I've been looking for things to add more rigour to completing past papers. I get annoyed at staff that sometimes just do it, mark it, and give a grade feedback. I understand the notion of that but we can really drill into some purposeful practice. Thank you!
And this is why the Staple Challenge is so valuable 👏👏👏

With the start of a new year, I thought it might be a good idea to make a thread to share the resources on Corbettmaths and how they will be incredibly useful for students (and their teachers) preparing for exams in 2025 🧵

Here's a fun intersection between math puzzles and word puzzles for your Saturday puzzling enjoyment!

If you plan on using with students, this is targeted for Algebra 2 and beyond due to the vocab used.

In #MathsToday TIL that this shape has many names. According to Mathworld, it's known as a stadium, pill shape, obround, or sausage body. But my favourite name for it which I will now use every time I teach Loci, is the Discorectangle!

An absolute classic for Y9 #MathsToday. I don’t think I’ve ever seen them so engaged on a Wednesday afternoon.
