I am starting a series on teaching "hard-to-teach" topics in GCSE maths.

The first of these articles looks at vector proof, and how teachers of maths might approach teaching vector proof so that it makes sense for more pupils.

Used the wonderful MathsPad tangent drawing tool tool today with Y11. They loved coming up to the board to try and position the perfect tangent! Seeing this immediate, very visible, feedback before they all started drawing independently was so useful. #MathsToday

He had brain damage and was told he had to be put to sleep.

Today I took Stormzy to run on the beach.

I promise this will set you up for the weekend ❤️

Little Stormzy had his first trip out into the "real world".

Testing him out to see if he'll be OK for adoptions.

Look at him go! I think the early answer is a yes!

I enjoyed doing this question with Y7 #MathsToday. I need to remember to revisit this with Y8 when they start standard form - it’s exactly the way I want them to be thinking about it.

I still remember how bad a state every single one of these dogs were in when I found them in various bad situations in Thailand.

This was a surprise from the @happydoggo.com team. Talk about emotional just 3 hours before the Marathon!
