This year marks my tenth year as a teacher of Maths. During that time, I've built up a bank of teaching resources and ideas which I want to share with others. Some can be incorporated into lessons and others act as discussion points.

The majority of posts are focused around Maths, but there are some which look at pedagogy and CPD which can be used in other subjects/settings. Search for lesson resources using the tags at the side. Pedagogy has it's own section.

Resources can be used in educational settings, including private tuition.

The President's Percentages

Here's a video from Forbes about President Trump's percentage reduction on drug prices.

An interesting set of figures which could prompt a nice class discussion.

What does it mean if the drug prices are reduced by 50%?

What does it mean if the drug prices are reduced by 1500%?

I'm not sure if Insulin is included in this, but a quick search shows that Insulin costs about $100 in the USA. Following a 1500% price reduction, what would happen?
