I bet that blog title got your attention ... you may well be disappointed!

We aren't producing "best guess" papers or predicted papers this year BUT what we are doing is more practice questions than you can shake a stick at. Me and Seager sat down and agreed a load of questions/topics and he wanted to produce a "Bumper" practice paper but they were mahoosive so I've produced 3 different papers (with mark-schemes and examiners reports) using Edexcel's exam wizard for each tier and we're calling them "between papers" practice papers ... catchy eh?

Note that there is only one higher tier here at the minute as I want to add some more top end topics in to them so they'll be up tomorrow afternoonish.

As usual .. they may or may not be useful for additional practice over the half term break and we'll be emailing them out to parents, adding to the school VLE and printing and physically handing copies to some of our students!

Foundation Bumper "between papers" practice papers for the Summer 2017 9-1 GCSE

Higher Bumper "between papers" practice papers for the Summer 2017 9-1 GCSE

On a personal note... I did it! I sat the exam today with our year 11. To sum it up: -> TOUGH but I knew it would be - it was pretty much as expected apart from the last question which was ridiculous but I loved it ... I didn't get it right though! I'll write more about the experience on the weekend but it was brilliant to do ... Now is not the time to mull over paper 1 we need to move on but I promise I will write it up ..... I'm knackered and need sleep!!

This is a new section to the site in here I am going to start sharing the revision mats I am creating for both Higher and Foundation candidates in the final countdown to the exams. These question will be relevant to both the old and new GCSE. In designing the questions I have specific classes in mind, so I'm hoping this will mean the bank of mats will become appropriate to all subsets with both foundation and higher classes.

I have used these in the maths classroom as both just a mat and also with using a revision clock where students have to complete 12 questions within 60 minutes and the clock is divided into 12 x 5 minutes slots. Some students managed to beat the 60 minute clock and start an extra clock (Extra Time). I got the revision clock idea from @Mathsjem who has posted about it here with links to many more downloadable maths clock resources.

Revision Clocks are taking twitter by storm, I have made and completed many with my students over this past year. So below are the ones I've made without snipping questions from old maths GCSE Papers. I have lots with exam questions snipped onto them but I'm not sure about sharing them with copyright laws etc. Answers are provided in the click here option underneath a picture. I am uploading more resources and answers throughout every week in the lead up to exams.

The idea behind revision clocks is that students ether focus on random topics, a category or one specific skill within a set time frame. Usually the time frame is 60 minutes and students need to be able to pace themselves accrodingly through the GCSE style exam questions. Revision clocks are ideal for revision as it is a directed task for students which can include differentiation. It supports the students in needing to get both the basics and the complexities of examination correct. I find it best to allow students 20 minutes silent focus on the clocks, allowing them to really test their knowledge before communicating and getting help of their peers in the class on the questons they may be unsure of.

I hope you find my take on the GCSE revision clocks useful.

Please Note: These are just some of the topics that may be covered for GCSE maths which may help with revision

About GCSE Maths

GCSE maths has a grading system that uses numbers 1-9 to identify levels of performance with 9 being the top level. A student will either enter for the Higher tier covering grades 4-9 or for the Foundation tier covering grades 1-5.

There will be three papers at each tier, two papers where candidates can use a calculator and a third paper where calculators are not to be used.

The syllabus is divided into six sections that test

3. Ratio, proportion and rates of change

4. Geometry and measure

5. Probability

6. Statistics

The main examination boards for GCSE maths are Edexcel, AQA and OCR.

On this site you will find plenty of video tutorials which hopefully will give you the confidence and support you need to tackle your GCSE maths course.

Don't forget to take a look at the GCSE math exam tips page.

For me the motivation to become a mathematician was the sheer beauty of the ideas, structures, and new ways of looking at the world. A world without knowing about primes, symmetry and 4D geometry would be like never hearing Mozart, seeing Picasso, or experiencing Shakespeare. A world without maths would be impoverished politically, technologically, scientifically and culturally.

Great article by Marcus du Sautoy concerning the age old question: Why do we have to learn this? - www.maa.org/sites/default/files/pdf/Mathhorizons/supplement/MH-CoreyWeb.pdf

And another in response to the same question - @vaslona and a third which looks at it from the students point of view - www.squeaktime.com/blog/when-will-we-ever-need-this-in-real-life @dannybrown Click here

The list is clearly a starting point, but all of these continue to provide some excellent resources, blogs, news etc...

If you fancy writing your own blog then Jo @mathsjem believes the top three are wordpress, blogger and weebly.

For examples: RKMS is wordpress www.resourceaholic.com is blogger and www.accessmaths.co.uk is weebly
