Edexcel June 2012 Results Template for Year 10s

June 21, 2014

This is the first year we’ve given year 10s a past paper for their end of year assessment, and I’m really pleased we’ve done it.  Not only does it give the most realistic working at grade, but I can do a proper analysis of the topics assessed so I know initial areas to target with my group.  Thanks to http://www.justmaths.co.uk, as I was able to adapt one of their results templates from a more recent exam to the June 2012 exam and have rolled out with all our year 10 groups. Actually looking forward to inputting the marks to get the picture of where we are and what we need to do.

Takeaway Homework

June 18, 2014

Or Takeaway Home Learning as we call it at our school.  Have read a bit about this on the internet following being pointed in that direction by our assistant head (in charge of teaching and learning).  So I’ve developed one for maths, and have started trying it out with a couple of groups.  So far so good.  Next step, to present to the teaching staff as a “one minute wonder” in briefing.  I really like the idea, especially that it gives pupils choice on the style of their home learning, which in turn I hope will only benefit them.  Next part to develop is some sort of way to encourage pupils to try different styles.

Let’s start blogging

I’ve recently discovered how much wealth of knowledge, discussion and resources are shared by maths bloggers and tweeters.  Having now been teaching for over 5 years, I’ve started to build up my own library of resources which I can share (some of which has been “pinched” from websites such as Tes).  I’m also very much enjoying trying out different ideas and developing these.  So one place to share is on my own blog!  Happy blogging 🙂
