Maths: ESSENTIALMATHS from @HFL_Education. Judge @ICTmagic said: “This vast resource offers teachers everything they need to teach maths in a structured way” #TeachAwards
What should/could the #primarymaths curriculum look like? What’s important? What is foundational knowledge? What is fluency, what should it focus on? All key questions which I had the absolutely pleasure of discussing with a superb team. @OUPPrimary@Hertsmaths@HFL_Education
Excited to have launched another cohort of schools on to the ‘Making fluent and flexible calculators’ journey today, alongside the amazing Gill Shearsby-Fox … #phonicsformathslnkd.in/gxeYQWwr

Closing the day with @HarberCharlie sharing her fascinating research into CPD and maths teaching anxiety. So interesting to consider implications for supporting all teachers.
#SeptemberINSET
How can we strengthen the transition between maths in the EYFS and the year 1 maths curriculum? Deborah Mulroney looking at the complexities behind counting & how we can transfer vocabulary, models, experiences & manipulatives to build connections. @HFL_Education September INSET
STEP AWAY FROM THE SCISSORS !! We all love photos but sticking in endless photos of pupils playing games isn't necessary. @NicolaAMaths outlines how to provide meaningful opportunities to reflect / evaluate maths gaming, which could form part of a verbal or written reflection.
Session 3 @ @hfleducation September Primary INSET. Fighting the after lunch lag with a multitude of maths games! @NicolaAMaths demonstrating how simple games can have a BIG impact. Endless possibilities with 'The Winner Takes It All' & 'Making 10'.
And we are all back together to hear from @HarberCharlie share the last five years of her doctorate research project. How can gaining a more holistic understanding of how teachers feel about maths give a better insight into how best to provide support & develop teachers?
I am looking for primary schools in the Hertfordshire area to participate in my research and receive a free maths-based staff meeting from me.
If you feel your school would be able to support me, please email me at charlotte.harber@hfleducation.org
