2. Vectors inward Transformations
There's been some updates to BossMaths including changes to their Geogebra applets. The rotations applet instantly lets you lot exhibit together with shroud tracing paper. You tin move also move vectors equally an choice to using tracing paper. I similar this thought - I honour using tracing newspaper a chip unsatisfactory thus I volition endeavor vectors adjacent fourth dimension I instruct this.
3. SATs Support
I know this is a chip belatedly for Year half-dozen teachers because SATs are adjacent week, but these resources mightiness live on helpful to teachers of other twelvemonth groups, together with to Year half-dozen teachers adjacent year.

Update
My weblog has been receiving tape issue of visitors inward the final twosome of weeks. I estimate a lot of people are using my GCSE revision resources page and my late published post on Foundation revision resources.
I've late uploaded ii sets of revision mats to TES. I made these at piece of job when I realised it's hard to honour suitable resources for students who are working at a Grade 1 or 2. Most GCSE resources are inaccessible to them, together with this tin move effect inward disengagement together with sometimes bad behaviour. So I made A3 revision mats that are to a greater extent than accessible, together with spell I was doing that I made similar resources for other classes. So in that place are 4 levels of difficulty. You tin move download these resources here:
- GCSE Calculator Revision Mats: Higher together with Foundation
- GCSE Non-Calculator Revision Mats: Higher together with Foundation
I also made some Foundation workouts which are especially 'print budget friendly'.
GCSE exams are but circular the corner now. Don't forget that final twelvemonth I made breakfast revision resources for all 3 exams. These tin move live on used either on the morning time of the exams or inward the lessons leading upward to them.
Here are another things you lot mightiness bring missed:
- In 2017 I published a post on approaches to answering AQA GCSE ratio questions. It's i of my nearly pop posts amongst over 20,000 reads. I've instantly made a lesson to accompany this post.
- Adam Boxer (@adamboxer1) shared a post on observing proficient teaching which includes an 'expert teaching observation form'. I contributed to this post yesteryear testing the shape out inward a maths lesson.
- Richard Tock (@TickTockMaths) published a issue of novel lessons including some on indices which depict a lot of ideas from my Topics inward Depth CPD. Check them out on his blog.
- One of my Year 11s was flummoxed yesteryear rotational symmetry final calendar week thus I used the FlashMaths rotational symmetry tool to exhibit him how it works. This has been roughly for a real long fourth dimension thus I was surprised that a lot of teachers on Twitter hadn't seen it before.
