New blog: A CPD book club is a fantastic way to get colleagues together and discuss best practice in the classroom. Setting one up was easier than I thought! Let us know if you have a CPD book club and how it is going @EnserMark @Zoeeborunner @teacherhead sagestage1.wixsite.com/sageo…

Why not link festivals this week in reflecting on the Hindu celebration of Diwali? Lighting oil lamp and tea lights yesterday whilst looking at beautiful Rangoli patterns to welcome goddess Lakshmi prompted an impromptu discussion on similarities to other faiths and traditions.
Reminded again about my wider reading collection of Stephen Pinker, Marianne Wolfe, Daniel Willingham and our staff CPD library; thanks @MaryMyatt for refreshing my thoughts through @MyattandCo films.

I agree. Seeing the value-added of a healthy lifestyle and the opportunities it affords for a fulfilling, and long-life truly shows us the value of delivering high quality experiences in PE & Outdoor Education. Looking forward to Huh Primary PE webinar in Nov :)
This was such a great session with @wearekickstart and @afPE_PE. Genuinely didn't really understand the life changing value of PE until this conversation.

Students need to know 20,000 words when they leave secondary. Beyond the most common 6,000 words, less frequently used words are more likely to be encountered through reading (@ThinkReadTweet) Here are five ways to weave reading into the curriculum by @teacherhead and me.

Book number 1 of 2022. 5 stars from me; if you teach A-Level Christianity or you want a book to inform a unit of work on the nativity or the characters within it, this is an essential read. goodreads.com/review/show/44…

Listening to Dean Khaled with @MaryMyatt @creativeHigg and with Simon Roach from AfPE this afternoon in a curriculum discussion about PE. This is great as we approach our write up for the AfPE Award which we aim to be validated in February 2023. Looking forward to the Primary PE.

Mondays episode of #becomingeducated features my chat with @adamboxer1 We discuss explanations, retrieval, ratio and many more ideas taken from his outstanding book 'Teaching Secondary Science'. It is way more than a book about science! amzn.to/3VPfQ1w

I am! The chance to breath and take in the day at leisure is a gift as you rightly point out. I recognise I am to embrace the environment because of my circumstances but non the less I didn't see anyone else doing so this morning!
