#MathsToday with year 10 was looking into using a calculator properly, and we completed one of all time favourite tasks from Don Stewart’s median blog

In #mathstoday I used a tonne of diagnostic questions, brilliant revision tool for quick fire questions with Year 11. Highlight has been a Casio training session on using my Christmas present of a fx-GC50. Made myself a little picture while waiting!

It’s been a good couple of weeks: Birthday dinner at Adam’s, 24 hours in Paris, Christmas with my family, a West End show and a very cheesey NYE. Even squeezed in some rest days!

But now it’s time to get back to the maths… 😊

Today #InMaths we actually did some sampling - rather than just reading about it. Looked at all the different, with methods and pros and cons. Not only good fun, but also some good reflection points. “But all I have are bounty’s, that’s not fair” being a firm favourite 😂

Word map from Year 12s before we started introducing differentiation. Some interesting conversations as a result! Although the “I don’t know” is a particular worry 👀

Today #InMaths I revisited a very dusty drawer in my brain to delve into factorising polynomials. I am grid method convert! My brain is TIRED after a full day of A Level on the TAM course, but we go again tomorrow!

I used these as a starter last week, and we ended up doing some estimations out of it. It was a really nice activity! Could build a lesson on American food habits using this and then my favourite NYT graph. Thank you! ☺️

New boards for #CoreMaths to display at our open evening for prospective year 12s. My only contribution, as I spent the evening with Ezra Collective instead 😂
