@collearn.bsky.social's fabulous website is a place to go when you need collaborative, curriculum-orientated resources, blog, links and research. The art bingo and the polar bear gap fill are just the two activities which are always popular with my students.

You know those books you get for kids about different countries or continents? Anyone know of a decent one on Afghanistan that isn't just about war, but more culture and geography? Please share to help find someone who can help!
