SPIELBERG: When John Williams first played me his theme to “Jaws”, “I began to laugh .. He had a great sense of humor, I thought he was putting me on.”

Here is a blog of Picturebooks about loss. Some of these have been really useful in talking with children about a truly difficult subject. Giving them the space to express how they are feeling. There isn’t one way to feel. Will add more soon. PicturebookPage smithsmm.wordpress.com/2020/05/03/t...
Can’t wait to read this and have it in our school library. There will be two year groups who will be particularly keen!
Something is really bothering me with CPD. During my training in the 90s and for the first few yrs of my career, there was a sharp focus on understanding child development. This has all but disappeared from the CPD landscape.
Sadiq Khan has urged the Government to resist “siren voices” pushing for a landmark expansion of workers' rights to be watered down

So excited to read this!
Change in Paris air quality between 2007 and 2023 using visuals
Air pollution has dropped significantly in #Paris in the last 15 years. Mayor @annehidalgo.bsky.social’s leadership has traded car space for green space, safe bike space, kid space.. and traded pollution for people.
Good trade.

A brilliant book and definitely one that has stayed with me.
Let the Wild Rumpus start over here on @bsky.app ! 🌟 Maurice Sendak’s Where the Wild Things Are reminds us to embrace imagination, freedom, and a bit of mischief. Do you have favourite spreads from children's books? 🦁🐾 #WildRumpus #MauriceSendak #WhereTheWildThingsAre #PictureBooks #Imagination"
This is forward thinking and helping to support staff during a financially difficult time. I was surprised nearly 20 years ago at how poor maternity pay was and it hasn’t changed since then. Really great work from all involved in this and hopefully it will encourage others. @jonnyuttley.bsky.social
This is excellent on measuring reading fluency in primary from @fftedudatalab.bsky.social. It’s vital to understand typical reading progression & reliable tools to measure it.
A great read.
This was the video that finally made me come over to Bluesky…
