Hi there! Just a quick intro, I'm Ollie. A former teacher now part of Team Twinkl.
I'm hoping to get involved in discussion and shout out some of the amazing work happening on #edutwitter
Aiming to be a little corner of positivity on Twitter! Gimme a follow and say hello :)
To celebrate having my very own playlist on Spotify 😱 I thought we could play a game...It’s time to #PutBeckyInASong here’s my efforts...

5 Things Teachers Should Know
1 Kids like being in your class
2 They appreciate the effort you put in
3 They don’t mind if sometimes you need a break and books don’t get marked
4 Parents think you’re doing a good job, but probably won’t say
5 You’re doing better than you think
If you are planning today remember not every lesson needs a crazy hook or amazing video or fabulous slides that have gifs embedded.
You can just stand up, explain what they need to know and let them have a go. Sometimes the best lessons start with an empty whiteboard.
@MissMaclean4 This is a really lovely thing to do from time to time. An old school of mine used to have all teachers join their class for lunch on Fridays. It was really nice!
The class I’m with at the minute were really difficult behaviour wise yesterday, so I thought now might be a good time to introduce my #QuietCritters. They worked an absolute treat! I think I’ve cracked it 🤩
When “stick it on the next clean page” magically turns into “stick it on any page you like, go for the middle or back of your book if you want- I’ll spend 5 minutes searching for it!”😍😍😍
