🎄 we’re more biased than those coins they warn you about at GCSE, but @TheMrEMachine is one of our own so it’s okay!

Secret Santa gift for someone in your Maths department, maybe? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Mathematics in Business with 10.1 through the medium of some very successful Lobster businesses (and some not so profitable😬)

Then a brief intro to Topology with some Möbius strip wizardry from Mr E 🪄

Happy to be joined by a very mindblown @Dixonsma_MrsK 🤯

Bit of cross-curricular work looking at The “Predatory Bugs” problem and Pursuit Curves with 9.3 today bringing in @dixonsma_art 🎨🖌️🖼️

Enrichment right up until the last second of the year. 💪🏼

Excited to share that we're working on a new @SparxMaths student interface for Sept...
✅ Refreshed + clean look and feel
✅ Simplified bookwork checks
✅ Improved + quicker question navigation
We'll then work tirelessly make things even better for students based on feedback on what's going well and what we could improve on. Hope sounds exciting!

Even after a long day, there is nothing stopping Mr E from doing extra Maths CPD 💪🏼

Not a Northerner though… 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🏉

Big thanks to @KandMMathsHub for letting this Northerner gatecrash their CPD session on Ratio tables this afternoon! 👏🏼

That was just a taster of the level they’ll be working at next year. 😏

Bit of cross-curricular work today to celebrate Sports Day - Mr Evans’ second favourite day of the academic year except Pi Day; obviously.

@dixonsma_sci @nrichmaths @dixonsma_eng Overall, it was VERY close between Rayyan and Ali vs. Aizah and Faizah so we may need a photo-finish @DixonsMA_PE 😏

Esha and Jabin would maybe have beaten them all for time, if it not for the doubled up country that threw everything off and forced Esha into early retirement. 🤦🏼‍♂️

Heron of Alexandria (Greece) is known for finding a way to determine the area of a triangle from its side lengths. #WeeklyMathematician

Extra: He also was 1st to compute square roots iteratively. See Heron's Formula w. an applet!- https://t.co/jIe9YAewWn #WeeklyMathematician
