Calculator hacks https://www.mathedup.co.uk/calculator-hacks/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=calculator-hacks https://www.mathedup.co.uk/calculator-hacks/#comments Sat, 11 Apr 2015 14:06:41 +0000 https://mathedup.co.uk/?p=2727 I recently came across this blog post by @RGS_maths where they shared some calculator tips. Many of these I had come across before but the one that stood out for me and got me all excited was number 5: Verify your algebra. To be honest, the only time I had ever come across the “VERIF” mode was […]

The topics covered focus on the most challenging part of the GCSE course and the 5 worksheets get progressively more difficult. I have  referenced questions, where possible, to the GCSE maths takeaway menu and I […]

But over the past however many years, when I have picked up a year 12 AS maths class, the thing that has annoyed me the most is […]

It is similar to the flipped revision idea I shared last week but has a specific theme. Pokemon. Just to be clear, I had no idea when it came to Pokemon, but have been told that they […]

Flippin’ revision! https://www.mathedup.co.uk/flippin-revision/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=flippin-revision https://www.mathedup.co.uk/flippin-revision/#comments Tue, 24 Mar 2015 22:22:21 +0000 https://mathedup.co.uk/?p=2528 It is that time of year where the GCSE course is done and dusted for year 11s and the countdown to the final exams has well and truly begun. To quote Sir Alex Ferguson, it is “squeaky-bum time”. Our school are members of the PiXL club so we had our PPEs (Pre-public examinations) a couple of weeks […]

The idea is that they do 1 worksheet per day and bring to me to get marked. I will give them lots of feedback on what they need to work on and direct them to […]

GCSE Revision mats https://www.mathedup.co.uk/gcse-revision-mats/?utm_source=rss&utm_medium=rss&utm_campaign=gcse-revision-mats https://www.mathedup.co.uk/gcse-revision-mats/#comments Tue, 06 May 2014 22:08:57 +0000 https://mathedup.co.uk/?p=1447 It’s that time of year again where we are in the thick of GCSE revision lessons. Some of this time, quite rightly, should be dedicated to exam paper practice but I find that the repetitiveness of this often leads to stale lessons and it is difficult to monitor how much progress students are actually making. My […]

Firstly I want to thank @TeacherToolkit for the 5 minute series and @DaK_74 for the  fantastic idea of using it for a test analysis.
