In March this year, a set off on a solo walk across the entire length of Britain, from Land’s End to John O’Groats. It is the most extraordinary and life changing experience I’ve ever had. I published a daily video and blog documenting the journey. markwalks.com

'Two negatives make a positive' - hard-wiring what’s not always correct? -10 + -3 = -13 Are teachers causing what I call ‘Cognitive Confusion’? Can we eradicate? @jwrightmaths.bsky.social @peterfoulds77.bsky.social @brunoreddy.bsky.social @markmccourt.bsky.social @sarahjwaite.bsky.social

After 34 years of research - my order to help pupils to total instant recall of times tables - especially for those who struggle. This is not necessarily the order that times tables need to be taught for understanding.

Australian maths educators! I’m interested in what pedagogical approaches are being recommended/mandated in your state, system, sector or school. Can you point me at web links? DMs if you’d prefer.
