Maths Teacher Circles Virtual Sessions 2022
Each practical and interactive session is 2.5 hours, during which time we will dive into thought-provoking and accessible maths problems and discuss their implications for classroom practice.
Sessions feature an exciting range of presenters and opportunities to connect with others in a welcoming environment.
Join like-minded teachers, mathematicians and other maths lovers.
- Do you enjoy doing and being challenged by maths?
- Are you after strategies and recommended resources to help students become better problem solvers?
- Do you want dedicated time to focus and reflect on your teaching practice?
- Are you keen to build meaningful connections and join a like-minded community?
Then Maths Teacher Circles are for you! We look forward to seeing you soon.
