Ready for Maths

 Year 12 to 13 Maths is tough during the holiday. Most of my students have been attempting at least 2 AS level papers each week to maintain and improve their Maths skills over the holiday. A period of consolidation really improves their Maths skills.

Sodium

Cutting a piece of Sodium to see how easily it cuts with a scalpel, and then watching the shiny metal surface as it reacts with the air in the atmosphere.

 

Lesson Prep

 Lesson Prep - learning all about schema.org and tags to put into websites ready to teach some new students. Part of the fun of teaching is actaully the teachers learning new things.

Online Maths classes

 Online Maths lessons seem to be very popular. No travel and working with virtual classmates.

The setup does make a difference in education. Teaching and demonstrating GCSE and A-level Maths and Further Maths at Hemel Private Tuition, part of Philip M Russell Ltd.

Old Oscilloscope

 Getting out the very old Oscilloscope to demonstrate how the machine works. The lid comes off easily revealing all the parts inside. Students are amazed at the size of a CRT.

Linking Sciences

 Food tests where Chemistry and Biology interact. I like to remove artificial barriers between the sciences and get students to think about linking Engineering and Maths with Chemistry, Physics and Biology.
