@nathanturnerspc@Mathematical_A Yes - might even call them 'Core Maths'! But a level 2 Core Maths instead of endless GCSE resits, would also refresh post-16 (or even post-14) provision. Mathematical, data, financial, digital literacies all key for education today
Brilliant to see that one of the key architects and supporters of #CoreMaths, Professor Paul Glaister, has been awarded the CBE.
(The citation should read: "For services to Core Maths", obvs)

I respect much of what Hannah says, but suggesting much of our current maths teaching workforce can only 'traumatise' young people flies against the evidence, and ignores great post-16 opportunities such as Core Maths

Perhaps other things also matter: quality of the family life, relationships with children.... there are plenty of years to work.
@early_learner @larkylass1969 So, so important. We're actually none of us hard-wired for it, but for littlies this is core of their growing identities.

Original question here (from MEI FP2 textbook in UK):
If you are in touch with year 10 students upwards and want to encourage A Level or HE mathematics interest and foundations, see https://t.co/TyLcOQqEKC
Thank you AMSP!
@missradders I would, at least as an alterative way of understanding it - and explain why, or ask why they are equivalent in this case. It helps students appreciate the significance of it being a discrete distribution - and understand the adjustment you then have to make in boundaries.
@RJS2212@onechriswhite Spoilt for choice.... I didn't see it, but e.g.
Think of a number (any number, +/-, fraction, decimal :-) ), add 5, triple your answer, -11, subtract the number you first thought of, halve your answer, add 7, take away the number you first thought of.... and your answer is?
