Yay to summer holidays!! 🥳

And relax….. By ‘relax’ I obviously mean. ‘do some gained time tasks’!!

This February, I lost my Dad to prostate cancer. In his memory, our family is taking on pretty mudder to raise money for Cancer Research UK. If you’re able to support it would be appreciated. Thank you so much for your kindness and support ❤️ fundraise.cancerresearchuk.org/team/nickys-...

Fun day at #mathsconf40 today with Jill Hay and @drbennison.bsky.social. I learnt a new way of teaching inequalities to A Level Maths and FM that I’m excited about @blatherwicksam.bsky.social. I loved trying some international exam questions with @mr-man-maths.bsky.social.

My #MathsConf40 workshop choices: 1 - Joe Berwick 2 - Shamim Brek 3 - Colin Warden 4 - Saskia Roobaert 5 - Dr Ed Southall Join me with @lasalleed.bsky.social, get your ticket here: completemaths.com/community/mathsconf40

Got my ticket today!

Fantastic day at MathsFest today!! All presenters were amazing. Added bonus, two of our Bilborough students won Maths Slam, so proud 🥳🥳🥳

Silverstone was a great first stop on our two day A Level Maths trip! Next today is pizza express and Back to the Future Musical, tomorrow MathsFest!!

A friend of mine has just launched this website that I think is pretty great for generating quick starters for A-Level maths and he has started adding some questions for Further Maths too. mrhardymaths.co.uk #MathsToday #ALevelMaths

I am not sure I’ll get the same traction here as I did on the dark place but please answer and REPOST and let’s try to build a lovely bookish thread. The best book you read this year was… Mine undoubtedly The Elements by John Boyne (please check trigger warnings first).

#WeeklyWins I set revision cover for my year 12 FM class (thanks @drbennison.bsky.social for the revision clock/videos). They were free to do the work wherever they liked. One of the students sent me some photos of lots of them working in the classroom together ‘locked in’ using the big whiteboards

#weeklywins I raided physics and used actual equipment to teach moments to my year 13s and it worked well! #alevelmaths

Give the gift of Maths to yourself??

This year I have printed some mathematical advent calendars. Turns out this was more expensive to do than I anticipated. I have a limited number available if any of you would like to buy one? £8 including postage and a couple of extra little surprises.More details: buymeacoffee.com/drbennison/e...

Thanks to those who have sent data already. To hopefully make it easier to submit your prior attainment and @aqaeducation.bsky.social Maths A-Level Grade please use the file linked here: www.dropbox.com/scl/fi/pdqqh... DM me for instructions on when to send it. Hoping to share beginning of November.

Inspired by the great previous work of @kerrydunton.bsky.social and because @themathsbazaar.bsky.social is only looking at progression to Edexcel A-Level maths I’d like to produce some transition matrices from GCSE to @aqaeducation.bsky.social Maths. I’m hoping to collect enough data to be useful

#ALevelMaths please get involved in helping to produce some A-Level transition matrices for AQA A-Level maths.

Thought it might be useful to have a post of which exam boards people use for Maths, to help find each other when we have queries etc about the specification or where to find resources. Add yourself in a comment below if you're happy for people to know what you do- no obligation to do anything else!

Every year I play the Mcfly song ‘it’s all about you’ when I teach integration by substitution, so I loved that they remembered it in this card! I also love the Toucan-Newton substitution!! 🦜🍎 #ALevelMaths

#ALevelMaths Has anyone done the AS Further Pure AQA paper from last week yet? Would you be willing to share solutions with me please?

#ALevelMaths Release schedule of my AQA A-Level practice papers etc for this year.

At #mathsconf37 @mathsjem.bsky.social did a ‘fun with factorising’ session and taught us this fun way of factorising. I came home and showed my year 11 son, he did the second one and liked the new (well, very old!) method! Thanks Jo! #MathsToday

Fun day at #mathsconf37 today! Made so much better by the surprise of seeing my friend Georgina there! #MathsToday
