Reading multiple scales/volumes/capacities in maths

Last week, I posted a video exploring how to use Seesaw to capture evidence for moderation. In this video, I wanted to share how you can use Shadow Puppets Edu to evidence pupil's understanding of reading scales. This can be done on Seesaw, however, you will see that with Shadow Puppets you can add multiple worksheets and questions and save as one video.

Encouraging pupils to independently evidence learning for Moderation

Continuing our work with measurement in Maths, here is another activity we did recently which challenged to solve a problem in maths but document the process by recording videos explaining how they solved the problem. This idea can be easily adapted to any problem solving challenges.

A step-by-step guide to learning by questions

Last week, I posted a video about accessing thousands of questions through Learning by Questions for free. If you sign up for a free account, you also get a 60 day trial of the paid features which I explore in this video. It costs £200 a year (I think) but as you can see from this video, if used effectively, is well worth the money.
LBQ have also given me 200 £25 vouchers to use to buy books of their questions sets for each year group, more info here.
