From 2 years ago but it is becoming a very worrying trend...Why it matters that teens are reading less https://t.co/uENOOkD757 via @ConversationUS

"Being read to, just for pleasure, should be an intrinsic part of the school day, as normal, unquestionable and as unchangeable as lunch break."

[Kate Lester @SACJnrLibrary]

It’s Time for a Permanent Change in Reading Habits https://t.co/5YcYJ7RsuZ via @aasl . Our Term 2 Reading Challenge encourages boys to read across genres - fiction, non fiction and picture books to understand concepts like 'bravery' or 'friendship'.

Absolutely agree. As Labor politician and indigenous leader, Linda Burney said today, ‘if we erase the past we can’t learn from it’

Can agree with this...

[MindShift @MindShiftKQED]

Increasingly, teachers are finding that a handful of students—shy kids, hyperactive kids, highly creative kids—are doing better with remote learning than they did in the classroom. @NoraFleming1 @edutopia https://t.co/iGnn1Q9gNi

#onlinelearning is awesome!!

[Mike Carlton @MikeCarlton01]

Good luck and thank you to all those teachers back at work tomorrow. You are the backbone of our future. #teachersrock

[Vicki Kempton @vk177]

#Teachersrock definitely but so do principals. Let’s give a shout out to the leading educators in our schools who have lost sleep, worried and got on with a we can attitude. Thank you for all you do and are going to do. #Principalsrock

[Amber Flohm @AFlohm]

As a parent, teacher and someone who works with many public ed teachers everyday, I’ve yet to meet a teacher who doesn’t care deeply for their students! A fitting tribute to you all on the eve of your return to Term 2. #teachersrock

[Kurt Fearnley @kurtfearnley]

But I’ll say more🤣. With 3 sisters & a brother teaching in public schools, my young fella in Kindy in another. As a trained teacher with countless friends about to start term 2 in NSW. Unfortunately you don’t get the Gold Medal accolades, but you guys deserve it. #teachersrock

[Jihad Dib MP @jihaddibmp]

Whether you’ve walked a mile in their shoes, been a student or related to a teacher, you’d know, they are superheroes without capes. As they go work tomorrow, take a moment to let them know that you believe #Teachersrock
