Just seen this now, will have a good read and post thoughts

Been thinking more about addition. Plus in Latin means 'more' or 'greater in amount'. Also, from Old French surplus (sur = “over” + plus = “more”). So the first encounter of addition as an idea, both for children and humanity is 'counting on' which you mentioned in your post.

Ah, thanks I see. This sounds great and I will sign up to it. I can still keep publishing on wordpress on my site but this will give me an academic format to discuss.

Thanks😊 Writing makes me think about the whole day again more deeply. It is yet another shot of CPD, the conference that keeps on giving!

This is soooo good and smart!

One of the busiest MathsConfs I’ve ever attended!

I would have gone to your session too Debs and Pete's session. Too many good sessions to choose from! I have Tom's book too and it is a great well illustrated read.
