Has anyone done a theme week at school for sustainability? Looking for ideas for how to run the week in June.

Golden Silence There's something magical about a silent classroom. Students are focused, heads are down, pens are busily scratching away. Participation Ratio is high, and you can almost feel the learning in the room...

Brilliant. Thanks for the swift reply. How can I track when it is released? Guess it’ll be on your profile? Hope the talk went well.

We are a junior school and having a whole school focus on handwriting this year following comments from our recent Ofsted. Will you be writing a blog on this or is there a way I could access your research? Sounds right up our street.

Six years ago, literally nobody asked me what my advice would be for new teachers starting in September.

So I told them.

And now, years later, still nobody has asked me.

So here it is again

Read this last year. Really clearly explained with so many examples. Helped me so much, especially with how to use manipulatives to teach dividing/multiplying fractions and algebra. Children found it helped their fluency before moving onto reasoning.

Always enjoy your podcast. A great listen as we all gear up for next week - although the laptop still hasn’t been opened yet….

Started this yesterday on the beanbag in the garden. I do WW2 in history for the autumn. Half way through and very good so far with lots of different themes.

Going with β€œThe Machine gunners” as doing WW2 in history. The children voted for it on transition day.
