FRED's Teaching Reading for primary reading resources!
Schools where students can walk in and out of lessons as and when they like, routinely argue with teachers, dispute basic instructions, swear, shout across rooms and in corridors, roam around in gangs AND where teachers are still scrutinised to hell and back...

Recently my department have really focused on improving reading fluency and comprehension (also a whole school focus). It was great to receive some positive feedback on this in a recent Ofsted deep-dive. Here are some strategies we have been using - THREAD:
Yo wtf...just saw a stat that said only 30-50% of people have an internal dialogue. There's really 50%+ of the population out here walking around with NOTHING going on in their head?? Everything is starting to make much more sense
@profprofMFL @tweeds44@richnfamous76 @Strickomaster Could you give an example of what that might look like and how it would help the child to heal. Let's say a child bit and punched a staff member. What positive consequence would you suggest is appropriate for the child to receive?
The message of this book, of kindness and sharing, is an important one. It crops up often but is delivered here in a new and engaging way! The tips for creating a better world and spreading kindness that are delivered across the last 2 spreads are a particular highlight! 5stars!
They also really enjoyed the illustrations, with T particularly engaged by the spread were everyone has the same face! He couldn't fathom a world that could look like this! 😂 L, on the other hand, was very interested in a world where everybody spoke in robot voice! 🤖
