@Nat_Numeracy@Bobby_Seagull@BBCBreakfast I’m all for making maths fun, visual and engaging, but most importantly maths should be meaningful. Numbers represent a numerosity & are not abstract! @Bobby_Seagull and @Nat_Numeracy why don’t you support research informed methods such as @spotonnumbers which is colourful & fun?
I've said it before and I'll say it again, ratio tables for teaching SDT have genuinely transformed the way we teach this topic. Students can articulate their learning so much clearer.
