I made a starter pack for KS5 maths (teachers, posters, and other people involved in it)
Most of the starter packs I've seen for maths teachers have been for all age groups, so this one is aimed towards sixth form (16-19 ish)
Please let me know if you'd like adding (or removing)!

In #mathstoday, my #coremaths students were examining misleading graphs - spotting errors & suggesting improvements.

This may be too obscure even for #CoreMaths, but I love it!!

I just started a back-of-envelope estimate of how many cheese sandwiches I’ve eaten in my life, based on such imponderables as “At what age did I start regularly eating cheese sandwiches” and “roughly how many a week have I been putting away, on average” and then decided there was no point, really.

Chi-squared tests in #CoreMaths #MathsToday.
We used this resource yesterday:

In #mathstoday we used questions from the old Foundations of Advanced Mathematics papers to revise cumulative frequency in #coremaths 😁

Where do people get their data sets from? Is there a place to find nice/interesting real world data sets, rather than just making it up?
Mainly for teaching things like confidence intervals, correlation/regression, hypothesis testing...?

Nice bit of real life data to work into a statistics or #CoreMaths lesson... could probably argue it ticks the British Values box, too 🤣 #MathsToday

In #MathsToday I have been marking a lot of mocks. I'm eternally grateful to my colleague, who made me a little overlay for the box plot question in #CoreMaths!

Isn't Blue-sky nice?! Sorry am late to the party.
Looking forward to our #CoreMaths conference on equity centred teaching today.

I had a lot of fun making this @desmos.com Notebook about misleading data visualizations.
Suggestions appreciated.

A good #CoreMaths challenge - find a pair of parallel lines on the cover of this book
A new Edward St Aubyn novel is coming in May. He's such a weird writer, capable of astonishing, bleakly hilarious heartbreaking masterpieces (the Patrick Melrose novels) and also a whole series of real crapfests (his terrible other books).

No lessons in #MathsToday, but I spoke to our entire Lower sixth cohort (160 pupils, including 5 doing #CoreMaths and 66 doing further maths) outlining expectations for the course.

In #mathstoday in #coremaths we looked at how 24 rabbits in Australia became billions 🐇 we then applied population growth models to a wide variety of contexts.
