@vueling I've had no communication from Vueling apart from whether I want to spend more money with them to upgrade my flight. Shambles

@runningstitch @MissNBedford @BorrettShane This looks very interesting

@runningstitch I'll fish out a copy for you on Friday

OK, so the Y6/7 transition packs were soooooo popular, that I was thinking of asking the unbelievable content design team @SparxMaths to create a booklet/course to support for y11/12 transition (i.e. getting ready for AS). If a good idea, RT this to sigal "yes please I want one"

We decided to adopt the definition which is used in Shanghai

@jcrowthermaths @SEMathsHub @SRWAcademy Their main point was they had discussed a a dept and decided the definition they would use, so they are consistent across classes and years. @masterfosse have I got that right?

@EmathsUK Hi Mark, I'm just messaging to say that you would be very welcome to visit The Sir Robert Woodard Academy on Monday 7th June. We are in Lancing which is very close to Brighton.

@EmporiumMaths [email protected]. Thanks

@EmporiumMaths I'm trying to book onto the course but the website gives a http error when I enter my details. Can you help. Thanks

[phil daniell @masterfosse]

@Miss_F_Rosler @Just_Maths I can recommend this from https://t.co/rzIO6mEPPV hours of fun

@Just_Maths @MathsTeacherKYP @ThainMike My concern is the grade boundaries on past papers. I want to find a school/schools whose grades haven’t changed over the last 5 years. It would be really useful to see the raw scores pupils are getting on papers at the end of May.

@Just_Maths @kangaroomaths That’s great news as I’m in school next Tuesday. I think that pallet has our name on it.

@louataylor @runningstitch @caseyfg @BorrettShane @misswilsonmaths @StedmanJohanna Nearly. Are you in the assembly?

[phil daniell @masterfosse]

@runningstitch @caseyfg @BorrettShane @misswilsonmaths @louataylor @StedmanJohanna Yeah I’ll be going. I recently attended a remote cpd session run by a London maths hub. It was great. The only thing I could fault was the lack of refreshments.

@Just_Maths @runningstitch @VenessJamie Hi Mel, it would be great if you could also add our NQT to the list. What’s your email address? Thanks

[phil daniell @masterfosse]

@mathsjem Gutted. I met him in Leicester during a cpd session and he blew my mind. His legacy will live on. RIP

@masterfosse @caseyfg @misswilsonmaths @mrsdenyer @mathsjem please RT!

[phil daniell @masterfosse]

@runningstitch @MrMattock @ProfSmudge @SEMathsHub The lesson did follow the point you’re making Peter. I can see how the pupils work can be construed as not being precise. So I’ll attemp to give some background to it. The pupils were drawing conclusions from previous examples and the board was shown for further discussion.

@mrshawthorne7 If the topic is algebra then I often use a joke I once heard. If I received a pound for every time someone said "when will I ever need algebra?" Then i'd have n pounds.

@meteachmaths @Just_Maths @EmporiumMaths Thanks. I’m always worried about using the November boundaries as they’re not derived from a whole year 11 cohort. However, they do seem to fit the grades we expect the pupils to be at.

[phil daniell @masterfosse]

@Just_Maths @meteachmaths @EmporiumMaths We’re currently using the Nov 19 papers for mocks. Which grade boundaries did you use?
