This is still one of my favourite videos I have made. A presentation I did for @lasalleed.bsky.social in 2023. Using @mathspadjames.bsky.social Decimals Blocks app. Fractals in action. I love apps that enable users to zoom in and out and to appreciate scale and connections.

Working with some of our Y2 pupils this week on problem solving. Used some questions from the

How contentious will this one be? My favourite 100-square set up (this one doesn't go as far as 100, but you'll get the idea). #UKMathsChat #MathsToday #iTeachMath #EduSky

Although this is not a new @drfrostresource.bsky.social @drfrostlearning.bsky.social MathsPowerPoint, I have found it really useful when helping a Year 10 student to work through this topic in detail. More 'huge thanks' to the Dr Frost team🙏
