Year 9s learned to use the bar model to solve ratio questions problems today

Today Y7 celebrated their mistakes! #growthmindset thanks to @HelenHindle1 for the template!

[Ben Pointer @Mr_P_Maths]

Introduced Y7 to bar modelling today with mixed results. Some loved it, some skeptical. Enough interest to try it again though. #mathschat

@MrDraperMaths I'm going through it with my year 7s hoping it's going to build their reasoning of the four operations!

[Ben Pointer @Mr_P_Maths]

Going to attempt my first bar modelling lesson tomorrow. Excited to see how it goes!

Trying to plan, but I can't stop watching Monaco v Arsenal!

@WorkEdgeChaos brilliant read. I didn't get to any of those sessions so I'm looking forward to hearing about the other 2! #mathsconf2015

@MathsfrmScratch no worries 😄

[Ben Pointer @Mr_P_Maths]
