Just wanted to say a huge thank-you to everyone who interacted with my #LegoMaths#LegoMath posts during August. If you missed any, the full collection of prompts is available on my blog: https://alisonkiddle.co.uk/category/lego-maths/ If you use them in any way, or if they inspire you to do your own Lego Maths, I'd love to hear about it!
@goatsarah@lnr whenever this sort of thing comes up, my response is always that the useful thing about learning maths is not necessarily the content but learning how to solve a particular type of problem and think in a certain way. Unfortunately, the way maths is examined means the learning to think aspect is often sidelined in favour of learning to jump through hoops
