A mathematics resources compilation.

- Graspable Math – division symbol
- Random Acts of Maths
- Vocabulary
Amanda Austin has added further Revision Grids (3rd April) to her brilliant resource collection. All her revision resources are available from the Revision section of Dr Austin Maths.
These revision grids are included in the GCSE 2024 revision collection.
(For more on Circle Theorems, including GeoGebra applets – scroll down a little on this Geometry page,)
From The Chalkface, this index, which also gives the main topics assessed for Edexcel Maths and Further Maths A Level, up to 2023, is very useful; the index includes a description of each question. We can also see a table showing question frequency. Note that many questions involve multiple topics – see the notes on The Chalkface spreadsheet.
It’s great to see the division symbol is now supported by Graspable Math; try it out on this canvas by Erik Weitnauer.
This will be really useful when looking at the order of operations with younger students and also for the division of fractions.
Remember that we have the option (in settings) to choose how we want to display the multiplication symbol.
For more on Graspable Math, see this series of pages.
Try ‘Random Acts of Maths’ from Maths Ed Ideas, which has over 300 “pocket-sized problems, teasers, curios, provocations, inspirations, etc.”
In Mathematical Miscellany #95, I featured Matt Woodfine’s addition to Maths Whiteboard which enables us to see the meanings of terms used. I have now included this in the Vocabulary collection.
This is a great feature on Maths White Board – choose any Model it board and you can see the meanings of terms used; in this example we can look at the meaning of simplify or expression.
