@n_sam29 @sxpmaths Not often. So I break them down into worked example / your turns. That match the slides we've collated. And then I set them off on the practice questions in lesson with the other questions to be finished as homework.

@MrBettsMaths @sxpmaths Thank you. Do students work through them with you? Do students rush ahead and miss important info for their notes?

What are people's thoughts on curriculum booklets in Maths? Really keen to hear any thoughts or advice! We currently have them for KS5 and we're exploring the idea of them in KS4. @MccreaEmma @mathsjem @mathsmrgordon @mrbartonmaths

@sxpmaths @n_sam29 We've used the textbook and Dr Frost slides to create the ones we use. However these are the first iterations and we are revisiting them to improve them by adding tasks from Resourcaholic and Integral maths etc.

@n_sam29 @MrBettsMaths @mathsjem @MccreaEmma @mathsmrgordon @mrbartonmaths I’m also interested in the KS5 use of booklets if you’re happy to explain a bit more and/or share an example!

@mradamkohlbeck Hi Adam would you mind sharing with me please?

Finishing this off this afternoon.. always a labour of love. Really hope our teachers approve of how I’ve tried to pull together where we are, where we want to get to and how we’re going to reframe some thinking so we can get moving! Next year’s priority - responsive teaching

@SparxMaths Have done, just haven’t heard back 😅 should I re-register?

@MrBettsMaths Glad you like them :) you can register your interest here sparxmaths.com

📣We've developed📣 two free transition booklets for schools. One to cover Y6 - Y7 and one to cover GCSE to A-Level. You can download each booklet for free from the links. sparxmaths.com/transition-boo… and sparxmaths.com/transition-boo…

@hegartymaths @SparxMaths A copy would be great please! Helping students transition is so important and something we are trying to develop at our school.

✳ Coming soon ✳ Next week, we'll be releasing a brill maths transition pack, with space for workings & answers for marking. It's got 100 @SparxMaths Qs over 12 key maths topics differentiated to support all students preparing to start y7. RT if you want me to send you a copy

@tombennett71 Looks good! You’re next challenge, the LEGO Death Star. I’ve got mine hanging from the ceiling 👌🏻

It is accomplished
