Hello in addition to welcome to my 34th gems post. This is where I portion 5 teaching ideas I've seen on Twitter. The summertime holidays are lastly here! Let's live honest though - although it's lovely to receive got the chance to residual in addition to play, the bulk of us practise a fair amount of schoolhouse go over summertime - creating resources, organising in addition to tidying, preparing for September, catching upwards on reading... Have y'all read all 34 of my gems posts? Now's a expert fourth dimension to start!

1. Magnitude
Standard Form is all virtually actually large numbers in addition to actually pocket-sized numbers. It's dainty to position the theme into context - I've written a few times virtually The beauty of the real very large in addition to the real very pocket-sized – Standard form' by @mhorley. Thanks too to the lovely @MissBLilley who shared this video which puts size into context - she used it to innovate Standard Form in addition to her students were amazed!



2. Prime Time
@MathedUp shared a dainty activity on prime number element decomposition. I actually similar this because it makes it thus clear that every position out is either prime number or composed of primes.
I beloved this prime clock from the vivid Minimal Math Concepts. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few tweeters were unhappy to regard the position out ane on it though!
Whilst on the dependent area of primes, banking concern gibe out this first-class primes in addition to factors puzzle from @LearningMaths:
@LearningMaths ever produces first-class resources. Here's unopen to other duet of examples:
Fractions starter by @LearningMaths
Number machines by @LearningMaths


3. Alphabet Lesson
In a Twitter give-and-take virtually origin lessons of the year, the ever creative @missradders shared an thought for a Maths Alphabet lesson. In this lesson, students come upwards up with the best tidings they tin transportation away for each letter. They ask to live able to tell y'all what it way - for event for the missive of the alphabet Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 they mightiness define add, angle, area, average, needlelike or adjacent... As Hannah says, "this is a expert approximate of prior knowledge/ability ... in addition to gives y'all fourth dimension to chat to them". What a lovely thought for a origin lesson with Year 7.

If y'all desire to accept this thought further, your class could blueprint in addition to create a maths alphabet poster similar the examples shown below.

4. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 Level Prompts
@dannytybrown has been busy developing a serial of pre-teaching prompts for Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 degree topics. These are designed to live given to students a few days earlier a theme is taught. They are intended to prompt course of educational activity give-and-take in addition to potentially cut back the variation inward prior cognition with students. Influenza A virus subtype H5N1 few examples are shown below. Do go along an optic on Danny's weblog squeaktime.com for to a greater extent than on this.
 5. Maths with Pizzazz
Thank y'all to @japleen_kaur1 for sharing a ready of resources I've never seen earlier - Maths with Pizzazz worksheets. Hundreds of topics are covered. Many of the activities involve practising skills in addition to using answers to go out riddles in addition to jokes. Here's a duet of extracts:
Extract from Page 211 - Algebra with Pizzazz!
Extract from Page 159 - Pre-Algebra with Pizzazz!
I could pass days looking through these resources! Thankfully there's an index. What I actually ask to practise is split upwards the PDFs into separate worksheets, labelled in addition to grouped past times topic. But that would accept weeks. Any volunteers?!
