Hello Maths Teachers, can anyone help me find a set of worksheets/booklets for the Edexcel Entry Level Certificate for refugee children in my school? I a set for level 1 would be amazing to have a set for level 2 and 3 that they can work through. @mathsjem.bsky.social - would so appreciate a shout!

Recently I was playing with the Square-Sums Puzzle (as explored previously by @standupmaths.bsky.social on Numberphile) and realised it would be fun for schools. So here is a FREE teacher resource: think-maths.co.uk/square-sums (and enjoy its use being modelled by my in-house mathematician below).

Finally got round to trying to book appt to donate blood, to discover I can't donate blood because I had a blood transfusion a couple of years ago (which, ironically, is what prompted me to donate blood). Wishing I'd done it more times before. Someone else do it for me!
This is fun. I just submitted something...

Sunshine and Tangrams 😊
Cake(s) I made to celebrate every member of our family being a square age, in the square year (in other words, age 36, I made myself four birthday cakes).
