We have had a big focus on mathematical literacy and Tier 3 vocab this year and have created a bank of key words and command words across all three key stages. The words have student friendly definitions, alongside an image of the 'word in action'. Will share link in comments

This is one of the best short articles I've read on P-values, CIs, and significance tests
Happy to share our new editorial for the @BJSM_BMJ on the interpretation of statistical estimates and P-values!

Loved the session delivered to teachers today by @RichardWh84 - lots to think about! Thank you 👏🏼
Great end to day one at DESS Dubai! Loved talking with students and working alongside middle leaders on creating the right conditions for students to embrace desirable difficulties. Tomorrow, I’ll be working with the wider staff and the study skills team, looking forward to it!

A brain dump of mathematical misconceptions.
Which of these might be avoided through careful teaching?

Between 2022 and 2025, I have the privilege of visiting 2 to 3 schools each week, observing over 100 lessons a month.
I have written up everything I learned in 16 books.

Are you aware of what your students are revising the night before the exam? I was browsing livestreams (as people seem to keep using my materials...) and found this one with 7000 viewers. A few things I saw including link to watch it yourself below...

This article by @mrbartonmaths Makes an excellent read for all HoDs as they review curriculum for next year. Should all maths teachers in a department teach the same methods? eedi.substack.com/p/should-a…

What are people's thoughts on curriculum booklets in Maths?
Really keen to hear any thoughts or advice!
We currently have them for KS5 and we're exploring the idea of them in KS4.

Created this resource to help my Year 11s with their approach to the last question of a Higher paper. Idea is from goalfreeproblems.blogspot.co… , worked answers and videos from mathsgenie.co.uk/papers.php. Made each question a goal free problem: dropbox.com/scl/fo/73vd8srx5… @mathsjem

What mathematical enrichment opportunities (ran internally or something you take part in externally) are available for your KS3 students, aside from UKMT? Would love to hear from schools in the UK and internationally.

Brilliant podcast from @Mr_Raichura & @Doug_Lemov, reflecting on explicit instruction and the importance of student rehearsal. I’m hoping someday Pritesh will collect all his wisdom into a book - I’d be the first to pre-order! open.spotify.com/episode/68k…
Hope some people find it useful!
