@DavidNautilus1 On a job exchange in Australia our son was put into a class one year below where he should have been, and essentially twiddled his thumbs for the year (though he benefited greatly from the cultural experience). He’s now a consultant surgeon.
A small taste of what you could have had with Jeremy Corbyn (plus a four-day week) if the right-wing of Labour had allowed it. Instead, they gave you tax cuts for billionaires with Murdoch and Johnson
Doing some early years learning with a balance machine, toys, golf ball and poker chips. Poker chips are great for arranging, counting, stacking (and then knocking over if young enough). The red bus is heavier than the yellow taxi, and, 4 poker chips are heavier than a golf ball.
BORIS JOHNSON
🔴Rishi Sunak INSISTS the public are not interested in who BANKROLLED Boris Johnson whilst he was Prime Minister.
WHERE is the Russia Report, Sunak?
👉RETWEET if you are VERY interested in Johnson's financial backers.

I’m giving my first talk soon in seven years, to some 40 champion maths teachers in East Dumbarton, and decided to call it ‘The Visual Language of Numeracy’.
I’ve decided to give my first numeracy talk in the seven years since retiring, to all 40+ champion maths teachers in East Dumbarton, in November. Meanwhile I recently visited a school in Windhoek to hand over a Numeracy Map and a Wee Red Box, and to share techniques with classes.
The app for the Numeracy Map was recently made free for all three levels. I’ve since realised in order to access levels 2 and 3 you need to delete your older version of the App and then download the new version. Numeracy, let’s get excellent.
“Disengaging with China not credible, says James Cleverly”
It’s even less “credible” because we decided to jettison the EU - our allies and biggest trading partner via BREXIT https://t.co/HFNzyuidOL
The reason Brexit has failed is not down to the bad trade deal Boris Johnson struck with the EU (although it doesn't help). It is not down to a "Remainer parliament". It is not down to a "blob", invented or otherwise. Brexit has failed because it was always a bad idea.
The UK Government is trying to hang this portrait of King Charles in every public building including schools.
The SNP rejected it and saved £8m that they can actually spend on education.
If you want it out of our schools RT.

Taylor Wimpey has Tory peer & major Tory donor Jitesh Gadhia on its board.
The Conservative Party derives very large amounts in donations from property interests.
Anti-corruption charity Transparency International says this creates a "real risk of corruption".

In took just 17 hours of trading yet the owners of Britian's 3 largest house building firms go to bed tonight £643,000,000 richer than when they woke up yesterday morning.
This was never about persevering our rivers it was always about persevering Conservative Party donations.
All three levels of the Numeracy Map are now FREE.
Level 1 mainly suitable for P2/3/4
Level 2 mainly suitable for P4/5/6
Level 3 mainly suitable for P5/6/7
The mapping techniques stem from my researching alleviation strategies for dyscalculia (and beneficial for most learners).
