Another super CPD day with @leaderstoday EYFS network. A gorgeous visit to @Alfretonnursery, insightful time with colleagues, and a great session with @AndyBurtEEX on meeting the needs of all learners absolutely filled my bucket to the brim on #WorldMentalHealthDay2024
COMPETITION- I'm giving away 3 signed copies of The Behaviour Whisperer, to help teachers improve behaviour as the academic year starts. Simply RT to enter. Lucky winners will be drawn out on the evening of Thursday 12 Sept.
Behaviour is a way of communicating an unmet need,a way of communicating distress.Lets not
get stuck on the behaviour but instead look beneath the behaviour by asking ourselves,what are the causes & conditions that are leading to this behaviour.What's missing in their lives🧠🌱
@Mr_Mac_Primary I once wanted to play the old hedgehog road safety advert. Googled, played the first 10 seconds, all looked good, so saved it to play to my Year 1 class that afternoon. The ending of the video showed a car drive over a real hedgehog. Lesson.. watch the whole video!!
@9000lives_org Indeed, having to purchase many additional mats, training seats, stools & supplies for when parents haven't sent enough. Having to pull cover from other classes to support during changing times throughout the day. Thankfully we've got 9 of them trained now in 6 weeks.
@AnnamariaBevan I 100% agree. My nursery class this year started with very low PSED, PD & CL. A whole term of forest school and they're so much more independent, building relationships and loving taking risks and trying new things 💚
