Maths teacher. I aim to share lots of snippets of my lessons using #MathsToday and would encourage you to do the same!
Also occasional geometry puzzles 🧩

@mathforge.org has done what I’ve never been organised enough to do myself, and catalogued every #geometrypuzzle I’ve ever posted on social media. It looks amazing!

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

This year I’ve ended up with the most silent Y12 class I’ve ever taught. Today I changed the seating plan and put this instruction at the top of the starter, and they actually talked to each other! #WeeklyWins #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

I had two 8-minute breaks during tonight’s online parents evening - and in those breaks, I managed to prep a meal and get it into the oven, so that it was ready to come out as I finished. This is definitely going down as one of my #WeeklyWins!

In #MathsToday Y13 filled this normal distribution table #ALevelMaths
I love this resource, especially when students get to the second one of the bottom row and get stuck, at which point I usually prompt them to look for where 0.7778 appears elsewhere. But today, that didn’t happen…

In #MathsToday, because of residentials this week, I will only see my Y7 class in bits. So I started Don Steward's "Expression Pyramids" with them. It's a great set of tasks which build up to a really nice conclusion .Thanks to @mathsjem.bsky.social's www.resourceaholic.com for leading me to it.

In #MathsToday my yr 13s showed me an integral a day website they'd found and were having a go at. They are the best kind of students. Had to tell two off because they were doing that integration and they hadn't tried the trig ones yet!

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.

With Year 12 today we were looking at remainder theorem and we did the very lovely true or false task from Integral maths. See also here my mini-whiteboard check before letting them get on which was nice as it forced them to think about the positions of the numbers.

Advice sought:
I am about to teach Year 11 Foundation area, perimeter, volume, surface area of 2D/3D shapes. In theory, they have done all this before but every time they are asked to calculate the area of a triangle it is like seeing it again for the first time.

After #MathsToday I created a new fill in the blanks generator on Normal Distribution.

You can choose what is revealed / hidden for any randomly generated distribution by clicking. Easy to screenshot into a presentation, or use live.

Friday was that manic I forgot to actually post my #WeeklyWins 😂
● Y9s doing really well with scatters
● Getting Y7s to realise that fractions are so much better than formula triangles for compound measures (take that science dept!)
● got my retakes through their first L2 6 marker
Keep posting!
