Writing as tree decorations using @OliverJeffers @DrewDaywalt Crayons’ Christmas as inspiration. Thanks for the idea and wonderful examples @justdawned 🎄The children loved it!

@MrEagletonIan I can't wait to use your wonderful book! The endsheets remind me of Farmer Duck as the world changes dramatically from the beginning to the end of the story. Brilliant for discussion! @MrGs2020 @ryana1001 @teacher_books @MoonMaddy @galwaymr @Becky_Swain

Trialling a ‘reading journal’ instead of the standard reading record to make it more enjoyable & independent for my class. Have a list of activities & ask them to complete at least one for each book they read, and just to keep track of when they read then the rest is up to them!

I don’t look at teachers planning, I haven’t looked at teachers planning in years. We don’t have a format. I have medium and long term plans. If I want to know what’s going on I’ll talk to the teacher and have a proper conversation about the work. Planning is for the teacher
Sub 1:40🙌 Very pleased with that! 🏃

If I could do one thing about school budgets that would make a difference to pupils it would be to introduce a ring fenced “Reading” premium. Teachers should not have to buy books out of their own pocket to stock a class library, there should always be money to buy books.

Our whole school have loved using the beautiful text, The Invisible, by @TomPercivalsays and today Y6 wrote him a letter. They have loved the book and wanted to say a big thank you 😊
