It's about giving students confidence

We are not saying goodbye, just, no more podcasts for now!

In this ep Sammy chats to Ian from maths by Ian. Ian is an experienced FE maths teacher now working as an online private tutor supporting students from a range of backgrounds studying a range of qualifications in maths. You can connect with Ian at https://www.mathsbyian.co.uk/

We wanted to dive into how we manage behaviour in our FE maths and English classes and give some examples of how we got out of some tricky situations. Plus we share how if we talk expectations we change the narrative for students and staff sometimes.

Having met Steve @CoffeeTimeMaths as we recorded this episode I cannot tell you what an instant connection we had and this chat was honest and easeful.  Steve is a real star, sharing, freely, his ideas and resources for #FEmaths on his padlet. Over 73 lessons and 59 videos for you to check out! It's always a joy to see how others approach their #FEmaths resources and feel inspired! If you want to connect with Steve directly DM Sammy @WhatTheTrigMath for his email :)

Sammy @WhatTheTrigMath chats to Sheraz. Sheraz is an ESOL and FS maths teacher in FE. Sheraz shares his action research on mentoring and how by co creating experiences a more positive metnoring relationship can occur. "When it comes to TLA we usually talk at length and do some CPD, but actually the real TLA happens inside the classroom" It's a great listen! You can connect with Sheraz on Twitter!

We started off chatting about behaviour in our FE maths and English classes but we moved quickly onto some stonking starter or warm up activities from Hollie and then we talked about how we manage the eye roll!

Join @WhatTheTrigMath as she chats to Bobby about curriculum in FE. Bobby shares her experiences in adult education and practitioner research on how to move away from teaching to the test that we may have fallen into. Bobby asks, what are we doing with adult learners? We have Biesta and more in here, a real head scratcher with all the questions! If you want to know more and connect with Bobby DM Sammy and we can connect you!

We chat in this episode about how we handle those students who were, just one mark away. How do we stream with the wide range of abilities in our FE maths and English FE classes?

Join Hollie and Sammy as we chat initial assessments, why do we do them and what makes a good one? We would love to have you on the podcast to share your thoughts, send a message and we can make that happen!

Welcome to another episode on the E & M Booth. Today Sammy @WHatTheTrigMath talks to Maria. Maria shares her amazing approach to bringing 3D objects to life in augmented reality with her students to support mathematical thinking. If you want to know more message us on here or Sammy via Twitter to connect with Maria.
