Sad to see the end of Moorcroft Pottery - one more piece of our history to go with some blame put on ‘a rash of cheap, illegal forgeries from overseas!!!!
Is this from Conrad Wolfram being considered within the curriculum review? “In real-world maths, computers do almost all the calculating; by contrast, in educational maths, people do almost all the calculating.” "The fundamental problem at the heart of today’s maths education crisis.”
@squareclub.bsky.social Are you able to confirm who is behind Squareclub and your experience in the T&L of mathematics please.
Looking forward to leading a day of Mathematics and Science with teachers. Sharing a curricula vision and effective pedagogy.
Fractions always a topic where visuals can help. However need children to decide the questions. E.g “What if we had …….. " Polypad is great for working with children rather than asking them to watch a 'fixed’ PPT animation. Love Polypad. @polypad.bsky.social @davidporas.bsky.social
If you have not tried Slido.com I would recommend giving it a try - integrates so nicely in PPT. I really like it and have to say the Slido support team are superb at responding quickly.

Geoff Wake is kicking off the day with his keynote about behaviours for leading and participating in collaborative lesson research. #cpdextravaganza
Today - first up is Keynote from Geoff Wake. So excited to be in the company of such experienced knowledgable Mathematics Educators. #cpdextravaganza
What a great day at NAMA AMET extravaganza (conf). Outstanding key note from Oxford Jennie Ingram and great conversations with so many others. Honoured to be invited to lead a workshop. Thanks Ruth and the team for organising.
Here - and in plenty of time for #WorldBookDay- is a link to our ECMG picture book list linked to all areas of #maths - Enjoy! earlymaths.org/maths-pictur...

@polypad.bsky.social users - do you know if you can edit a function box rule on an iPad using the pencil?
And the bird box watching season has started.
A final 'remainder' for the SatisFraction blog and forthcoming book: satisfry.blogspot.com
To get a reason for all of the 4 sections on the WODB grid you sometimes have to think ‘outside of the box’ Do you have other solutions for this grid? @davidporas.bsky.social @ecarda1.bsky.social @pdlouisep.bsky.social
Definitely feeling the need for some apricity - some sunshine essential for blue sky thinking
Word of the day, for the umpteenth time, is ‘apricate’, the sister of ‘apricity’. It means to bask in the warmth of the sun, especially on a chilly day.

Just seen this from TTS. Great time to buy their high quality resources. I recommend their Algebra Tiles and Cusienaire rods to everyone. @ttsresources.bsky.social
Which are most suitable for use in the Primary Classroom. Recommendations please. @polypad.bsky.social
WODB polypad.amplify.com/wodb?tile=nu... Considering difficulty of some generated questions. E.g. A only shape with both dimensions even numbers B Perimeter value< area value C Shape with least difference between dimensions D Only shape with a dimension of 1 What other reasons can you see?

KS1 Assessment Tasks go overseas! Spot that Set up the task, Look & Listen and Assess triangle Logo. Great hearing how the teachers in Jersey enjoyed the materials. @helenjwc.bsky.social @pdlouisep.bsky.social
TAs loved Stick and Split and could see the mathematical understanding and connections being developed. No speed anxiety - so important for children.@stickandsplit.bsky.social
PISA outcomes identify relative weakness in Visualisation, Shape and Space, Geometry for our 15 year olds. This weakness can also be seen in KS2 SATs outcomes nationally. Maybe we should be reviewing Geometry in the curriculum and the PD provided to teachers. lnkd.in/eihiNEht
Looking forward to leading a session at the NEHS MATHS HUB conference - March 5th. @nehsmathshub.bsky.social

The @LSE_MathsHub Research and Innovation Workgroup are looking to see how the appropriate use of @MathigonOrg Polypad and all its features can impact on the learning of mathematics for our children. So far the outcomes are exciting.
Quote from a Primary TA illustrates what is being lost in transition to KS3 where there is a lack of manipulatives available for children to use. Children’s confidence & enjoyment of maths declines, as seen in the recent research @ncetm.bsky.social @inspiringmaths.bsky.social @loumaths.bsky.social
