If it's helpful to schools and teachers, below is the link to a year's worth of picturebook assembly suggestions that have a focus on empathy, diversity, equality and inclusion. They're all books I've used and loved. #edusky padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

Making a starter pack for authors who do school visits, so schools can easily find us. This starts off one for primary schools go.bsky.app/5u2ArqX but I'll also do one for secondary. Let me know if you do school visits and you want to go on the list - and whether you do primary or secondary. Thanks.

There's a second copy of my Little Guide for Teachers to using Student Data to give away - I'll also randomly pick someone who reposts either this or the embedded post by 9am next Friday (30/8/24) 😏

2. Ideas for artwork or quotes! I’d love to hear what works in your workspace or see examples that you have. Our vibe is aiming for calm, uplifting and inspiring. Easy peasy! 😊🙏

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!

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...

I also love scrapbooking- but tend to make them as gifts. This one was for my mum’s 80th birthday.

Good morning #EduSky
First time posting so not sure if it will land anywhere, but here goes!
We have a new calm and spacious staffroom where I’ve taken on two tasks. 1. Sourcing a starter bank of accessible CPD reading. Not all our staff have ventured down this route yet-so recommendations please?🙏

Wow! I’ve forwarded to our senco- it looks like an incredible trove! She’ll be thrilled. Thank you so much for sharing 💛

Just looked at the overview so far - I’m such a grammar nerd, I love it! Seems clear and simple - Teaching simplified, learning amplified! 😉
