"Alternatively, with a more connected approach to learning, the more mathematics you learn the easier the subject gets... you have an increasing number of conceptual connections... ideas make more and more sense... and you have less and less to consciously remember." Colin Foster in MT295

#MathsEdPoetry day 3 (well almost, I won't have time in the morning!) The I-we-you structure in lessons can easily become an "I", then, "I-again-but-with-minimal-pupil-interaction", then, "Off-you-go-whether-you-understand-it-or-not" structure instead. This is a pupil perspective.
A poem about what happens when the I-we-you structure starts to have more focus than the learning.

#MathsEdPoetry day 2. Both the @atmmathematics.bsky.social principle "the power to learn rests with the learner" and Daniel Willingham's phrase "learning is the residue of thought" point to the idea that learning is done by the learner. It is not something that can be done to them. From MT287.
A poem about the experience of learning.
