Two old photos of me when I was 16/17 and a more recent photo of me wearing cardboard glasses.
40 years ago, when I got into Art College aged 16 my dad said to me, "One day lad, you'll have to get your hair cut and get a sensible job" . . . I did lose the long hair when I was in my late 20's, but as for the sensible job, I'm still looking. 😁👀

A cardboard version of Lowry's painting 'coming out of school'. Made by teams of children in Year 5 from Summerhill Academy. The children made every part of this from scratch, the building, the background, and all of the figures.
Here's the second project from this week, with yet another famous artwork as inspiration. The Year 5 children from Summerhill created their own version of Lowry's 'Coming out of school'. I think Mr Lowry would've enjoyed watching them make this. 🙂👍

The 3D cardboard sunflowers created this week by the Year 5 children from Summerhill Academy, based on Vincent Van Gogh's famous painting.
A close-up of the vase, which the children decided to also decorate.
Year 5 at Summerhill Academy have been taking inspiration from some very famous artworks this week. Here's their take on Vincent's 'Sunflowers' . . . I loved their designs on the vase, I think he'd have liked them too. 🙂👍

And I'm Aaron. I help organisations to become better at inclusion (from Early years to apprenticeship providers).
I also teach one day a week: Days end with a singalong - surprisingly children love Kung Fu Fighting (released in 1974).

A large cardboard version of Van Gogh’s famous painting ‘Sunflowers’ build entirely by the children using recycled cardboard hard, paper straws and tissue. This will be painted but the photo shows it in its ‘raw’ state.
We’re taking inspiration from famous artists this week, and Yr 5 have really enjoyed creating their own homage to Van Gogh’s famous ‘Sunflowers’. This is a larger version of the project from my book Art Shaped. 😁👍

Graphic shows final paragraph of the school attendance guide for parents of a Sheffield Primary School. It reads: "Do you remember that, at the start of this guide, we said school days are: 1. A time for eyes to light up. 2. A time for wonder and discovery. 3. A time for dreams to run wild. 4. A time for friends who feel like family. Well… Who knows where great attendance will lead? Here’s one former pupil, Robin, collecting his first class master’s degree. That opened the door to one of Europe’s best universities where he conducts research that will underpin the medical imaging equipment of the future. If he and the team he works with can find the breakthroughs, it could lead to better radiation therapy in hospitals and so save millions of lives across the world. And it all starts with good attendance… See you at school tomorrow!" First image within the text show a foundation stage child with eyes lit up. Second image shows Robin collecting his Masters Degree.
When writing for parents, let's speak to the soul.

I'm laboriously moving my blog posts over to my new website.
Here's one I moved today. Soon I'll write that blog post on how EduCognitivism read studies on studying techniques and then remade lessons in their image.

A phonics display featuring the children's favourite frog 'Fred'. This was made by Year 1 children from Summerhill Academy in Tipton.
A close up of Fred's head.
A group of 12 Fred head models showing the different phonics sounds that the children are learning and using.
So, here's Fred Frog! 😮😁 The 100 Year 1 kids from Summerhill Academy have had a lot of fun creating one of their heroes. He's giving us a special phonics lesson along with Miss Hermon (who I was asked to conjure up) 😆

I'm not sure yet. I think they probably do but the common one is EduSky and that has a lot of US content.
I'm wondering if #UKEd might be the best horse to back, but really open to ideas.
Mary's posts teem with the magic of learning for our youngest school children.
If you don't follow her already, you are missing out on lots of joy.

Great teaching is a complex act that requires a balance of cognitive precision, high expectations, and effective emotional support.
This is why the Science of Learning is the “Golden Thread” of the Great Teaching Toolkit (GTT), infused into every part of it.
