In lieu of grade boundaries, I showed them these histograms, of previous students grouped by the grade they ended up with. Took a bit of explaining, but I hope it helped them see what they were on track for, without me having to give them an explicit grade. #MathsToday

@mathforge.org has done what I’ve never been organised enough to do myself, and catalogued every #geometrypuzzle I’ve ever posted on social media. It looks amazing!

…and of course a massive thanks to everyone who delivered a session or who I chatted maths (and not maths) with today at MathsConf. Without you it wouldn’t have been anywhere near as enjoyable or thought provoking.

Having told @teakayb.mathsy.space that people would definitely want to come to his session, I really had to choose it for session 5! Loved hearing about the research Tom and Jason carried out about embedding history into maths lessons. I’m also looking forward to reading Tom’s book #MathsConf39

Thoroughly enjoyed solving problems in Rob Eastaway’s session. Important to remember that so much mathematical thinking can take place way before getting to a solution. #MathsConf39
