What do teachers think?
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your website. It is such a great resource and a great help to a not-very-maths confident subject leader. I keep discovering amazing and super helpful gems and wanted to say thank you! Maths Subject Leader, North London I used Broadbent Maths at my previous school. I now have a headship and subscribed to your site (of course!) Headteacher, Northumberland
Creative teaching using graph stories
Graph stories are an engaging and open-ended way to explore continuous line graphs. As you know if you have heard me talk about maths planning, I feel that statistics and data handling in the primary curriculum are tools or forms of communication that can be used to support teaching and learning in all the other maths topics.
Primary maths Christmas activities
Christmas maths activities for primary teachers to try with your class - a stocking full of ideas that provide children with valuable opportunities for maths learning and some Christmas festive fun. Choose from challenges that can be returned to over a few days or quick 10 minute fillers.
Making sense of equivalent fractions
Being able to recognise and manipulate equivalent fractions is a key concept when working with fractions and an essential step towards ordering and calculating with fractions successfully. I find that children use models and images well to represent equivalent fractions, particularly with fraction bars. However, from observing lessons, the biggest issue seems to be a weak basic understanding of the numerator and the denominator and a lack of fluency when it comes to equivalence and proportionality.
Mathematical language - using a maths dictionary
A key part of representing mathematical ideas, concepts or procedures so that it makes sense for children is about getting the language right. As teachers we each have (hopefully similar) ideas of what we mean by, say, 'product', 'divide' or 'angle' but it is not always easy to explain these to children. Using models, pictures and diagrams helps immensely, but so does accurate mathematical language. I have always had a maths dictionary at hand to help so I would suggest making use of one yourself.
