💡Poetry, prose & penny dreadfuls. A wonderful way to end the afternoon, hearing how @ipatedu.bsky.social have created exciting writing opportunities using the Opening Doors strategies.
The OD team are feeling inspired!

📚❤️ Could there be a better end to the day than taking the "blue book" (i.e. everything you need to know about Opening Doors) to the @britishlibrary.bsky.social?

Fabulous - proving that there is a way of delivering an inspiring English curriculum and developing fundamental skills for writing.

What does Opening Doors look like in reception and Y1? Last week, I delivered an Opening Doors session exploring just this. It was lovely to get this feedback today ‘It was a fantastic meeting and left us all feeling excited about moving forward with opening doors with our younger children.’

Ooh! Looks good. I regularly use Grandad’s Secret Giant and The Bear and the Piano with my schools! @dc-litchfield.bsky.social

Excellent! Thanks Gary @natefeed.bsky.social
