Otti CrozeTeaching a new applied maths/physics course and using handwritten solutions to problem sets from previous years that haven't been typeset in LaTeX. Mathpix is an absolute godsend. It's uncanny how good it is at recognising handwritten mathematics and the words in between. It misidentifies a few words and symbols, but it's easy to fix that. Would have taken ages to typeset all the solutions myself! #mathpix #LaTeX #teachingmaths #teachingphysics
Karen3rd year of being a nomadic teacher next year. I'm in 12 different classrooms over the week. After ideas to cut down what I lug around all day.
reMarkable had solved my paper problem.
But I carry a visualizer, 24 board pens for mini whiteboards, 3 calculators, laptop plus charging cable, graphics tablet, HDMI cable, and then any work for the lessons I'm teaching before I can next visit the Maths office. (We're split site and I only teach in the Maths block about 50% of the time.)
Jacket pockets hold my board pen, fountain pen, pencil, ruler and headphones.

Collecting like terms:
This year I've started using the approach shown below.
Because it reminds me of the top of a castle (crenellations) I call it "crenellating". 😉

@CharlotteHawthorne The longer I tach for the more I move away from autonomy. Perhaps because when you have too much it's exhausting.
I'd be so happy for someone else to write a unit I could teach from. 😁

Charlotte HawthornePosting on here definitely feels different and more like posting into the void...but I kind of like it. It's freeing not worrying about a post getting likes (favourites) or replies and just saying what I feel.
Today I've been thinking about autonomy in planning maths lessons. Prompted by many things but brought to the forefront by Craig Barton's blog this morning (Link below)
I'm trying to mentally wrestle with the idea that I have, in the past, disliked being told how to teach if it's too prescriptive...I hated the thought of some structures I'd seen in other schools such as compulsory 10 minute retrieval where the questions were pre-prepared by someone else.
But I also find myself wanting to dictate methods, approaches and sometimes even a whole series of lessons.
But the crucial thing here is that I think I was scarred by some particularly bad ideas. Whole-school T&L policies which were driven by subjects very different to maths. Perhaps this made me resistant to being told to do something.
Now that we know better (I hope), are there aspects that could be much more prescribed?
And could there potentially be more creativity that comes from this? If we give teachers time back with the basics of lessons planned will there be more time for tweaking/adapting/thinking creatively about how to improve things?
