Come and work with me in a brilliant authority, and as part of an amazing wider team of really supportive people who are also partial to coffee and cake and good chat!

Great final 2 days at the @MathsRecoveryUK Developing Number Knowledge with 7-11 year olds. Really valuable learning, with lots to consider and take forward 🙌🏼

Using Bar Modelling as a strategy for division at @CarlibarPS. Learners created qs w/dominoes, dice & raffle tix, chose size of dividend & whether to use Dienes based on confidence using the strategy - self evaluation, learner generated qs & widening knowledge of strategies 🙌🏼

Bar modelling with numberless word problems and an @openmiddle task that a learner had a creative solution for, enabling us to explore negative number addition with @CarlibarPS. Fab work 🙌🏼

Place value with ten frames, counting using temporal patterns, Splat!, and a pesky bag that kept throwing out counters for subtraction with screens were all in a day’s work for some pupils at @ThornliebankPS
