@primaryteachew We went with Christmas Chronicles 2

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

still stuck in no internet hell for an undisclosed amount of time! 😢 Any suggestions on how to progress this?

I’m out of ideas. Tired of speaking to @bt_uk to be told they’re doing their best! And it’s not their fault?! @BT_Openreach are not fit for purpose imo.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

Do not switch to BT fibre broadband! Sounds amazing but @WeAreOpenreach can’t deliver. We’re now disconnected from previous provider but looking at another 2 weeks at least (waited 2 weeks already). Come on! @bt_uk sort it out! Not good enough.

@primaryteachew What a lush way to spend the day.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

❤️❤️❤️ this. Asked the children to draw a picture of their favourite characters or parts (so far) from @CRSains Slugs invade the Jam Factory. They took a lot home but let me keep these. #lovereading #ks1

• talks to children about being a girl with ADHD
• CPD around inclusivity for neurodivergent staff
• resource creation (speciality: books/reading/English/primary)
• writing blogs and articles

But if there’s anything else too, please ask!

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@primaryteachew Yep great idea. Mine would be.
✳️ go to the gym & run every week
✳️ make a healthy lunch every day
✳️ write down a positive thought/success every day

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@primaryteachew I wonder if the issue now is there literally are ‘plenty more fish in the sea’ (on the app) so there’s no incentive to let a relationship develop over time. It has to be ‘chemistry ‘ in 1or2 dates or move on. (Not you ofc). You’ll find them. Take a break to remember your Worth

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@annecater Hell no. I do the research, check dates, book the holiday, sort out paperwork, pack for me and kids. He packs for himself.
I used to pack for both of us (before kids). He moaned once I forgot his swimming shorts. Reader, I never packed for him again. 😂

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@primaryteachew I enjoyed the science and industry museum.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@FunkyPedagogy I hate pen licenses. Luckily my school doesn’t have them. So demoralising for those kids who don’t have the motor skills or development and those who would just find it much easier to write with a pen anyway.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@primaryteachew I’m with you. Still 3 days to go. Anyone else really struggling for planning next week? Finding it difficult to strike the balance between structure and more free flow when both the child children and I are basically done for the summer.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@zubiedoo I couldn’t watch. This is horrific. Have the no understanding of ARFID and Autism? I’m really hoping they have help from people they will listen to so they can get her out.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@CarrieGrant1 The situation countrywide is awful. A friend has set up a sponsorship and sharing page (https://t.co/aDUHTsNK8I) Take a look at the SEND kids to Downing Street Challenge. Let’s share our stories and take an opportunity to group together to try to influence change from the top.

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

I met @emmagoto @EducationFest. We had a lovely chat about defiance vs compliance. This article has made me reflect on my language choices. Wouldn’t vs can’t. https://t.co/OhJWecUCdy

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@pastelteacher Oh no. Poor you. Hope you recover quickly

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

Just a lovely little art activity this afternoon in Year 2. We needed this. Thank you to @Primaryteachew and @teacherglitter for the inspo and planning to work from. They enjoyed it and every one is unique. #edutwitter #ks1 #endofyear

🧵I’m reading lots of very well constructed threads by women trying to explain to men why crashing any conversation about male violence against women with “#NOTALLMEN” is unhelpful and exhausting…
Trouble is, the kind of guys who leap in with #notallmen (and I used to be one)…

[Primary Teacher Wilts @PrimaryWilts]

@primaryteachew Out for a run trying not to think about the next 8 days. The end is nigh
