Reason 1 billion why I love my school: our SENDCO came into our year 3/4 play rehearsal today just to say hello, then decided to improvise a dance to the song we were practicing and proceeded to dance on the stage in front of all of the children... I have never laughed so much 😂

Having a very ‘I’m not cut out for this’ kinda week this week and it’s draining

@TheLittlestBio That being said, when doing animal food chains several members of my class created a food chain for a Kraken 😂 must remember not to blur the line between reality and imagination

[Sammy 🌻 @MissSLyf_]

@TheLittlestBio I teach this in year 4!

PRIMARY HISTORY/TOPIC LEADERS, ASSEMBLE!

How do other schools assess humanities? Are there grids? Teacher discretion? Child led assessment?

Tell me all your secrets xx

@MrAllington I’m glad I wasn’t the only one baffled/slightly insulted by that analogy 🤦🏼‍♀️

@MrAllington When I applied for a TA job, not long out of uni and struggling with cripplingly low self-esteem and anxiety, the deputy head’s first words to me after my interview were ‘you should train to be a teacher.’ 4 years later and I’m in my second year of teaching at the same school 👩🏼‍🏫

Friendly reminder why the #oxfordcomma is important:

[Sammy 🌻 @MissSLyf_]

My controversial(?) opinion of the month: I agree with Pullman about the Oxford comma 🤷🏼‍♀️ always been a fan tbh (of both Pullman and the comma) #oxfordcomma

Today, a Y4 boy told me he really wants to write stories but is worried people will read them and laugh at him. Dear authors of Twitter, if you could please write him a tweet-sized message of encouragement for me to pass on I'd be so grateful. His name is Kai. Thanks in advance.

Just had a very weird experience in the Post Office. It's not funny or amusing. Just weird. There's no humorous ending or anything like that, it was just...odd.

So anyway, I'm standing in the Post Office, with about 5 parcels to mail, and I've been in there for about 20 mins.
