[Maths-Education] maths across the curriculum

[gfaux at toucansurf.com]

Eileen Pennington and I worked together developing some Dorothy Heaaathcote
type dramas in 1999.  We then published a series of 12 lessons in a book
(2000).  Some work in Cornwall was subsequently written up in MT.  I still
have lots of books.  Happy to send one out.  The idea of inteer subject
collaboration sort of died as an idea because of directions from Croydon. 
Maaybe now is the time to re-visit.

We had enormous fun working up the dramas in schools and it was wonderful
for me to work with a drama teacherr like Eileen over seeveral months.

I have been tangentially involved with a mathemataics department instigating
maths (rather than 'numeracy') across the curriculum in a large, split-site
secondary school in London. They've done some co-teaching projects with
colleagues from the geography, IT and drama departments. The maths teacher
who has been running the project asked me if I knew of anything written
about such work - particulalry evaluating its effects - or if I knew other
schools trying similar things.
I've pretty much drawn a blank - can any of you make some suggestions? I
think they might be quite interested in linking with another school doing
similar work.
Many thanks
Tamara
