Love the Gilded Age but must have said ‘Oh Gladys’ 10 times this evening
Bookish might be my favourite mystery detective series. @bobdigby.bsky.social I think you might like this one
Cant wait for the next series of Outlander 😂
Yes!! Actually managed to get tickets to see the Cursed Child with Tom Felton starring
These are incredible!
Today is National Biscuit Day, and it’s about time that I populated this account with biscuit (cookie) sets from the past few years. Here are some of my favourites. 🧵

First up, a set inspired by the delicious designs of William Morris and John Henry Dearle.
We loved that book in our household!
There are 10 days left before UK teachers can quit their jobs. Anyone in the UK thinking about moving international? #geographyteacher
This one loves getting stronger each week
Can we really decolonise geography if we don’t start with decolonising languages in our classroom? Asked that question today on LinkedIn and would love to hear how you’re supporting your multilanguage learners.
Thanks Shane. Really enjoying my translanguaging journey as I work through my Masters.
Proud of myself for creating a fully resourced map skills unit for yr 7 which fully incorporates translanguaging opportunities throughout - inc. an and of topic test. #geographyteaxher #EAL

Llamas on fieldwork today
Heading out of Lima to measure a river for fieldwork
My daughter has a new PYP unit coming up investigating how humans impact local environment. Together we designed her first survey123, went & investigated the park & she wrote her first StoryMap! Not bad for a kid just turned 7.

I thought your article was brilliant and raw.
Go to the theatre on the day you want to see something I had the best seats to see Sarah Jessica Parker and Matthew Broderick for $99
Great lesson today using translanguaging. Statements given to students. Worked in silence for 10 minutes as they translated to English, drew an image to rep statement & then put together as group cartoon. This lesson introduced our assessment for Türkiye earthquake #geographyteacher #EAL
Lovely nighttime sunsets!
Decoding is an important skill for bilingual learners. It also makes me think - who are the notes for? How are you decoding as part of translanguaging in your lessons? #geographyteacher #EAL #bilingual #multilingual
I can’t even spell this morning 😂 did you try the tool? Also if you’re into bread making you should try focaccia - there’s a lovely cinnamon roll style bread recipe going around.
Unless you live in the southern hemisphere as a teacher and then March is the struggle
