Really looking forward to this. So many good sessions too!
📣Another #MathsConf38 workshop announcement! 🎼(Some of) the maths behind music harmony This one will be run by @DRoseMaths 🎶 What does music have to do with maths? Quite a lot, actually. From frequency ratios to harmonic patterns, this session reveals how mathematical structures underpin the sounds we find most pleasing. 🎷Whether you’re a music lover, maths enthusiast, or educator looking for creative cross-curricular links, this workshop offers a fresh perspective on both subjects. ✨Maths isn’t just logical – it can be beautiful too. Don’t miss it! Learn more and book your tickets here: completemaths.com/community/… #MathsConf38 #MathsCPDchat #MusicInMaths #STEM

Great session @Mannermatics . I'm thinking lots about how I support problem solving. Today was pitched perfect and timely. Full of useful insights.

When you attend a maths conference but get to see speakers named Ben Sparks (@SparksMaths) and Tom Rainbow (@CoreMathsTom). Going to convince my friends it was actually an obscure Rock festival 👍

This year I have taught calculating a utility bill. We worked out tax and NI deductions for a job in their vocational area. Good engagement so worth while. Will they ever calculate their utility cost to the unit or their net pay in their lives? Probably not. It's done for them.
I never know why it’s always maths that gets the bad rap here. What about “do we need to learn Shakespeare? Wouldn’t it be more useful to learn how tax or budgeting works?” Because numbers, I suppose

Was it worth covering then? Well I've empowered them to be able to check their payslips and utility bills, ensure they're not ripped off. I've also empowered them to approximate the angle needed when leaning a ladder against a wall. Possibly avoiding harm. Was it worth covering?

What percentage of the logo (in this badly taken photo) is coloured circles? Bonus points if you know where it is the logo for? More bonus points if you know the significance of the placement of the circles.

Sharing CPD I delivered this week. Formative Structures to Promote Creativity. "Introducing " the structures and then the team create their own parameters. Creativity comes as students are generating their own ideas, but any of the structures can be utilised with most topics 1/🧵

Finished off with MoreSameLess. Not much to add to this other than discussions around how you can really draw attention to variation, like in sequences. And that my colleagues really showed the higher ceiling of this one in their designs! Must collect them when I get the chance.

Takeaways were- it's nice to be doing maths with others! But also just some simple templates that, with a bit of thought, get a lot of legs out of the students in terms of generating ideas (creativity) and also time having them really thinking about the maths.
