I took a driverless taxi to my hotel in Phoenix, AZ today 😳😵‍💫

There have been some wonderful illustrations of the Learning Pit since I created the concept ≈ 20yrs ago. If you have one you’d like to share, please tag me so that I can repost. In the meantime, here are some of my faves … 1/

Thanks for that. 🙃 Since 90% of our audience are in WA and east coast Oz - and 100% are teachers - your suggested times won’t work either. So, best we just agree that there is no perfect!

Yea, I guess there is no perfect as soon as multiple time zones are thrown in 🤪

Delighted to have been invited to join this FABULOUS team on Wednesday for a FREE WEBINAR about challenge & persistence. Timed perfectly for Aussies 🇦🇺 & Kiwis 🇳🇿 but all are welcome! 🌍

Just back from my lunchtime walk. Not quite the views you’ve got - and certainly not the temperatures! Plus, my hounds weren’t impressed having to walk past the bovine patrol on the way back 😬

And yes - I DO love a coconut! 🥥🌴

OMG! Look at that view!! (& no, I do NOT mean what’s on your laptop screen!!) 🤩

Thanks so much for sharing. Really glad you made it safely to that little slice of heaven. Keep the photos flowing …

2/2 for example, my son - with ASD & ADHD - has never mentioned being distracted by displays. He mentions other people, sounds, events & even seating arrangements as causes of distraction but never displays. To him, they’re just there minding their own business 😂

Thanks for this, Kath. I agree wholeheartedly with your first point. I wonder, though, about the second point - are displays really that distracting? For sure, many are unnecessary, but has anyone said - I just can’t concentrate because of that busy display on the back wall? 🤷‍♂️ … 1/2

☺️ I will pass on your comments! I’m definitely not the creative mind behind them - I was just lucky to be teaching that class of P6/7s last week.

I’m delighted to be launching the TEACH BRILLIANTLY PROCESS in Scotland, England & Wales in 2025. It’s been working wonders in Scandinavia & Oz/NZ so high time I make the offer closer to home too.

Are you a fan of classroom displays?

Some contexts / countries I visit deliberately avoid them so as not to distract s’s (particularly those with ADHD), whereas for others, they’re a must. I like these #wonderwobbles designed to support philosophical thinking. #scottishborders #teaching

Hello 👋 to all my new connections - 100+ this weekend. Having given up on Dark-X & the like, it’s refreshing to have a new, happy space to start sharing again. I’ll start with these lovely displays (more to follow) #classroom #learningpit #scottishborders

Love this! Thanks Becky 😊

Being fully present rather than chronically absent - here’s my piece with Dennis Shirley for the 🇦🇺 literacy mag. @pasisahlberg.bsky.social @andreastringer.bsky.social @adrianodiprato.bsky.social @rluzmore.bsky.social

This was just posted on Dark-X so here it is on the lighter BlueSky too. 😊
