We are doing our bit for 67 (word of year by dictionary.com) and it is going signed into school end of year magazine. It has made teaching 6 and 7 so much easier, so I am grateful

One of my dream fountain pens is currently on sale and I've read that they're going to be bumped up in price next year and I am so tempted to buy it but it's also much more expensive than any other pen I own... Truly a ridiculously nerdy program to have. 🖋️

It may be a first world problem, but good stationery or quirky stationery brings me such deep profound joy.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 ok I actually got this

My 2s for labelling debate...

Get your/your child's needs met without a label? Good luck. No chance. Even medically we have SWAN children.

Extra needs -> extra supports -> extra resources (including time)

Even for DSA you must have evidence.

Anti-labeling debate is rooted in privilege.

All prepositions all week. Cut rubik cubs in bags, clocks on time and chairs on the floor. Students exploring prior knowledge and where and when things are.

🟩🟩🟩🟩🟩 Well hello to Wednesday and hopefully some problems get sorted today

Score my Wordle (see attached) Pretty much confirmed what I knew that this was an easy problem by it's scoring.
My philosophy is that my brain is still working, ticking over and any line win is a win. Hope Melbournians are enjoying day off

It just goes to show the problem can be obvious, so sometimes just chilling, looking out the window can help, then suddenly options appear Wordle 1,599 6/6

Woodend is a delightful town and as a teacher I couldn't resist the urge to add it to my youtube under what else but prepositions (do I dream ideas for this, why yes I do)

Probable bear scat

Scratch marks possibly from a bear digging for grubs

One fun thing about talking to parks department staff is you can say, “could anybody identify this scat” and they all come over to you all excited. (Even better is when they confirm it’s a bear)
