Last week our year 13s started their conic sections standard by looking at loci through the medium of Skittles. Sadly, some Skittles did not make it out of the lesson. Thanks to Chris Collins for originally introducing me to this #NZ #maths #conics #Skittles

Ryan J in 10W did a great job calculating the hypotenuse of the top triangle correctly to 2 dps starting from the information at the base. Ka pai Ryan. How are your #Pythagoras skills? #maths #nz #mathstoday

Great to see so many GHS mathematicians receiving their Australian Maths Competition certificates this week. So many more Distinctions, Credits and Proficiencies gained this year too. Special call out to Paige in year 7 who gained a score putting her in the top 13% of competitors

Nor sure if we're a winner for the door decoration competition for @pinkshirtday 2020 at #BullerHighSchool but just look at Grey WV's panther that's impossibly pink. #StopBullying #SpeakOutStandUp

Another great game of Blockbusters with year 9 on expanding brackets today. It really lifted the tempo for the second half of the lesson, and boosted engagement. Thanks to the excellent @goteachmaths #Blockbusters #Mathematics #Enagagement

Interesting survey I've done with my 4 maths classes to see how they're finding things 4 weeks into online learning. Not huge numbers of responses, still great to be able to act on their comments

This proved to be a great and popular introduction to maths in the first lesson of the new NZ school year with my new year 9 class. So many discussion points arising and so many great ways of thinking about the possibilities. #BullerHigh #Westport #NewZealand

Quick update to my maths and computing page ahead of a links update in the next month. This now links through to the padlets I've created for the classes I'll be teaching NZ academic year 2020.
If they're useful to anyone...#maths #computing #resources

Now that the NZ school year is over, I've prepped my room for academic year 2020, which starts in February. #SummerChristmas #AcademicYear2020

It's still a good one even on the opposite side of the world. My mixed ability year 9 NZ class enjoyed getting to grips with this one this afternoon. #Pythagoras #PileUp #DontRoundTooSoon #BullerHigh
