Pupils had lots of hands-on experiences for completing the square with Amplify Polypad algebra tiles, then I was able to use part of a @DrFrostResource PowerPoint to make them a summary/review/revision video of 'Logan's method' for them to access. Didn't have this back in 1973!
Students can use mathigon.org and Polypad to hone their multiplication skills! There are fluency cards as well as d12 dice to practice facts! #ocsbMath #math #Polypad #FactFluency
