Hi
Thanks Ruth
Well then, the inmates are about to take over the asylum.

What you forced me to get off the shelves are some old MTs
MT 100 has Practical materials and practical work: Some reflections 
Alistair McIntosh.

But this article is the end of a run of earlier Mc Intosh ones
Some subtractions:what do you think you are doing in MT 83
and
Some children and some multiplications in MT 87.
Shortly after Alistair left for Australia with a young family - in disgust
about our lack of progress in moving Primary maths teaching on in the way
he hoped, or needed,  for his own kids.

If you dont have these articles I can scan them in and send them to you. 
They are too old to be on the net.

CAN is quite a source so long as you call it 'Cambridge research into
primary maths' and dont mention what CAN actually stands for!!

I parted with all that wonderful resource - blue books - APU on testing
10% of kids in practical maths at 11. Someone must still have it. Its a
wonderful mine.

You could also use Kath Hart chapter on number operations with some
results.  Or maybe that is too simple.

I am sure you know all this.

All strength to your elbow.
