Yesterday one of my students made a grid with an emoji to represent how they felt about each question in the do now.
I absolutely loved it.
Is this the new way to rate their confidence on questions? 😆😲🤭🤗

Did you know...on the sample space race you can change the track length and perform multiple rolls at once.
Horse 7 ALWAYS wins...if you make the track long enough.

🙏🏻 Help please, lovely maths peeps 🙏🏻
Does anyone have an excel (ideally) scheme of work for Edexcel KS4 (following the textbook) which has links to sparx maths codes? Before I go and make one ☺️ thanks.

If anyone has a linear A Level Scheme of Work that they'd be happy to share with me my DMs are open.
I'm especially interested if you've put Radians in Y12!

Last week @standupmaths had me join one of his "Evening of Unnecessary Detail" events in New York. I invited @acapellascience to come down and we had a bit too much fun writing a parody of "Ain't No Sunshine" about the twin prime conjecture.

So, having been hesitant to leave the classroom last September,
