When people tell me that they want to get back into reading but can’t seem to find THAT BOOK, I have some go-to recs based on what made them love reading in the first place

— here are 56 of them 🧵

[Kate Foster 🐕 @kfosterauthor]

Would any teachers, librarians, educators, parents, etc. be interested in receiving a newsletter (maybe quarterly) celebrating and discussing all things disability & neurodiversity in children's literature around the world? 💕

@Shameeema @TeachFirst @BarbaraBleiman Hi Shameema! Your tutor will have sent you the link but don’t worry if you’ve missed it, you’ll be sent a recording.

[Emma King-Jones @emmamking]

Couldn’t be more excited that our @TeachFirst English trainee teachers will hear from @BarbaraBleiman today on vital principles for English teaching.

[Barbara Bleiman 🎓 Education is Conversation @BarbaraBleiman]

I’m doing a ‘What Matters in English Teaching’ session for @TeachFirst organised by @emmamking this pm. A privilege to talk to those training to teach the subject - hopefully inspiring them in the way that I was inspired myself, with ideas & principles to steer & sustain them.

This will close in a couple of days - if you’re a secondary school teacher or senior leader and could find the time to complete it I’d very much appreciate it (but I know how busy you all are, so I’m amazed at how many responses I already have!)
