A picture of some of Don Steward's hand written tasks.
So yesterday I was lucky enough to spend some time looking through Don Steward's lifetime of tasks and notes stored at @lborodme.bsky.social
In case you're not aware (I wasn't!), these have all been digitised and are available here:

This is genius in its simplicity.
I am simple, which is why Iβve never thought of this genius.
Thank you.

A grid of empty boxes with the headings:
A is the point, B is the point,Midpoint of AB, Length of AB.
Gradient of a parallel and perpendicular line.
y-intercept, x intercept, equation of the line and sketch.
(Yet) another "Blank is Best" slide used in #MathsToday.
I made up the coordinates of A and B and Y10 had to try and fill the rest.

Two congruent triangles, arranged on a straight line so that the angle between their hypotenuses is a right angle.
I used another βblank is bestβ in #MathsToday.
We first chose a few angles to show the two red lines are always perpendicular.
Then we chose a few lengths to show the gradient of one red line is always the negative reciprocal of the other.

This whole event is an actual <beep> show.
Not sure why it was allowed to be aired in a recorded event?
Lots of ignorance about the disease today but also seems like these actors werenβt even given the decency of a check-in. Slurs, even unintentional, have consequences & inflict harm and upset.

I think I was maybe harsh on it. I was expecting it to be superb and it fell short. Probably deserved four. Maybe. Let me know what you think!

Book 12: When the cranes fly south

My soul has been broken by this tale. A beautifully written exploration of old age, loss of dignity and facing the inevitable. I totally fell in love with Bo and Sixten and sobbedβ¦a lot.

Book 11: Good People π¦π« π¦π« π¦π« π¦π« Β½
An engaging & engrossing read. Told from multiple βwitnessβ viewpoints we try to uncover the truth about a tragic event. I found the whole thing moving in its exploration of xenophobia & Islamophobia. You wonβt get a neat answer but that is kinda the point. Almost a 5

I thought I loved James then I read this. Wow. Brilliant. Crime procedural, murder, history, social commentary, comedy; this book does it all. Thoroughly enjoyed.
Warning; some gruesome elements.

I reckon the last time the son of a sovereign was taken into custody in Britain was the Duke of Monmouth in 1685.
