@WickedUK Fantastic show last night but disappointingly we couldn't hear most of the singing! Whole songs were performed and we could only hear the odd note. Was so disappointing as you could tell the actors were giving it their all but we just couldn't hear! Were mics too quiet?

Of all the things I thought I would be taking into school during my teaching career...a Jigsaw wasn't one of them... #designandtechnology

@MissLMTeach This is happening to me atm. Year 6s who are very tricky with plenty of behavioural problems. Just can't stop talking!!! We're always late for everything and feel like I've exhausted every speech I can give them about 'being role models' amd 'prioritising their learning' etc etc

@MrRDenham Glad to hear you're OK! I got bitten by a bug in the park yesterday, que today one massive, swollen, painful foot after walking around on it all day and ended up in the walk in centre with a bag of snacks to see me through the wait & reading over tomorrow's lesson🤦🏼‍♀️all good now!

Ben Nevis... 6.5 hour round trip up 4,294 feet 🏔🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿⛰ If I can power through 2.5miles of solid uphill, rocky, uneven steps surrounded by midges then surely I can handle my first #ectyear 💪🏻 #stableonmyfeet #bennevis

@MrTs_NQTs Hi all! I'll be new to #year6 after doing my training in #year4 as a specialist English teacher. Any support/advice/hilarious memes will be gratefully appreciated #ECTKS2 !

@MrFranklin212 Wet play drawer? With lots of colouring sheets and word searches. Or scrap paper drawer for when you just need something quick to write on

[Mr T's NQT/ECT support 🙋🏻‍♂️ @MrTs_NQTs]

Please please please do not produce a folder of evidence for your ECT induction - there is no need for this at all. The statutory guidance makes this clear. https://t.co/S6mjeB5FE7 point 2.53

You will have enough to do without adding an unnecessary task.

@MissLinLondon I'm going in for 2 half days next week....Still have no idea what I'm going to do though!

[Sarah Cross @MsCrossY4]

@MissCTT20 I have these! I use them to put my resources in for each day of the week and then have a few spare for random bits like scrap paper and the wet play drawer. So useful as all my resources for a Monday etc. Are all in one place so everyone knows where to find them #organisation

Getting my TA to do this to me every morning before I let the kids in from now on

Can not believe it's the end of my training year. It feels so surreal that it's now the summer and I'll be starting back as an ECT in Year 6 in just 6 weeks! Can't wait for the next step in my teaching journey 🍾 #teachertraining #schoolsoutforsummer #timeflieswhenyourehavingfun

[Sarah Cross @MsCrossY4]

@MissGuyTeaches Hahah don't worry!

[Sarah Cross @MsCrossY4]

I really want to use this in my Year 6 classroom but am unsure how to... it would have to be on the side wall not the wall at the front of the class. Any suggestions welcome! #edutwitter @MrTs_NQTs #year6 #classroomprep #classroomdecor @TeacherToolkit

[Sarah Cross @MsCrossY4]

@MissGuyTeaches That's where I saw it. Just need to know how to best use it in the classroom

Excited for my lockdown baby to come out in November! Also excited to find out I am "controversial" https://t.co/MuhvlwEgjC

@MissStathamx I have the green one! It's beautiful

Life’s too short for cheap glue sticks.

@Mr_Sam_W @MisterFirth This is the only way! I hate flappy bits!
