Reading this in preparation for Helen Peters’ visit to us in September. It’s brilliant and I can’t wait to share it with our pupils. Her Jasmine Green series will appeal to our younger pupils too. They all LOVE an author visit 🤩

I don’t ‘love’ maths but I do love discovering new ways of teaching tricky concepts. Method A will make long division so much easier for lots of my pupils 👌
Long division...Method A or Method B?

Or a different method altogether...please share your working.

What a fantastic book this is…instantly engaging and focused on the important stuff…how leaders can make their schools and everyone within them (pupils and teachers) thrive👌
I know it’s one I’ll come back to time and time again.

100% 👌
Saw this shared by Micheal Chiles on X - going to try to remember all this next academic year. Especially progress not perfection

Love my new B5 notebook from The Positive Teacher Company. Didn’t need it, wasn’t going to get one, but I love this design so much - probably my favourite of theirs so far. The size is 👌too.

Working my way through Kristin Hannah’s books this summer. Not sure why I haven’t read any of hers before…
I loved The Great Alone, The Women and The Nightingale. Halfway through The Winter Garden which hasn’t captivated me like the others but I’m invested. She’s a wonderful storyteller 👌
