One of the most important messages I took away was about 'teaching' reasoning. Within class I have been working really hard on the 'reasoning' agenda, particularly in maths, expecting the children to 'explain the maths'. What I have been focusing on though is the maths when this actually the children have not had much instruction on how to structure their reasons.
@carpenter_rob schools have produced these postcards for pupils, parents and teachers to help support the development of reasoning skills and next step questions. They are printed out on double sided postcards. The children use the speaking frames when answering questions, next steps and completing reasoning tasks in books.
Parent reasoning cards
Learning reflection cards
KS2 reflection/ reasoning cards
Maths reasoning cards
I have since found this great resource on Twinkl. To make them part of all maths lessons, I put all of the cards onto one sheet of A4 and have stuck them into the front cover of our maths books to support next step answers and reasoning tasks.
Other resources I love are:

Rob's blog http://www.robcarpenter.org.uk/ is well worth reading, there are many useful documents in the 'documents' section.
