I am super proud of these resources for maths teachers showcasing a diverse range of mathematicians & linking their work to the curriculum. They're a real team effort & new ones were added today to celebrate LGBT+ History Month. More to come soon 😁 #MathsToday #AMSP amsp.org.uk/resource/9f7...

Students learn faster when they see what something is and what it isn’t. One of the most important aspect of curriculum planning + instructional design is effectively using examples and non-examples. 🧵⬇️

I split all the GCSE Maths past papers into odd and even numbers making the perfect 45min homework paper. Then I filmed a tutorial vid for each, linked it with a QR code on the front of each paper & listed the Sparx codes for each question. They’re free and you can download them here: bit.ly/4jyYz8C

Been working with teens excluded from school. All have #SEND (most commonly ASD/ADHD/DLD) but were either diagnosed too late or not even assessed until after they were excluded. It’s heartbreaking ‘81% of children with behavioural disorders have significant language difficulties’

Nothing about this looks sensible or sustainable. Agree with @andrewoneill.bsky.social that the private / state disparity warrants a closer investigation. www.thetimes.com/article/7233...

Had a great discussion in our department CPD about the link between student oracy, mathematical communication and understanding. How do you ensure students know which expression you mean when you are explaining? How do you explicitly teach them to talk about their maths? #MathsToday #iteachmaths

#mathstoday Love some of the ncetm checkpoints, so good! Going to trial looking at some in our department meetings before we teach it. First up…perimeter.

Your regular reminder from a very smug deputy head that our first GCSE and A Level cohorts to go through their Key Stages with no target grades got their results last summer and they were some of our best ever as a school. Maybe you're worried unnecessarily about the risk of putting them in the bin.

Snow day today so will be seeing our pupils for the start of term tomorrow. I don’t ask how their Christmas/holidays have been as for some it may not have been great. Instead I will say something along the lines of “Welcome back, it’s so lovely to see you.” and do some one to one check ins.

With the start of a new year, I thought it might be a good idea to make a thread to share the resources on Corbettmaths and how they will be incredibly useful for students (and their teachers) preparing for exams in 2025 🧵

I play a lot of board games and card games at my current school. You can learn so much from kids from how they interact and play a game.

#mathstoday No maths today as it was our Christmas Fayre so I spent the day on our tomobola stall talking to present and ex pupils and their families. Great day 🎄 A lovely colleague has also bought me this book as a Xmas gift which I can’t wait to get started on. Such a thoughtful present.

In #mathstoday I used mathsbot festive simultaneous equations. Then exam practice for one class who have an external exam in January. Last lesson for them and great focus. Then used the hidato Christmas tree puzzles, never tried them before and loved it 🎄 Thank you @mathequalslove.bsky.social!

On Monday afternoon it’s my tlr time. From this year I’ve been able to work from home, it’s hard to explain just how much more beneficial this has been. I know primary teachers often get this but it’s often unheard of in secondary. If you can do it, do it!
