Today we read The Mediterranean by Armin Greder with Stage 3. Wow! What an amazing book. The conversations it ignited and the thinking it promoted was amazing. The book has almost no words, the students worked hard making inferences and connections to build meaning. #aussied

My attempt at a root word tree for geo! Root words expand our vocabulary and comprehension; an integral part of my literacy lessons. #literacy #learningdifficulties #asd #autism #reading #spelling #morpheme #rootwords #adhd #disabilities #teaching #teacher

Students with dyslexia benefit from a highly skilled teacher explicitly teaching skills and strategies in reading, writing and spelling. Actually all students gain from this. #dyslexia #asd #adhd #learningdifficulties #autism #mtnsmade #teaching #education #growthmindset

Instead of NAPLAN, let’s have a unified and correct approach to teaching our children how to read, write and do maths.

Boys and girls perform about the same in science, technology, engineering and mathematics at school, so why the gender gap later in life?

@fustbariclation @yamatho2 Thanks!! Great ideas

[The Holistic Teacher @holistictchr]

Ever used binary coding? We used it to write our names in today’s coding class! Fun!!
