The MA Stoke and Staffordshire Branch

New branch of the Mathematical Association covering Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire.

[Natalie Wright 🐝 @Mamamatician]

Increasing waiting time...

- count an extra 3 seconds (wait a little bit longer than might feel comfortable)
- use mass participation strategies to increase engagement and slow you down

I loved hearing how Don Steward created and trialled his tasks and continually improved them, such an inspiration. In his teaching he would pause for a long time to get students to think. I know I should do it more but it can be hard to handle the silence.

[Miss Konstantine @giftedHKO]

@StokeMEP @mrshawthorne7 @ma_stoke @StokeonTrentOA I wish I could have attended! Looks like a great meet

[Lucyjc1612 @Lucyjc1612]
