In #MathsToday my Y11 Foundation class quite desperately need to work on angles reasoning so we started by dumping everything we know about angles onto this knowledge organiser (is this what this is??) -esque page before working on some exam questions.

Unbelievably good Connections today Puzzle #1060 🟨🟩🟦🟪 🟨🟨🟨🟨 🟩🟩🟩🟩 🟦🟦🟦🟦 🟪🟪🟪🟪

Not seen this yet, always interesting to see what is going on in the world

Maths teachers of the UK rejoice

Cracked this bad boy out today. Tiny ratchet screwdriver for tightening compasses.

In #MathsToday I love seeing misconceptions I havent before. Quite a few of my Y7s have done this in a test, because some muppet (me) has probably advised them to go diagonally through the grid for y=x

Updated this, removed some undesirable difficulties

THE most divisive question I have asked anyone lately is "Is peanut butter sweet or savoury?" Ask your friends, colleagues, loved ones, strangers -- you will be absolutely shocked by the responses.

Right i've immediately made a change to this. I've put in a grid with dashed lined to cut after an experience with my year 8s in which many of them delicately cut around every circle and thus took FOREVER to cut them out. You may only cut along the dashed lines.

Extremely useful a level topic analysis

@thechalkface.bsky.social Hello! Cheeky question, have you happened to keep up your A Level topic frequency analysis? Would you be willing to share if so?

Edexcel FP1 - Solving Inequalities with Graph Sketching I've compiled some questions that progress a bit easier than the FP1 textbook Available to download with editable LaTeX script and answer here: www.mrchapmanmaths.com/ks5

Oblique Asymptotes Do these appear anywhere in Edexcel Further Maths?

I need to have a word with our canteen about the definition of 'square'

Emma Barnett : outstanding job on #r4today this morning

I absolutely love Don Steward But truthfully I am stuck Can anyone offer any advice on the property of the 3 digit numbers mentioned here?

My strong Year 7s need some practice on multiplying decimals by hand. I've been talking to our PGCE about injecting fun into a task -- so i've put together this Murder Mystery task I'll upload the editable .pptx later

Awesome roots task by @dandraper.bsky.social Also an excellent order of operations post here mrdrapermaths.wordpress.com/2017/04/08/o...

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

I *think* my tarsia generator is working pretty well now. www.mrchapmanmaths.com/tools/tarsia... #MathsToday

Tool i'm currently working on School won't allow me to download tarsia software So i'm vibe coding a tarsia puzzle maker This is proving harder than other little projects i've worked on If anyone wants to test out what i've got give me a shout

GCSE Iteration Showing staircase diagrams to give students a sense of what is going on Can anyone think what disadvantages there might be of showing this at KS4? Do these outweigh the merits?

With @ox.ac.uk and @cam.ac.uk Maths courses now requiring TMUA for 2027 entry onwards it seemed a good time to remind you of the @meimaths.bsky.social TMUA On Demand course. Free for students from state-funded schools & colleges. Perfect to recommend to Year 12 students 😁 mei.org.uk/course/prepa...

In #MathsToday I got my Y7s playing with the Frogs Project from nrich For which I put together an applet for them www.mrchapmanmaths.com/algebra/frogs Featuring -> Campaign mode where they have to get the optimal solution before moving on -> Colour adjustable frogs -> Confetti cannon when you win.

#TodayInMaths Dijkstra's Algorithm! For which I have put together a digital tool: www.mrchapmanmaths.com/ks5/dijkstra Happy to hear feedback on it! Think I have worked out the major kinks.

Quick Sort! Including Custom lists and 'Edexcel mode' where the Pivot must be selected as the middle entry (or right of this if there is a conflict) If anyone can let me know how quick sort is done on other boards I can update it. www.mrchapmanmaths.com/ks5/quicksort #ALevelMaths #MathsToday

Edexcel QuickSort - students choose the central value as a pivot OR the right of the two if there are two central values. I heard a rumour on the grapevine it is the left of the two for AQA and different in other exam boards... Can anyone confirm/deny/clarify?

Bubble sort practice Including optional modes where you must write number of comparisons and swaps made And a 'manual stop' mode where you say when you want the sort to stop (i.e. after a pass made with no swaps). www.mrchapmanmaths.com/ks5/bubblesort #mathstoday #alevelmaths

Fun little game that I've played for years with classes and now available as a web app. -> Randomly generate a number 1-9 and place it in the column addition with a target of 1000 -> Option to swap a pair of digits, and to bin one you don't like. www.mrchapmanmaths.com/number/targe...

Wednesday's TGT takes a look at Rosa Parks. I hope many will know her story already. But it's interesting to note she wasn't the first to defy the racist segregation of Montgomery's buses, but civil rights leaders did think she was the right person to be the face of change. bit.ly/TutorGroupThink

Correlation ≠ Causation

I'll be the first to admit I have gone crazy creating digital tools using Gemini vibe coding BUT check out what i've been doing today: Edexcel GCSE Maths Foundation revision tracker. RAG rate the skills; you can then later filter by your RAG rating. www.mrchapmanmaths.com/revision/ede...

A relief to have passed my NPQLT!

Needed an isometric drawing tool, asked Gemini to write me one. Available here: www.mrchapmanmaths.com/geometry/iso... Includes: -Adjustable dot thickness -Editable spacing -Change dots to lines -Fill tool -Colours -Download button -Line thickness -Pan tool -'Box' Tool #MathsToday
