5 Maths Gems #65

Welcome to my 65th update from the basis of Maths EduTwitter. This is where I part roughly of the latest ideas as well as resources for didactics maths.

1. New GCSE Revision Resources
I'm ever on the spotter for resources for the novel GCSE.

I'm pleased to run into that Ben Tanner (‏@tannermaths) has updated his gratis revision flashcards.
Also, Steve Blades of his blog as well as straight off it's learn quite popular. Read his spider web log post service to run into how he uses these crib sheets alongside his classes.
Check out Twitter for to a greater extent than examples as well as discussion. This would operate only every bit good inwards maths every bit inwards other subjects, especially if your schoolhouse expects y'all to create majority marker - writing 30 carve upward (often close identical) comments is non a practiced purpose of your time.

Here's an instance for H5N1 bird maths from Katie Pollard (@takepi21). Her template is here. Katie handed out copies to her students for them to attach to their work. They each highlighted the sections relevant to them. 
5. Twinkl
Twinkl is a website amount of lovely maths resources, including a huge hit of activities for master copy schoolhouse children. They direct maintain of late started expanding their secondary maths collection, including resources for GCSE. The squeamish people at Twinkl kindly gave me gratis access to their resources thus I could explore. Note that these resources require a subscription (they direct maintain diverse subscription packages ranging from £29.99 to £69.99 per year).

I'll part a few examples of their resources hither to give y'all an thought of their style.
Extract from 'Shape at Home: Surface Area as well as Volume PowerPoint'
Extract from 'Budget at Home: Compound Interest as well as Depreciation PowerPoint'

There are a lot of resources that powerfulness operate good alongside depression attaining Year 7s, such every bit the 'KS3 Maths Addition as well as Subtraction Catch Up Resource Pack' as well as the 'KS3 Maths Place Value Catch Up Resource Pack' (extracts below).


I expression forwards to seeing Twinkl's secondary collection travel on to grow.

Update
Hurrah for one-half term! It came only at the correct time. I've been fifty-fifty busier than commons this term because I'm a Year thirteen shape tutor as well as 27 of the students inwards my shape are applying for academy - UCAS is taking over my life! H5N1 interruption was much needed.

In instance y'all missed them, my recent posts were:
Thanks to @Mr_Mathematics for sharing this squeamish publish puzzle. My Year 7s enjoyed it. I also used it every bit the "Parents' Puzzle" inwards my half-termly Year eleven newsletter.
3. Visualiser Challenge
I went to a his blog as well as straight off it's learn quite popular. Read his spider web log post service to run into how he uses these crib sheets alongside his classes.

In instance y'all missed them, my recent posts were:
  • TeachMeet concluding calendar week where instructor Ryan Foster talked virtually WAGOLLs ('What a Good One Looks Like'). He described how his schoolhouse models the expected criterion of work.

When I supply homework to my classes I ofttimes display photos of the best operate on my interactive whiteboard. I did this recently with my Year 12s later marker a disappointing railroad train of homeworks. The instance below was especially hard to mark.

I was pleased that the character of most students' operate improved later I shared practiced examples.

Thanks to my PGCE buddy Heerpal Sahota ‏(@MrHSahota) for sharing this thought for improving the criterion of presentation:
"I purpose 'visualiser challenge' inwards many of my lessons, where I randomly select ii or 3 pieces of operate to project. The operate should speak for itself, as well as nosotros direct maintain a shape give-and-take focusing on specific praise as well as constructive criticism".
What a lovely idea.

4. Marking Crib Sheets
This thought isn't going to operate for everyone but is worth a look. To salve fourth dimension during marking, history instructor Mr Thornton (his blog as well as straight off it's learn quite popular. Read his spider web log post service to run into how he uses these crib sheets alongside his classes.
