Teaching how to consciously control the atmosphere in writing today using precise word choices and writing as a reader. When the word changes, how does the mood change? @janeconsidine @guruteaching @WritingRocks_17

I've said this before, but I'll say it again. READING FOR PLEASURE has the most powerful positive impact of any factor on children's life chances. So if you want to change their lives - make books & reading central to everything you do. And let them just enjoy it! #literacy

Thank you so much to the hugely inspiring @TeresaCremin for talking to @DriverTrust about reading for pleasure and how educators can ignite interest for children who find reading tough. It will be a very valuable part of our Primary Reading course. #Reading #SEND

Reading Order of the Phoenix to my daughter tonight… already read for ages, well past bedtime and still 80 pages left. “Mum you can’t leave it on a cliffhanger.” J.K. Rowling is an expert storycrafter… the final 100 pages of that book are one constant cliffhanger!
