Didn't notice this guy for a while today. Scared the crap out me especially as a gust of wind made him move which made me notice him.

Today we did some modelling using trig.
We modelled Peppas journey on my daughters ferris wheel.
Always good to have some props on hand...
We decided to ignore that fact that carriages always dangle vertically. We modelled the pin they dangle on instead.

The more I watch Educating Yorkshire the more I think 2 things:
1. Why on earth would you take part in this as a teacher? Like career wise this is potential suicide.
2. Why on earth would you agree to have your child's face in it? I feel parents need there heads wobbling.

#mathstoday #alevelmaths . Y13 proved the compound angle formulae with a bit of nudge and a poke from me.
Y12 proved some trig identities using sin/cos and sin^2 + cos^2
Y11 did instantaneous rates of change
Y8 did very little to be honest. Tough class, behaviour and LPA makes it a challenge.

I am also sad * to support my church also didn't mention Charlie kirk.
We had a sermon about the incarnation of God. 100% man 100% devine. 200% jesus "The mystery of godliness". There was more to it but alot went over my head after the percentages analogy...
*not really
I'm also sad* to report my church also didn't mention Charlie Kirk. Instead we had a fantastic sermon on how you don't win people over by judging them, using Jesus with Zacchaeus as the reference.

I'm sad* to report my church also didn't mention Charlie Kirk. There was however a rip-roaring sermon about how displaying the flag of St George is a way of the majority lording it over a vast range of minorities, and how the cross of Jesus brings people together not separating them.

Year 8 bottom set looked at adding and subtracting fractions using shading. Some great work by them p1, less so p5 (split double).

Year 12s started solving trig equations. By drawing graphs, no CAST diagrams here please... use it yourselves if you wish though...

Y13 looked at radians, derived the arc and area of a sector formula from prior knowledge of GCSE formulae. Then we sketched the inverse trig functions discussing the difference between sin-¹(x) and and(sin(x))-¹ . Then introduced arcsin etc to avoid confusion.

#Alevelmaths can I just check I'm not misremembering that AQA promised a new formula booklet before the start of the new year? Has anyone received an email about i?

Diving into GCSE results across the country, for the first time, the link between outcomes and wealth was really driven home to me. My thoughts are here, please let me know yours.
