For Maths Teachers:
When collecting & correcting homework, don't mark each question.
Instead write, "Two of these answers are wrong. Find them and fix them!"
Next day, start with 10 minutes of group work in which students peer assess to find and solve mistakes!

The Glencoe Maths Manipulatives site has returned online after a period offline. In case it goes offline again, I would appreciate if anyone could download a copy that would work offline #edchatiehttps://t.co/tueqPxUpU9
The Flipped Staffroom - Instructional videos for staff. Schools create a library of staff made videos (screencasts) showing how to use the key features of their schools digital technologies. MS365/G Suite/VsWare/etc. Simple & practical.

And for maths: #edchatie estimate the number of Santa Clauses required for Delivery. Google the top speed of Reindeer, Calculate the number of deliveries, and mean distance between good children. Dont forget the the international dateline for time available.

If Ss truly understand number relationships and operations on a number line, they can solve simultaneous equations at any grade. Inspired by an article on mastery posted by @Simon_Gregg

I know what you mean - it would be great if all research was done in an open and accessible way for all.
However, I have made overly good use of it in the last couple of years
