So important for international mindedness in the IB classroom.

Even if the kids you teach aren't bilingual, this graphic reminds us to celebrate student strengths!!

In this post, @Catlin_Tucker shares 5 thinking routines developed by @ProjectZeroHGSE and a Google slide deck for each thinking routine so teachers can encourage students to learn with AND from each other online. https://t.co/jc16tmeC6M

Thank you for all your messages of support re the FREEMAN film. It’s truly been overwhelming & I’m so happy so many enjoyed it. And thank you Laurence Billiet of @general__strike for getting it right. You, Stephen Page, Lillian Banks & all involved portrayed my story perfectly.🙏🏾

This is my best thing to watch today 😳👌🏼

Mine was the GFC. We had to re-learn all our statistics for economics in the days and weeks before the exams.

Teachers, it’s easy to overlook your own welfare when you're primarily concerned with that of the children. Take some time out to try one (or all) of these 25 well-being activities… https://t.co/5gyfhpkNy6 🤩 #Teacherwellbeing #Primaryrocks

It's KK's birthday!

A great chance to relive her #FIFAWWC 'Olimpico'.

@MegAnderson___ Yes, Meg! It’s all about the waste we create and where it goes! Would recommend!

Preparing for tomorrow’s mini-exhibition on Sharing the Planet. Our central idea is: People Share Responsibility for the Environment #pyp #sharingtheplanet

📦 Didn’t expect to receive this in a package at school. There are some truly lovely people out there - thanks Chris, this will definitely go to good use!

[Sophie McGrath @smcgrath06]

I’m proud of the effort students have put into this Unit of Inquiry! Their displays for their mini-exhibition look great, but it’s even better that they were able to discuss and explain the action they’re taking with or without fancy displays #pyp #sharingtheplanet

@McGuirea499 @SupportWrm @WhiteRoseMaths @WRMathsSec @mrshawthorne7 Used this with my Year 6 class and it was awesome! Thanks!

New mini whiteboards! Get students to brainstorm or write down everything they know, they are more likely to take risks because it can be easily rubbed out.

#OnThisDay in 2007, a 16-year-old @EllysePerry became the youngest ever Australian to make her international cricket debut!

Playing against New Zealand in Darwin, Pez finished the day with two wickets and 19 runs to her name.

[Sophie McGrath @smcgrath06]

I know the feeling way too well!! Love the effort and prep that went into it though, the kids will remember it for a long time!

[Kat O'Malley @Kat_OMalley]

@smcgrath06 Yup, although after a 485 week term, I’ll admit the timing wasn’t great! Kids were super engaged!

As a principal, I will continue to encourage the arts, philosophy, the humanities... as much as the maths & sciences. When I was sick, science saved me - but the humanities got me through it. You cannot have one without the other. The world cannot be reduced to such binaries.
