I found it really helpful to discuss the six facets of inclusion in groups based on our own lessons. It gave a context for the learning and I was inspired by other people’s lesson ideas! #SI104
"Engaging people at work is the #1 leadership challenge. Most engagement initiatives are aimed at providing external motivation to people. The truth is – extrinsic motivation doesn’t last long (if it motivates at all)." https://t.co/BFMrnwsEqR #sketchnote#leadership (Reprise)
A wonderful reaction @robdelaney@CBeebiesHQ Bedtime Story using Makaton.
Mum Laura McCartney says her son Tom, who has complex medical needs, was "enthralled" to see a story told "in his language".❤️

The same way. That was equal, therefore it was fair.” But in reality, it wasn’t. Some children may have needed the question to be asked in a different way, some may have needed to answer in a different way to access the learning. Source: google images #SI104
1/1 I found this image a simple but powerful way of showing the difference between equity and equality. It made me reflect on why equity is what we’re looking for in the classroom.. You could say “I asked the same question in the same way to all the students. Each could answer in
I think doing a workshop as we did in week 6 is a great way to develop skills rather instead of expanding our knowledge like we normally do. It was a hands on way of learning how to self assess. #SI104

1/2found it really interesting that Joe focused on the emotional aspect of change - that really is what makes it not so straight forward. In any aspect of life, change is scary. We all know it, and we must remember that when we are trying to implement change in the.. #SI401
This reminded me of when Fiona was talking about the schools in which her model of peer-tutoring really took off with regard to the relationship between principals, teachers and SETs- when they all worked together, it was a success. #SI401
I found this quote on pinterest and it really stuck out to me - being a leader is not about being in charge, it's about being a strong, positive influence on others. I think this is particularly true in a teacher/pupil relationship #si401
