New maths game for the new week!
Maths Grid can be used as a multi-player game or a whole class warm-up and is a great way to build your students' maths vocab.
Enjoy!

If I could only equip new teachers with one piece of teaching knowledge, it would be the #ZPD #ZoneOfProximalDevelopment.
When students encounter that moment where they almost know... and can stretch just enough... it is a really miraculous moment.

This is a very good collection of maths games.
“Games put children in exactly the right frame of mind for learning difficult things. They don’t mind repeating certain facts or procedures over and over, if repetition is part of the game.” —Peggy Kaye denisegaskins.com/math-games #mtbos #iteachmath #homeschooling #homeschoolmath

Problem Solving with @jamestanton: "The true joy in mathematics, the true hook that compels mathematicians to devote their careers to the subject, comes from a sense of boundless wonder induced by the subject.” #mtbos #homeschooling #iteachmath denisegaskins.com/2022/08/17…
