Hi. Just doing a little survey...... My HOD wants to share all classes between two teachers. What is the general opinion on sharing Yr11 classes when they could be taken through with just one teacher?

Allow me to introduce you to a new app my team had just rolled out rather recently.
The passion behind it is to reach out to students in classrooms while overcoming the barrier of getting them engaged in learning a popular math topic, namely, fractions.
Check out the app which is now free and available on iPad. Any form of feedback will be appreciated!
I work with a nonprofit organization that is interesting in using technology to increase access and opportunities for students. Previously, we funded the development of a number of free, open textbooks available online.
Currently, we are working on a statistics course that will be available online for free. The goal is to help both teachers and students, utilizing sports as a vehicle for the delivery of interesting and relatable introductory stats topics.

Requiring students to show their work emphasizes doing math more than knowing math. That's one reason I changed from "you MUST show your work" to you "MAY show your work." Read my blog post for more on this, and share your thoughts.

I don't require that students show their work because it enrages some students but I like your approach better and I'll borrow it - 'you may show your work' is a great line.
Because sometimes it does make clear where the student is going wrong - or it can show that it's just a calculation error.
But I also Love the distinction you draw between knowing math and doing math - that's very high level thinking.
