Looking at the wasted years in Ks3 with @Mannermatics at @CentralMathsHub and @nmmathshub’s conference.

Mini whiteboards (MWB) are an absolute essential for all classrooms. Here’s why:
- All-student responses
- Immediate corrective feedback
- Gradual release tasks as a whole class
- Check for understanding & formative assessment
- Student self-editing
- Engagement norms

*Daily Tip*
Try and build a culture in the classroom where rewards are focussed on effort. This can be a challenge, but by rewarding how much effort something takes allows you to be more consistent and will support pupils attitudes to their work. #YouGotThis

Considering plotting quadratics using a table of values (at both F/H) and how often it comes up as calc Vs non calc.
Does anybody have any stats or knowledge?

@hkettlemaths ooooh thats where it has come from....a colleague just asked me what method I would use.
How many methods are there?

@LearningMaths Or atleast a multiple of 3.14 with inflation. £9.42 has a nice ring to it 🥧

Absolutely love running over #cannockchase on mornings like this. I don’t think I even thought about work once 👌 #Teachersrunclub

@NCETM thankyou for the day out in Birmingham on the mastery specialist course! It is so good to be sitting down with like minded people outside of the everyday school context! Lots of food for thought on representation and variation and how the intertwine with one another 👌
English
@amspEMidlands @mathsjem @draustinmaths @alcmaths Perfect, thankyou! Using numberlines for rounding and bounds was an adaptation that I used last year….perfect for a more conceptual understanding! 👌 i love the use with fractions and fractions of amounts too

Help….I recently remember seeing a great resource for intervals and number lines but for some reason didnt ‘like’ or bookmark it so now cannot find it. I need to do integers leading to decimals. I wonder if anybody can help out by retweeting? @mathsjem @draustinmaths @alcmaths

@taylorda01 @draustinmaths @mathsjem @alcmaths I love the simplicity of it on the face, but then the variation will really make students think and pay attention👌

@chawnerwarner @draustinmaths @mathsjem @alcmaths I tweeted this, anx there are some great tasks on Don Steward's Median blog twitter.com/taylorda01/sta…
Dave Taylor@taylorda01
Little one has gymnastics on Saturdays, so I sit in the car and get some stuff done. Looking at number lines and scales, before rounding, after half term, so made this task for them. What number is the arrow pointing to?
English
@taylorda01 @draustinmaths @mathsjem @alcmaths Boom! That is the one. Thankyou so much, sorry I forgot to press like 🙈

I taught functions to two Y11 classes last half term, so made quite a few new resources. Some of them aren't very exciting(!), but could be of use to anyone with this topic coming up soon, including for A-level....

Do you know what’s also damaging to children?
Ridiculous amounts of supply
Masses of teachers leaving
Lack of funding for SEND & special schools
Overstretched mental health services
Unqualified staff teaching GCSE
Huge Ofsted pressure
Cost of living
But yep those 6 strike days 🙄
Gillian Keegan@GillianKeegan
Last year, school strikes resulted in 25 million school days being lost cumulatively. Children should not have to suffer a repeat of this disruption. I’m announcing that we will introduce minimum service levels in schools so that pupils get the education they need and deserve.

@hkettlemaths is it going to be week 7 on this weeks live? (19th oct)
English
@Arithmaticks @MrTaylorMaths2 @brynspiration Just that simple sentence at the bottom provokes enough discussion to clearly get the point across.
Better than my boring question of ‘what is the problem with using the mean here’
English
@usmannasir93 @Mamamatician @Dempseymaths @pbrucemaths @ravenmaths @mathsmumof2 Such a wealth of MWB questions and then example and your turns.
