Resourceaholic: #5 Maths Gems 169
Welcome to my 169th gems post. This is where I share some of the latest news, ideas and resources for maths teachers.
1. GCSE Revision Resources
John Corbett has created the Ultimate Higher Revision Video and an accompanying booklet containing 372 questions. This follows the Foundation video and booklet he published previously.
1st Class Maths has published some high quality GCSE papers in the style of Edexcel and AQA.
Mini target tests from Maths Genie aren’t new but I hadn’t seen them before this year. I used these for homeworks last term.
2. Level 2 Further Maths Revision
And here’s some more FM revision clocks from @cafemaths.
I’ll be making use of these once I’ve finished teaching the specification – three lessons to go!
3. A Level Resources
Here are some resources that might be useful for A level teachers:
I enjoyed reading @nathanday314‘s excellent PowerPoint tips which support maths teachers making resources using PowerPoint.
Here are a couple of other recent shares from Nathan:
5. Correlation
Thank you to @TimBrzezinski for sharing an excellent ready-to-use GeoGebra activity for exploring the correlation coefficient.
Update
In case you missed them, I recently wrote two posts about curriculum:
I’ll leave you with some lovely maths games recently shared on Twitter. I have enjoyed playing all three of these!
@Philmaths314 shared Number Hive which I’ve downloaded for my daughters to play. It’s a really fun times tables game that is suitable for all ages. They’ve also shared a paper version for schools to use.
@El_Timbre shared Digits from the New York Times. The interface is great – it’s a Countdown-style game (i.e. make a target number) but you can easily undo steps, which helps builds confidence.
Have a great week everyone!
