Today is the first day of @amiemathematics.bsky.social It’s exciting to see what the future might bring…

Opinions welcome!

I agree with @honeypisquared.bsky.social and @darrenmacey.bsky.social that there’s a lot to like in this book, but this image for multiplication of mixed numbers made me itch *so* much!

I’ve said it before - this programme from @ncetm.bsky.social is one of the best PD programmes I’ve been involved with (and I’ve been around for years!) It sounds ridiculous to say that applications for 2026 will open soon Have a read and register you interest. www.ncetm.org.uk/features/bui...

Interesting - about teacher learning… www.tes.com/magazine/tea...

One way of thinking of a division A÷B is to find a way to change B to 1. In the case of 21÷3, say, we get 21/3 ÷ 3/3 = 7÷1 = 7; in the case of 3/4 ÷ 1/4 we get 3/4 * 4 ÷ 1/4 * 4 = 3÷1 = 3. Put another way, If 3 shares are 21, what is 1 share? If 1/4 share is 3/4, what is 1 share? [Useful?? Dunno!]

One quarter of a number is three quarters. Two quarters of a number is six quarters. Three quarters of a number is nine quarters. Four quarters of a number is twelve quarters.

The follow up in my head was what is one quarter, three quarters of, and I actually love this answer and the generalisation that ensues

I draw all my cartoons to order, they're not prints. www.worldofmoose.com/products/bal...

Maybe a better way to ask is: One-quarter of a number is three-quarters. What’s the number?

“What is three-quarters, one-quarter of?” My thinking to get to an answer was way more convoluted than it needed to be!

… So, with maths particularly, if there was a way to pick the most important bits, and just do those, a student may get a 4/5 whereas when doing more they get a 3 because no time to consolidate. So a half at 5 may be more valuable than full at 3.

I’m about 1/4 of the way through and big recommend for this by @georginasturge.bsky.social Stats has never been my favourite thing, but this is properly interesting.

GCSE Maths distributions by board and age (16 and 17+). AQA’s entry has a larger proprtion of resits than Pearson. OCR and Eduqas don’t report age data so are lumped together, but Eduqas’ grade distribution suggests most of their entry is 17+. OCR tend to have a larger F entry.

Ada Lovelace Day is on Tuesday 14 October this year, which might seem like a long way away, but if you’re organising an indie event, it’s practically right round the corner. So why not start thinking about what you're doing to do for ALD and get organising!
