Unless my maths is wrong (which could well be the case), I reckon that today, Tuesday 24th February 2015, marks 100 days until the non-calculator Edexcel GCSE exam paper.

In order to mark this momentous occasion, each day I am tweeting out one Higher and one Foundation GCSE maths multiple choice question from my Diagnostic Questions website to aid students with their Maths GCSE revision.

I firmly believe the secret to success with maths is regular practise, and with Diagnostic Questions students can get that on their phones, tablets or computers, answering question on the bus, toilet*, or whilst having their tea.

I have selected a wide range of questions to test as many of the core skills needed for the Higher and Foundation maths exam. And of course, students can benefit not only by having a go at the questions themselves and practise explaining their answer, but crucially by reading explanations given by students from all around the world that just might help them understand a topic or concept that has always alluded them.

I tweet the same questions each day at the following times and from the following accounts:

8am from @mrbartonmaths

5pm from @MathsDQs

8pm from @mrbartonmaths

Feel free to either encourage your students to follow these accounts, or re-tweet them from your school/personal twitter account.

At my school we are also printing out the daily questions and displaying them on our Maths notice board to encourage students to talk to each other about each question.

To give you a taste, the first day’s questions can be found below.

*one of my Year 11s told me he thinks better whilst on the toilet. The phrase “too much information” has never been more appropriate.
