteboards... 67 🤨

Teaching Improper Integrals to year 13 online. This gem came up in the chat 🤣🤣

Finally finished building our Christmas present! I hope the stand we bought works otherwise we have nowhere to put it 😬

About to start this courtesy of @biggreenbooks.bsky.social 🥰

Did you know I've been working on A-level content? I've managed to cover all of year 1 statistics now including in depth videos (a little over 6 hours worth), exam questions and solutions on each topic (117 full exam questions in total). All free, of course. www.1stclassmaths.com/alevelrevision

Partner and 17yo currently having an argument about the best and worst Batman. 17yo is not a Christian Bale fan. Partner is taking this very badly. I think it might be bed time 🤦

This year, I'm going to reinstate Maths Video of the Week, which I send out on Teams to our A Level Maths students (I've let it lapse in recent years) The descriptions and links to the videos are all ready to copy and paste each week - feel free to use! wykecollege-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/person...

New academic year, new Step Support Programme website! Over the summer we have updated our website, had a bit of a tidy up, and added some new content. One of the new features is a "Check in test' for students who have completed the foundation modules complete with marksheme. maths.org/step/

Hi maths teachers. I don't suppose anybody would ever willing to share a lesson on telling the time on an analogue clock for year 7 (set 9 of 9), please. My laptop has broken, yesterday of all days, so I am in a bit of a pickle this week. Thank you in advance

This is my 21st year and still I sat through information overload on the first day back. Surely there's another way.

Just turned my alarm back on. Eugh

Partner supports Arsenal, kid supports Man u and the shops are shut. Maybe I'll go for a long walk 🙄🤦

OK I give up. How do I find the a level markschemes on myAQA. The 2025 exam series doesn't exist. They aren't on all about maths... Where do I find them?!!

Exam Results 2025 With Results Days approaching, I have created a page, Exam Results 2025, with links for results statistics and grade boundaries for the UK examination boards. The page will also feature articles and posts on results analysis. Links are provided for the examination boards' access…

Grade boundary links: Edexcel: qualifications.pearson.com/en/support/s... OCR: www.ocr.org.uk/administrati... AQA: www.aqa.org.uk/exams-admini... Emporium: mathsemporium.com/category/gce... & Further: mathsemporium.com/category/gce...

Wowzers @teachertapp.bsky.social

My partner's daughter works at Morrisons and she made me a cookie cake for my birthday!! It's so perfect!!

We've got a super king size bed. Yesterday my partner and I decided to get separate single quilts. Absolute game changer. Definitely recommend!

One more day

Happy to report I made it through the day with no wardrobe malfunctions

Today I spent the entire day with my top on back to front. How's your final week going?

I saw my further maths fans for their last lesson before the hols today. We finished up with a bit of Maclaurins. Love a bit of Maclaurins

I got the lowdown on the changes to the AQA #ALevelMaths formula book, for those interested 😊 #MathsToday

I told my tens I was going to be the answer to life, the universe and everything at the end of this month. The genuine shock at how old I was gave me that bit more energy to make it to the end of term!

We've lost Silverstone coverage nooooo

Anyone watching the F2? Thank goodness for the halo

Tonight's argument is which is more boring, the fish doorbell or the cricket. I wish this thing did polls properly

Statement by @PearsonEdexcel which fails to address the main issue, why were two versions sat? #MathsToday #AlevelMaths #UKMathsChat qualifications.pearson.com/en/campaigns...

Here we go again 🤦

A member of our Team is investigating what topic(s) different schools/colleges do for their taster days / welcome days for A-Level Maths and Further Maths. Would you be willing to let me know? Please split by Maths / FM if you could. Many thanks in advance!! #ALevelMaths

I bought myself lego because I'm sad

I've been quiet on here lately because I've been taking care of a poorly dog. He went over the rainbow bridge on Tuesday. He was my emotional support, my best friend and the bestest dog anyone could ever want. Gnu my lovely Huxley 🌈

Me and my 17yo got How to Train Your Dragon blind boxes. I got Toothless 🥳

I've had a really difficult couple of days home wise. One of my dogs doesn't have long left and it's really hard. My partner got me a book to give me a bit of a distraction. Here's my favourite page for you all to enjoy.

We programmed our robot lawnmower today and it is now merrily doing a random circuit around the garden. My partner has named it the GC100 (grass cutter 100) because I "keep going on about that bloody new calculator" a 🤣

Bag 2

Millennium Falcon bag "1" we are finally building our Christmas present!

Your friendly reminder. Don't leave it until after you are rudely awakened Monday morning!

We made it to half term guys! That was short and flipping intense!

My partner supports Arsenal and my kid supports Man u. For once they are going to be on the same side for the football!
