What a PLEASURE to make summary of @greg_ashman's EXCELLENT (and very short!) book on Cognitive Load Theory.

We are stacking a new habit - Bookmark Mondays. Over the week (like many I guess) we save lots of posts that we want to return to or explore in more detail. Like this amazing resources from @MrGoodwin23 and @teacherhead which we have come back to, through our bookmarks, and will share as the feature CPD snack on our whole school Monday briefing today.
