I will not have spare energies at BCME to sort this out and I have no idea if anyone else will either. Sorry to sound a bit downbeat. I already have some takers for the few books I listed. I might put some more up and see what happens. Outlook was totally wonderful as a support to me - bu t that was 30 years ago and another age. I somehow feel chucking them all on a tip now is a comment on my teaching life over 40 years. Throwing away a bit of my soul. Likewise South Notts project though I suspect that the Shell Centre will still have copies. I also have films of Bob Davies teaching - transferred to DVD but I am really scared to put them up on youtube in case I get sued by some American. Maybe we run an extra session at BCME on looking at a Madison project film??? Guessing Functions or ?Increasing monatomic functions? with 13 year olds perhaps.

Yes, we have most of South Notts at the Shell Centre and copies of all our own materials. Some the favourites are at mathshell.com and at map.mathshell.org which contains the 100 formative assessment lessons for ages 11-16** and much else. Worth a look. Hope to see you for a word at BCME All the best Hugh ** over 7 million downloads so far, with independent US research evidence of substantial gains in both pupil progress and teacher development If you still have the SMP number books, I?d love them and am happy to pay the postage. > On 4 Mar 2018, at 10:35, Geoff Faux wrote: > > Hi John. > I will not have spare energies at BCME to sort this out and I have no idea if anyone else will either.
