You become more aware of your vulnerability and mortality I think in your 40s, when your body starts to show signs of aging, a privilege not given to all. Seeing your parents becoming elderly is a wake up call. Those who for me were always my strength and protection, needing my support themselves.

Ooh that’s an interesting idea. I cannot imagine teaching as a job if you didn’t adore children, I mean go and find something easier that pays better and doesn’t take over your life! 😆

Interesting read. I really don’t like the twee handshake but absolutely check ins with every child is so important. Setting seems to determine what is achievable-SEND school with high adult ratios a therapeutic approach, firm boundaries and restorative conversations are impactful

It’s absolutely brilliant, sequel is out on 12th Sept 🙌🏼. I’ve been reading TJ Klune’s Wolfsong series, it’s fabulous

So sorry for your loss x

I have a SEND KS3/4 class

Same trying to take a photo of my black dog this morning, she had such a peaceful face but no features in the photo

This, on Xwitter would result in divisive debate, but I’m really interested what others think on here where there is a positive approach. I teach in a SEND school that has a therapeutic approach to behaviour and generally it’s very successful. Love to hear thoughts

Gorgeous colour, so cosy and inviting!

Thank you. I’m interested to see the other responses, and maybe pick up some good tips! x

Wonderful, thank you for he recommendation!

My ECT2 year, so I will try and focus on work/life balance, try to finish by 4:30 twice a week

Any recommendations for Victorian topic books, I have flexibility with my curriculum in my SEND school. Have bought The Great Stink but always looking for book recommendations. Thanks!

Have just finished rewriting the overview for a weekly picturebook assembly which focuses on equality, diversity and inclusion. It's still a work in progress but please feel free to use and adapt. All shares appreciated! The link is on my Padlet: padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

That’s the one! Lucky to be on the Dorset coast now 😊

Stunning!

I grew up down the road in Melton Mowbray

Know what you mean! It’s really powerful stuff

He’s amazing and the whole show is amazing. I think Fred is learning as much from the boys. Wonderful to see how they’re all supporting each other 😭

Can I get a like, share or follow if you agree that:

KINDNESS & COMPASSION should be priorities for school curriculum moving forward after the events of this summer!

This is the best argument against using AI so far 😂

An Alien in the Jam Factory trilogy is a fun read,

Yes!

I love Papier spiral academic diaries. Not the cheapest but feel special and most importantly for me (not sure why) a vertical design in their week to view pages.

Whenever I’ve tried to use it for lesson ideas or resources, it has produced very dry and dull material. Maybe with having a small class of complex learners who I need to engage quite creatively, I’ve just not discovered what it can do yet.

Hello!

Hello! 👋🏼 Would love to link with SEND and primary teachers but love to learn from everyone!
