trying to think about linking topics together in teaching Maths, for example, in a 1.5 hour lesson, I would link nth term and sequences to linear equations to aid retention. What other topic links have you done in your lessons that help learners? #mathscpdchat
A problem solver from a FS Maths L2 paper Where would you begin in teaching learners how to approach in FE? Would the maths skills or the problem solving skills take precedence in your delivery? #Maths #femaths

Ideas for English? Love this!
EBI stickers: Each sheet is AO1, AO2 & AO3. Students get individual #feedback & I get whole class feedback for which AO needs focus (as well as catching individual concerns). Such a visual process! AO3 is our focus - last year this was ALL the students wrote about. #TeamEnglish
Speaking to parents, there seems to be a need for "study skills" or skills for students to learn about learning? Some are asking for private tutoring for this exact reason. Is there contemporary research of the effectiveness of such intervention? Would be great to know!
I’ve been thinking a lot about how I have delivered Functional Skills Maths courses now, focused a lot more on problem solving approaches and finding great success with spending more time on problem solving technique than maths content. Have a read here: math.berkeley.edu/~gmelvin/p…
An extraordinary story to hear/read from David Goggins. Thoroughly enjoying this audiobook during my easter break. Defy all the odds. #canthurtme

Today is a good day. It’s easier to be a parent this morning. Character MATTERS. Being a good person MATTERS. This is a big deal. It’s easy to do it the cheap way and get away with stuff — but it comes back around. Today is a good day. #PresidentBiden #VotersDecided
