Honestly I think a lot of teachers on here would fail the first Teacher Standard. They clearly have low expectations of students, and low expectations of themselves. Spicy, but my opinion. achemicalorthodoxy.co.uk/202…

One of the beautiful resources in the old National Numeracy Strategy was the mathematical vocab booklet. It's still a thing of joy & you can download it here. Some things have shifted yr grps but as progression in mathematical vocab goes, it's still lovely dera.ioe.ac.uk/id/eprint/524…

I realise there's lots of great people who disagree with me on this but I really worry about the implications of outsourcing lesson planning. It's how I think about the content. It's ultimately what's made me a better teacher..

One of my favourite maths resources! Maths comprehensions on 12 different topics (such as mountains, rivers, etc.) which then challenge children to retrieve and use mathematical information from the text and graphs to answer questions. drive.google.com/file/d/1qI7… #edutwitter
