Best Guess paper and Video Tutorial - November Paper 2 Edexcel Foundation @1stclassmaths.bsky.social @mathsjem.bsky.social @themathsbazaar.bsky.social static1.squarespace.com/static/67560...

I have posted key topics for Edexcel Paper 2 but not been able to do AQA as I haven't seen the papers. I can do this tomorrow still if anyone has a copy but otherwise not a lot I can do I am afraid.

Edexcel Higher Key Topics for Paper 2 www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Key topics for Edexcel Foundation Paper 2. I don't have the higher paper or any for AQA yet. www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

I am happy to analyse the GCSE papers in the coming week and suggest key topics for paper 2/3. This will depend entirely on if I can get eyes on a paper so no promises. Given the very short period between each paper, it might not happen. If you know you will have access to a script early, DM me.

Another booklet made. 23 simple/compound interest questions that get progressively more challenging/interesting. #mathstoday #UKmathschat www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9... www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Been a bit slow lately with a broken collarbone but back at it now! Reverse % questions added to site. More on the way include compound interest and loci. www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9... www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9... #mathstoday #ukmathschat

#MathsToday I had to talk to students (again) about why trusting AI to do their homework is not a good idea. 2nd time I have caught it out in a week. #Maths teachers using online hwk platforms, what do you do about this?

Good starter for discussion. What is wrong with this chart? @martinlewis.moneysavingexpert.com

My daughter is doing her Sparx and she just spotted the Chrome now offers in-built AI homework cheating (see button at the top right - takes you straight to AI tools that answer the question for you). FFS.

Barely a day into the new academic year and the "predicted paper" marketing is already in full swing. Advise your students accordingly! www.tiktok.com/@gcse.alevel...

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

Would anyone like to test a question booklet I have made on Y12 probability?

In case you missed it!

Don't teach Pythagoras because you might not use it as an adult but teach Henry VIII because you personally enjoy teaching it. Do you agree? www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAKT... #MathsToday #UKMathsChat

If anyone isn't too busy enjoying the sunshine I have completed a L2FM paper that I could do with some testing. Happy Saturday. ☀️

To the boomer technophones who refuse to accept that social media can be used for good. Bicenmaths is livestreaming on YouTube right now for A-level prep: www.youtube.com/watch?v=z4vf...

Thank you to everyone that has helped me get content out! Still GCSEFM to go but the main bits are done! I honestly could not get it done without the help. I also appreciate the support with my YT issue, which I am glad to say, was resolved today! Sadly I did not win the Euromillions. GL tomorrow.

AQA 3F. Will get to work on videos! www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Completed a draft of AQA 3F. If anyone is able to give it a try in the next hour please get in touch.

AQA 3H. Thanks so much to those who helped get this out. I will do my best with 3F tomorrow but I have some teaching to do as well www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Am expecting to finish writing AQA 3H in the next hour or so but will need some people to test it before I share. Is anyone likely to be able to tonight, with ipad etc to write over answers?

Got the full set now 😁 mathswhiteboard.com/MWB/thevault

Edexcel 3F. I will begin work on AQA but am evidently a bit behind schedule. My plan is to try and write both papers and give them you to tonight (well likely early hours) without a video. I will then try make videos on Monday/Tuesday. www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Just asked ChatGPT for the average screentime of a teenager and it said 9 hours 16 mins. I asked it to clarify if that was a weekly figure and it says daily. WHAT.

Been busy working today on Edexcel 3F. I will definitely get that out tomorrow then work on AQA 3H. That will likely run into Monday (and foundation Tuesday).

Edexcel 3H, sorry I am behind! I will try get 3F out tomorrow but taking a gamble that YouTube doesn't nerf me with this one too. 🤞 www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Literally what is your problem? Here is you making the same point. I've asked for help because YouTube is unfairly reducing my income and you have an issue with that?

If you have 5 mins and can help me with this YouTube nonsense instructions at the end of this video. It won't take long but will flag the videos to them. Appreciate retweets. If this gets resolved I can get back to making papers! www.youtube.com/watch?v=9b6z...

Best guess OCR paper 6 now up at www.mrbraddermaths.co.uk Not seen Foundation paper so that's a work in progress. I've also adapted my Best guess paper 5 showing hits and misses and left it up as that'll still be good revision for paper 6

After some people to test my paper 3H edexcel

Are you aware of what your students are revising the night before the exam? I was browsing livestreams (as people seem to keep using my materials...) and found this one with 7000 viewers. A few things I saw (you can watch the entire thing back too with this link) www.youtube.com/watch?v=dyXX...

TikTokTipsters profiteering on the high stakes gambling nature of GCSE exams is where we are now in 2025. Read my comments in The Observer.

Hi just posting to say I've created an OCR 'best guess' paper 2 for students/teachers Used what anyone might (paper1, non calc topics, past popularity of topics) - Full walkthroughs coming soon. All free at www.mrbraddermaths.co.uk Appreciate any sharing :) @1stclassmaths.bsky.social

Does it annoy anyone else that OCR does the negative sign like this? Why's it so damn high???

AQA 2F - Will try get videos sorted tomorrow/Friday. www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

AQA 2H - no video yet, that will come after but at least you can print it out. Foundation hopefully coming shortly too... www.1stclassmaths.com/_files/ugd/9...

Requesting assistance to check over AQA 2F practice paper

My yearly thanks to @1stclassmaths.bsky.social, @hannahkettlemaths.bsky.social, @corbettmaths.bsky.social, @drfrostresource.bsky.social, @justmaths.bsky.social and all others who create best guess papers during this window 👏👍

I've completed a draft of AQA 2H. It's been sent for QA and hopefully released tomorrow (I mean today!) - Off to bed 😴
