We had a really inspiring meeting today - some excellent ideas from our learners about how we can bring our plans to fruition. Exciting - and challenging! - times ahead!
Excellent first meeting with the @northfieldaca Reading Schools Leadership team this afternoon - was really inspiring to hear their suggestions about what we can do to try to strengthen the reading culture at school! Lots of interesting ideas to work with!!
Delighted to be meeting the team for the first time this week - working towards the @scottishbktrust #readingschools to build a Reading for Pleasure culture in @northfieldaca
Plenty of updates to come!
🌟SCHOOLS GIVEAWAY🌟 For 25 years, we've been working to empower EVERY child to become a reader. To celebrate our birthday and #DAW23, we're giving away a set of 25 Barrington Stoke books *of your choice!*
To enter, follow and RT by 5pm 8th October. UK schools only. Ts&Cs in bio.
Highlight of the Higher Prelim marking: "Blinded from any consequence, his fate was sealed by a single phone call. Dialled in desperation, across a phone-line of emotion." 'A View from the Bridge' critical essay conclusion with style! Outstanding!! @NorthfieldEng@northfieldaca
Such a great feeling to be completing so many Praise Postcards for S4-6s in their recent Scottish Text practice! Lots of hard work is really paying off!! @NorthfieldEng@northfieldaca
Alasdair Gray is one of my favourite authors - I used Lanark as one of my dissertation texts for university, but I thought it might be cheating to use the same book for two challenges! @NorthfieldEng#MrBainSummerReading
Summer holidays are almost here and that means there's more time for reading! How many challenges can you complete before we go back to school in August? @northfieldaca
Something a little fun as we move into the last week of term! Reading is such an amazing pastime - you get to experience other people's lives and learn from perspectives that you've never known. Try one of my challenges and share your reading with @NorthfieldEng
This summer we are challenging you to take part in #AberdeenReads: The World Tour.
Can you help us get Library Bear all the way around the world and home again before summer ends? For every book read or challenge completed, Library Bear will travel 20 bear miles around the World
Another fabulous morning with the P7s @northfieldaca in @NorthfieldEng. One thing that delights me is how polite and considerate the P7s are towards the teacher - so many perfect 'please' and 'thank yous' when asking for things. It's those little bits that make it so pleasant!
