What I beloved nearly Twitter is that at that topographic point are vast numbers of talented maths teachers all over the basis sharing reflections, ideas, resources as well as questions. I specially similar seeing photos of students' move as well as activities that went well. It's thence interesting to run across what goes on inwards other teachers' classrooms equally it's oft really unlike to what goes on inwards mine.Lately I've been getting loads of inspiration from the tweeps I've listed below. They consistently part valuable insights as well as creative ideas. Are yous next them? You should be!
Miss Bowkett (@MissBowkett) I featured Miss Bowkett's pop mark stickers inwards a recent gems post. She is really creative as well as has simply started blogging. Here's an instance of 1 Miss Bowkett's smashing ideas: she lay MA revision cards into photograph albums - she's lay 1 album on each tabular array inwards her GCSE shape thence students tin reference them during lessons:
The motion-picture demo below is interesting also - Miss Bowkett displays this slide when she returns marked move to students. The students listed nether 'achievement unlocked' are those who produced move of a actually high standard. The ruby box at the bottom shows things that around students involve to improve.
Check out this awesome indices maze that she made past times hand!
Stacy Brookes (@Stacy_Maths) Stacy's first-class website is 1 of the most useful sources of maths teaching resources I've seen. She shares lots of her ain resources, which are fantastic (I've used a lay out of them this term) - banking company jibe out the lovely equivalent fractions worksheet below.
I also adore her resources recommendations posts. I role them all the time. For instance when I was planning a lesson on rounding as well as estimating, I went right away to her Rounding as well as Estimating weblog post for a comprehensive listing of resources links. These posts are incredibly helpful as well as salve teachers a lot of fourth dimension when looking for resources.
Miss Norledge (@MissNorledge) Christine Norledge consistently contributes high lineament resources as well as insightful analysis to the Twitter community. Her blog is first-class as well as e'er worth reading. She's also a vivid maker of resources. Here's a yoke of her recent creations:
Christine is definitely 1 to follow. She explains ideas really clearly as well as I constitute her posts on bar modelling as well as ratio tables incredibly helpful.
Kim Pitchford (@Ms_Kmp) Kim's weblog Maths Sandpit has been inspiring maths teachers since 2013. It's a treasure trove of resources as well as reflections. Having sat side past times side to Kim during a yoke of workshops at #mathsconf5, I tin confirm that she is an incredibly artist alongside lots of ideas to share. Here's a few examples...
Her post Good question, Bad enquiry 1 takes the reader through really clear step-by-step instructions for creating a foldable on questionnaire design.
I also similar her post Here's the answer - I'm going to endeavour this fractions activity:
There's lots to a greater extent than to explore on Kim's wonderful blog.
Miss Steel (@MsSteel_Maths) I was lucky to attend Jenny Steel's lovely Paper Maths workshop at #mathsconf5. Since as well as thence I've explored her blog farther as well as was really pleased to discovery a lay out of Key Stage 5 resources including this simultaneous equations race as well as this quadratic inequalities worksheet which volition also move helpful for the novel GCSE.
Jenny has fifty-fifty to a greater extent than resources on TES, to a greater extent than oft than non for Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 degree but there's also around for GCSE. I don't learn D1 but if I did as well as thence I'd role her D1 revision quiz.
Jenny teaches at a 6th shape college as well as loves using foldables - yous tin read nearly this here.
Check out the clever fractals display inwards Jenny's classroom!
So that's my 5 #ff recommendations. I promise yous discovery them helpful.
Did yous run across the website I made for my exciting Christmaths Party? I promise yous tin come upwardly - tickets are on sale at nowadays thence don't immature lady out!

Hello too welcome to my 41st gems post. It's been ages since my final gems post, but I accept a expert excuse! I've been utterly snowed nether amongst function and I've also been preoccupied amongst a rattling exciting project... I'm organising a Christmaths Party too it's going to survive awesome. Details volition survive announced rattling soon. In the hateful time, here's some overnice ideas too resources that accept been shared on Twitter over the final few weeks.
1. Rugby In instance you lot hadn't noticed, the Rugby World Cup is inward total swing. My students are actually into it. I used the stadium capacity infographic below (shared yesteryear @amberlee902) inward a lesson on important figures.
I similar this rugby inquiry from @thecmsp, which is aimed at post-16 students studying Core Maths. Thanks to my colleague @MissStokesMaths for showing me this one.
I also spotted the infographic below on mathsandelearning.wikispaces.com - this is a corking teaching tool for pictographs. You could enquire your students what each symbol represents numerically.
2. Resources for high attainers
I read a post called 'My novel favourite website'. Huge thank you lot to Richard Tock (@TickTockMaths) for this post, inward which he recommends the rattling helpful website DrFrostMaths.com. This website is written yesteryear Dr J Frost who is a maths instructor at Tiffin School (a grammer schoolhouse only downwardly the route from me). Dr Frost shares a huge release of his ain teaching resources, including PowerPoints, worksheets, homeworks too quizzes. His worksheets are good designed for high attainers, incorporating both basic skills questions too stretch questions. His website also has tips too resources for students entering maths challenges such equally the JMO.
There's tonnes to explore on this website - here's an instance of his Pythagoras exercises to give you lot an idea.
3. Skills Check
Thanks to Miss_Ren (@ReynoldsITT) for sharing her Skills Check, pictured below. This is a versatile activity that could survive used regularly, maybe equally a starter or equally a mini-assessment. Students consummate the questions for values of a too b given yesteryear the teacher. The values of a an b could survive given equally integers, fractions, decimals, numbers inward criterion form, powers, surds too then on. This industrial plant for a release of topics too is a expert agency to banking concern jibe key skills.
Another activity for practising key skills is this times tables grid from maths-starters.co.uk - the instance below is laid to the laissez passer on difficulty level!
