I ❤️ this activity so much! Can’t wait until I can use it in our SoW after Christmas ☺️

As a twin-mom, welcome to the club! I have identical twin girls and it’s a wonderful blend of patience-testing madness and heart-warming amazingness all wrapped in double the cuddles 🥰

Big thanks too to @coremathscat.bsky.social for a fantastic session on how teaching maths in context can be such a powerful pedagogical tool!

Thank you so much for agreeing to share your top tips and tasks for establishing the right classroom culture with Y12s. Really valuable points for all A Level teachers!

Yes, they’re great when you want your students to practice exam skills/concepts but they’re sick of exam questions. Multiple choice questions which require some deeper thinking. kellymaths.com/foam.php Found this link to them as not easily available online

We have teachers who much prefer Stats and others who are more confident in Mech so splitting makes sense for us.
Plus, splitting means you can pair up experienced teachers with ECTs etc.

We split A Level teaching between two teachers, one Pure & Mech, one Pure & Stats.
The split for FM changes each year depending on how timetabling works out, sometimes split between two teachers, sometimes three.

Done 👍🏼 happy birthday 🥳

Really helpful - thank you for signposting!

Hope the first day went well!

We don’t leave all the applied for Yr2 but the only stats we do in Yr1 are discrete probability distributions. We save everything else for Yr2. Mechanics is a bit more of a 50:50 split.

No, they seem to be tricky to get hold of online. I’ve got quite a lot of them downloaded (although not many answers) Hopefully this link lets you access them: ccsacademy-my.sharepoint.com/:f:/g/person...

Woohoo - well done you! 🥳

Belated happy birthday!

Never too early to start planning for Christmas 🎄🎁😁

A decision that did not go down well in our household.
