Did you know we actually do math on the Math is FigureOutAble podcast? You don't see that on most math teaching podcasts.

Been thinking about the tiny, simple changes that can be made to questions to create discussion tasks.
Cover the denominators and ask children to predict what the denominators could be. No single answer = interesting conversations!

How would you calculate 75 × 28?

Traditional column, grid method, or is there a more efficient way?

I’ve never been particularly inspired by teaching place value for the 273th time 🫠

A few yrs ago I made these puzzles for any UKS2 children secure with PV to crack on with whilst I plugged gaps elsewhere. Look boring but have always gone down a storm!

Today's mental math exercise. Fastest Ss finished in 40 seconds. Ss probably would be a little quicker, but I make them write down the time after each column. 2/3 got all 3 correct. 1/3 got 2 out of 3 correct. These are adapted from Number Races here. https://t.co/0HaHd7vJH0

This engaging activity helps students deepen their understanding and learn from their mistakes.

🌟Each day, our students pick a sentence starter, like “Today I worked hard to accomplish…” and reflect on their achievements. This not only boosts their confidence but also helps them set goals for the week ahead!

The Pale Blue Dot is an iconic photograph of Earth taken by NASA's Voyager 1 Spacecraft on February 14, 1990.

When Voyager 1 was 3.7 billion miles (6 billion kilometers) miles from the sun, far beyond Neptune, mission managers commanded it to look back toward home for a final time. It snapped a series of 60 images to create the first "family portrait" of our solar system.

The picture known as the Pale Blue Dot shows Earth within a scattered ray of sunlight. Voyager 1 was so far away that Earth was just a point of light about a pixel in size.

Next, I asked them to draft a poster about one of those sets of numbers, using some materials too.

[Simon Gregg @Simon_Gregg]

I asked what 'families, clubs or teams' of numbers the Gr 2 students could think of. Quite a range...!

[Maths Play @mathsplay_org]

Box the Numbers is a great variation on a classic fave (Paddocks, aka Dots & Boxes) that invites arithmetic practice in a meaningful way.

A @mathforlove gem, check out the boards & notes supporting

Over 5000 teachers downloaded the 2023 Puzzle, so I knew I had to make a 2024 version. This 2024 Puzzle is available in two different levels. Arrange the strips (horizontally and/or vertically) in the grid to form the digits in 2024.

If the idea of using CUBES to solve math problems has left you frustrated and wanting something better, check out the recording of my Why We Should Reconsider Using Word Problems (And What We Should Be Doing Instead) webinar.
