Create a dinosaur small world. If you’re adding water/mud/slime it pays to create your world in a large tub. 👌 #playmatters #stayhome #learnwithplay https://t.co/d1h5t2kZlp

Simple open play ideas can be the best way to engage children. Invitations that beg to be touched. Here I just put out a range of recycled packaging (anything with lots of sections is perfect), a few containers of different coloured water (just a few dri… https://t.co/oofrYN1tmC

Sorting, classifying and counting in prep, all incidentally (with the right facilitation) thanks to a big spill during investigative learning time. Turning it into a race to see if “team sheep” would beat all the other teams, kept us laughing and interes… https://t.co/8GyvaWlFlm

And to think that I was complaining in the staffroom the other day about cutting out tons of circles. 19 stars later and I started wondering if it’s time I invested in a Cricut type machine. Anyone have one? They’re not cheap but I’d use it quite a bit,… https://t.co/YD47G1Lpdi

Organisation is prep-student ready 👌 I love how my class (ok, almost all of them), always end up taking such care and pride in their classroom. Having clear, usable organisation is key because it’s easy for them to access, use and pack away. #teacher… https://t.co/802e4mt4Df

Who else would thoroughly enjoy putting out a fresh, brand new, perfectly pointy set of pencils? Ahhhh, so satisfying. To think, these very pencils will soon be held by curious little hands and used to learn how to form letters, write words and construct… https://t.co/yZBXfksXGG

New year, new personalised student desk plates, name tags etc. I love all the greenery in my classroom too much to change the theme up, but this @teachstarter blue leaf design is complementing it nicely 👌 #classroomdecor #classroomorganization #teach… https://t.co/rmIKyoyB7O

Our annual camping trip with friends inevitably involves the children’s annual river rock collecting, painting and then (on NYE, with a captive and very ‘happy’ customer source), tent-to-tent selling. They made quite a bit of money last year (all spent a… https://t.co/9HpSrDandt

What’s in your stocking this Christmas? 👉 Just when I thought I couldn’t love my favourite @micador watercolour pallets any more than I already did, they’ve released a new 48 colour pallet with added neon and metallic colours. 🙌🏻 (It’s possible the n… https://t.co/BXsMmPq3KK

Our class Post Office/General Store, as chosen and voted for by my students, has been very well used over the past term. I can’t believe there’s only a few more days to go. https://t.co/VXBNpIwo4r

Last week of school for the year coming up!!! Lots of cool Christmas activities and crafts on @teachstarter to finish up with some festive fun. My class liked making these simple paper-bag puppets last week. https://t.co/FlOKAGiakN

Foam dough, or whatever you call it. The sensory loving kids in my class really enjoyed getting their hands into this sensory experience and loved mixing it and adjusting quantities to get the desired texture. https://t.co/fvOvRwsgjf

Showed the preps how to do string pull art today, using our @micador tempera paint and a piece of string. They were quite impressed. Looking forward to seeing their own attempts tomorrow. https://t.co/96jO9kvlJT

Our maths lesson on height and length took a Christmassy turn and we ended up making a cardboard box Christmas tree and little tree decorations. My class are very proud of their creation and we can’t wait to add to it over the next weeks. #learnwithplay https://t.co/fDrrinQtXI
