Maths teachers- can I ask how much curriculum time per week do your Y10 and Y11 classes get?
Thank you!

A friend of mine has just launched this website that I think is pretty great for generating quick starters for A-Level maths and he has started adding some questions for Further Maths too.

I think this could be a nice task to bring together Area, Perimeter, Pythagoras and Inverse functions.

With the main idea that functions are meant to do something useful with an input!

In #mathstoday (yesterday really, but forgot to post) year 12 did this simultaneous equations loop from the maths association. Great levels of challenge and discussion.

#ALevelMaths #Mathstoday Teaching CP1 vectors to year 12 FM -one of my favourite topics to teach, but I can never find enough practice questions to build confidence. Does anyone know where I can get a bank of questions on the shortest distances type questions (point and line, point and plane, etc)?

What would you remove from the current Maths GCSE?

Anything you’d add?

Has anyone here used Magma Maths and what do you think of it?

In #mathstoday my surds extension task came from the wonderful Don Steward. Not a week goes by where I don’t use his thought-provoking resources.

Not going to lie, this is one of the slickest tools I've ever made! 🤯

Visualising translations has just become so much easier with this updated simulator/manipulative.

By the way, why not make your New Year’s resolution be to start sharing little things that went well in your maths lessons using #MathsToday?

Whenever I make a habit of this, it always makes me feel more positive about my job. It’s lovely to scroll through and see what everyone else is doing too.
Having some fun with area models with Y8. I love the bit where you go into negatives and it all still works! I often skip this step, but (as well as being a nice demo for negxneg=pos) it helps overcome their distrust at negative terms appearing as lengths/areas in algebraic models. #MathsToday

I'm looking to build a community of HoDs (any subject) so we can share ideas and bounce off each other. If you're interested, DM me for the Slack link.

My head of department is looking at our schemes of work… how is yours structured? How often do you assess? When do you start KS4? Pictures/screenshots would be great if you can share please 🥰 TIA

Collated some exam questions on surds and geometry for my year 11s next week. I couldn’t find many! Any ideas where I could find more? TIA 🙂 www.piximaths.co.uk/_files/ugd/1...
