This special edition of the Tips for Teachers podcast comes live from Manchester Piccadilly station following MathsConf30. Jo Morgan and I discuss our takeaways from the workshops we saw, including:

Jo:

1. Assess pre-requisites

2. Use a variety of techniques for differentiation

3. Plan a curriculum suitable for the group you’re teaching

4. Explore boundary examples to deepen understanding of a concept

5. Pay attention to how students write their answers (we need a reciprocal symbol!).

Craig:

1. Make sure students are good at units

2. Don't forget the old classics

3. Adapt off-the-shelf resources

4. Make use of the power of interweaving

5. Interweave out by using questions that all have the same underlying concept
