An👌🏾example of functional maths, seen and experienced as I refereed at a Boccia tournament yesterday.
* Angles
* Counting (Subitising)
* Estimation
* Measurement
* Probability and strategy
* Scoring
* Spatial reasoning
Even wore my measuring tape earrings for good measure 🤣.

Tried to use the idea of pattern spotting to connect to the number bonds to 8 in #MathsToday.
I didn’t anticipate the length of time it took for my student to connect with it. More exposure on pattern spotting and noticing is needed for sure.

Interesting discussions in #MathsToday using Hungarian frames and the recognition of 5.
Counters, fingers, number sentences coupled with visualisation strategy supported to build the connections.
✅ Hands on manipulation

S: It’s obvious. If you had a ruler and you enlarged it, the 90° won’t become larger, it will still stay as 90°.
Love it when a student uses a relational example to convince me!

In #MathsToday, student checking if the dot pattern on the die 🎲 does represent the number 6️⃣.
Initially my student looked at the dot pattern and said no, that’s not 6.
After checking it was great to explore other dot patterns within the 6 dots through the hiding strategy. 💪🏽 #Visualisation

Me: Can you convert 4 1/4 into a decimal number?
S: I think so.
4 1/4 = 1.25
Me: Why is it 1.25?
S: Because 1/4 is 25/100 and so the 1 must be the whole.
