@atmmathematics.bsky.social On the way home after conference. Thanks to the organisers. You made it happen. Gd to be with maths educators for ever pushing the boundaries of possibility to reveal & sustain the mathematician in all learners. Reflecting on Gattegno's 1st presidential address to ATAM

An early start to futureproofingthecurriculum.org.uk It's always refreshing to spend a few days with colleagues who are independent from govt agencies & commercial enterprises. A chance to refocus on the learning of mathematics & to think hard about what that means for curriculum design & teaching.
