Of course. I suppose which ones will be the biggest bang for their buck? We don't have sufficient tech in school to use interactive ones.

If you had a limited budget for manipulatives for a department, what would you spend it on? @mrmattock.bsky.social @studymaths.bsky.social

Interested to see if any schools in Wales take it up!

Heyo! I have a meeting with area leaders on numeracy across the curriculum. What are high-performing departments doing here? I want to avoid any shoe-horning! @mathsjem.bsky.social

@numberclub.com hey! I have tried downloading your app to use with my son through Google Play and it said it was made for an older version of Android. Is there a work around?

Taking over as KS3 lead from Sept. My head is spinning with where to start. Any advice? I've settled on developing retrieval do nows and mapping out the topics that need to be covered.

I’ve kept every single one. I call it my “don’t quit teaching” folder.

Give a card. Say something nice. Don’t lie.

Does anyone use oversized exercise books in maths? Trying to tackle time spent by dept trimming down a4 worksheets and also just scrappy books in general! Moving away from booklets of WRM worksheets this year at KS3

@mathsjem.bsky.social ?

This is a very sensible suggestion! Manic shared drives are a nightmare

Thank you for taking the time to respond. Your advice is useful and I'll print the infographic for my planner!

Harvesting ideas. What do you do as your maths lesson on year 6 transition day?

@realgeoffbarton.bsky.social Anything out there on how to ensure conversations students are having remain on task? I think this is the biggest challenge for our school in implementing. Very quickly chatter spreads and becomes difficult to track who is and isn't sticking to the task.

@adamboxereducation.bsky.social Hello! What is the slickest set up you suggest with mini whiteboards? At the moment I have zipped A4 bags with 2 whiteboards and the pens with rubbers on the top. They get so dirty from using them every lesson and I haven't found an easy way to clean them ...

I wonder, how many of the schools with the strongest P8 scores are following White Rose Maths?
