@_MissieBee @coopuk Is it a public council car park or coop private? If private- ignore. Can’t be enforced

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

I know it’s true, I know its what is needed but some convincing to do. (Not me) Please… point towards all the evidence we can find on moving away from carousel reading groups and to WCR #reading #primary #edutwitter @MrBoothY6 @CassHT @MissStanleyYr6

I just cannot believe we are in school on Tuesday? I think I will call the police. It feels illegal.

@MrBoothY6 I’ve been up and down the school (never y6) and now realising that LkS2 is as important as it is. I love it there and now seeing the gaps in y6 following their lockdown yrs it’s more stark than ever

@miss_wb @MrTs_NQTs Jigsaw puzzles/ those ones with 4 on a box are great

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@eleanormayf @MrTs_NQTs Yes- give as much notice (as possible because anything can change)

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@MR_AECT @MrTs_NQTs @twinklresources Also- it had to be explicitly taught. I’ve always had to do it but Year 3/4 missed key years in ey/ks1 and it’s letter formation and motor skills. Treat it as a mini lesson each day. I start with the letter (a) show where we start, lead in/out,how we join to, how we joint from

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@MR_AECT @MrTs_NQTs I’ve just moved schools.Gone from daily HW practice to nothing and seen a real difference .. this week I began daily practice again. Dedicated h/w books,15 mins a day. Focus on a letter or join pattern (@twinklresources is good). Also- big expectations when transferring to books

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@CassHT Absolutely- we were v strict (and had covid numbers to fall back on)

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

I’ve been trying to ‘improve’ my Sunday routine for so long. Tell myself i’ll do some work, have a quiet day. But for years now, I’ve poured some wine and spent the afternoon cooking and meal prepping and I’m realising that’s ok. #teacherselfcaresunday

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@MrBoothY6 Thank you- looking like I’ll choose @boccadilupo
Great location for drinks after too.

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

Recommendations… in London for my birthday (18th December) somewhere for Sunday food. Usually around Soho/West End but we stay SE London so open to all ideas @MrBoothY6 #food #London

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@MrBoothY6 Italian. But also British. More euro than not but will go for all really

[MrsShawYear4 @sunshine_aims]

@RobCrossley4 @MrEFinch Definitely scholar green- lovely pub
