Does school mathematics sometimes feel like a checklist of disconnected procedures? What if instead we focused on five BIG IDEAS? Explore this brand new, comprehensive and completely free website for teachers: bigmathematicalideas.org #MathEd #MathTeacher #BigMathematicalIdeas

🩹Beyond quick fixes in FE maths🩹 I’ve written a new blog for @ncetm.bsky.social about improving outcomes for post-16 GCSE & FSQ students. The challenges across FE are familiar. We see them every day… What’s shifting is how we respond. www.ncetm.org.uk/features/mov... #FEMaths #MathsHubs

An early start on a miserable morning to get down to London for the first @amiemathematics.bsky.social members day. But that just means the day can only get better! Especially when I get to catch up with the lovely Emma Bell and @learningmaths.bsky.social (amongst many others I am sure).

The field of maths has always had remarkable women. History has just been quieter about them. A few years ago I wrote about Mary Somerville in my Roots column for @chalkdustmag.bsky.social - a mathematician who followed her curiosity despite the expectations placed on women at the time. 🧵

Great article by @tomrocksmaths.bsky.social. Getting to the top levels in maths is possible for all groups and backgrounds, but it is currently harder for some people than others. Hence why equity in maths education at all prior attainment levels is so important @meimaths.bsky.social

I’m thinking about similarity at the moment and realised that I haven’t done a Less, Same, More for ages. (I first came across the task type in a session from John Mason I think) Does this work?

Setting up resources for this intervention phase with yr 11 I'm really pleased to see the last phase worked. I see this because I can't reuse any of the old resources because they know those topics. So much work but at least it impacted.

Seven squares. What’s the angle? #geometrypuzzle

There are six small pink squares, and a larger tilted purple square which shares ones vertex with the bottom pink square. One vertex of the top pink square lies on the top edge of the purple square. A line from the bottom right vertex of the rightmost pink square makes an unknown angle with the left side of the purple square.

I just walked past this and noticed three triangles. I’m pretty confident that, if this was done accurately, the three triangles are congruent. Are you convinced? How do you see it?

Hello Secondary maths community, I know that ‘I do, we do, you do’ is a very common classroom structure and am thinking about other ‘named’ lesson structures that people are regularly using? Anyone have any others to add to my list
