@beckycarlzon My kids love learning The Alexander Technique at their school. It benefits them enormously to be intentional about understanding and using their bodies.

@JoH_Ed_Sketch @mareewhiteley @beckycarlzon @catrplace @Diksha0605 Education for ‘thriving’ is coming up a lot both in Hannon’s book and in @GuyClaxton’s LPA.
What do people understand ‘thriving’ or ‘to thrive’ mean? We have just begun to unpick this in our book enquiry in Learning Pioneers with @beckycarlzon. Pls share your thoughts!

@beckycarlzon This book had me at

'education has to be about learning to thrive in a transforming world'.

Just magic.

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

Learning from our mistakes? An integral part of our role-modelling for our students and an access-point to meta-learning. Join @beckycarlzon for this FREE workshop exploring this important topic!

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

@essgurumantra I had to think hard about it too! If we took @SirKenRobinson’s understanding of creativity as an example ‘creativity is applied imagination’ then how can we do this while also being told what to do? I couldn’t come up with any examples - where do they coexist? Genuinely curious!

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

Can creativity exist without autonomy? Are the two mutually exclusive?
Are there examples of being creative while being told what to do?

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

@LPALearner Looking forward to seeing you there!

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

@beckycarlzon @mareewhiteley @catrplace @butcher74 @SirKenRobinson I’m going to start with… since kids started as geniuses✅, why don’t we listen to them more? Observe them more, let them be our guides and then support their education with our understanding of pedagogy and development. #EYFS have the right idea!

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]

@beckycarlzon @mareewhiteley @catrplace @butcher74 Well that’s a little awkward! Except as teachers, we kind of knew right? Certainly @SirKenRobinson knew! Now what are we going to do about it? Am loving being part of the #learningpioneers so we can work this out together 💪🏻 💡💥🙋.

[Kimberley Cooper @KimcooperHL]
