Have you heard of Jólabókaflóð? 📚
It's a cosy Icelandic tradition of gifting books on Christmas Eve and spending the evening reading. 😍
Visit your local bookshop for the perfect gift.
#ChooseBookshops 🎄
ALT The text says: Jólabókaflóð (Icelandic for “Christmas Book Flood” and pronounced yo-la-bok-a-flot) Icelanders have a beautiful tradition of gifting books to each other on Christmas Eve and spending the rest of the night reading. Ask your local bookseller to recommend some books for you to gift this Jólabókaflóð

Here’s 5 things I’ve learned about handwriting from writing the chapter.
🥉Handwriting isn’t prioritised that much in English schools anymore. While much of the work that is done in school is with paper and pen, as adults type day-to-day, handwriting’s not seen as important.
New book alert! 📢 Our researchED guide to Primary Literacy is out now and it's packed with evidence-based ideas to support literacy development in the primary classroom! Available from ow.ly/QGxA50TIzX6 and other major book retailers

I hope that the new national body with responsibility for school improvement in Wales will ensure that we continue to receive the level of high quality professional learning and support currently provided by @CSCJES.
Schools in other systems would pay a fortune for what we have.
