I've added a new section to the site today - A-level Revision. Over the next few months I hope to add to the revision resources, starting with four A-level grids - algebraic methods, quadratics, exponentials and logs, and circle geometry.

I know a lot of people think about 3 Γ· 1/2 as "how many 1/2 fit into 3?" but there is another model!

Here are two ways we can think about division.

Mathematical Objects: 3D wooden puzzle with Grant Sanderson

I had fun joining @peterrowlett.net and @steckl.es recently on their mathematical objects podcast, talking about my wood puzzle collection. Most of the time was spent struggling desperately to describe a highly visual topic in an audio-only context.
