Morning - I'm very happy to have a full class set of the brilliant Glitter Boy by @MrEagletonIan to give away via @ANewChapterBks.

Full class sets transform the reading experience for a class & this book is perfect for sparking rich class discussion.

From medieval cookies to a home made Bayeux Tapestry… the engagement in our medieval topic homework has been phenomenal! @Rise_MAT @OakthorpeSchool

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

The children have been absolutely fascinated by the transatlantic slave trade topic in history and remembered so much knowledge as a result! @OakthorpeSchool @Rise_MAT

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

This was such a good day and really brought our renewable energy topic to life. Oh and completely free!! Get in touch with @EarthEnergyEd

[Oakthorpe Primary @OakthorpeSchool]

Pioneers had an incredible day today! Learning all about how solar panels work, how electricity works and more about sustainable energy. @Rise_MAT

A bit of cpd tonight with @Rise_MAT I love this analogy of the relay race for I do, we do, you do. @StephenLeeds79

@dmouldseducator @OakthorpeSport They were both so lovely. They are hosting a Ukrainian family so hopefully we will be seeing more of them 😊

I had some very excited year 5/6s today when we had a visit from an ex-pupil of ours, Alex Pascanu, now a real-life professional footballer! @OakthorpeSport

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

@d_a_ellison African mask topic pre-teach and a bit of Africa research for homework I’m hoping 🙏🏻

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

Great first week back with the kids, even when the film crew came in right at the time a boy asked if I should have written “whom” and not “who is a pioneer?” 😳 said child also asked if Jamaica is in Africa… we’ve got some work to do 😂

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

Mind blown 🤯 going to share this with some gds potentials in arithmetic next week

[Howie Hua @howie_hua]

New TikTok video: Did you know you can subtract left to right?

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

@CassHT @pastelteacher Love your displays, especially your English - lovely and clear. How do you find y5/6 with group tables rather than rows?

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

@kngbell @rachel_culpan Yes it was! I felt so proud 🥹 great public speaker and we were with her all the way!

[Mrs Rooney @MrsVRooney]

Great session with @rachel_culpan learning all about the #thrive approach this morning. Can’t wait to begin putting it into practice next week. It’s going to benefit our children and families so much. @Rise_MAT
