@robfmac Where can I find this?

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@OctopusEnergy Great, I was never clear on that. The car is out but the rest of the household home.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@MissEmmaTurner Haha, my daughter used to play classrooms with her toys. She'd wrote reports. Give feedback on their learning etc.

Now has 0 interest in school/teaching/kids.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@MathsWebb It's hard. My preferred approach is to allow with control of time, place, you reading etc. That way they're included but you can help them navigate proper use. In a few years time they'll have a phone and access to everything - furm restrictions could cause a rebound later.

@mrallanmaths @StudyMaths The argument I heard was it was more natural/conceptual for pupils to count up (direction). We have 100 squares that go both ways at school, pupils usually take the side that starts at 1 top left.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@Bruce_NextLevel @VCA1978 we should have a teachers bookshelf in the school. That wee white and red fabric one maybe?

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@gls_education 🥳

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@Bruce_NextLevel @VCA1978 yup 🤣.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@mrallanmaths It's an impossible game 🤣. My daughter was easily bribed but it had to be in the moment. My son was more stubborn. I once bought a toy he wanted, taped it the fridge and once it had enough stickers on it he got it. He needed a visual.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@mrallanmaths You might need some quicker wins in amongst that. Though stickers might be enough. Also think about your strategy if she doesn't quite achieve it... No soft play? She'll wonder why she made an effort the other days. Good luck.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@Bruce_NextLevel When I have done this successfully, it's because I've paraphrased their generated SC until it met the SC I wanted.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@Bruce_NextLevel @KHair_BusEd @dnleslie I've been using this simplicity to try and explain differentiation to our probationers. Those micro assessments and adaptations that teachers do throughout their lessons (unplanned) are so important too.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@mrallanmaths It doesn't last forever then it's replaced by the next 'thing' and a never ending amount of worry. Some times are harder than others.

@drewburrett @scotgov @ScotGovEdu @COSLA My daughter has just started physical at uni and the practical stuff is a bit of an unknown to get (and others). She had excellent teaching and support at high school, but there was little to no practical due to resources I think.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@dogsandrobins Proper parenting fail 🤣. I highly recommend Homies baffies, get them on a deal though as too pricey.

[Susan Taylor @unclekirk]

@NUthmani My daughter leaves in a few days for uni, and my son goes into 2nd yr uni and is likely moving out soon too. I have no idea what to do with myself! They're not far so I'll see plenty of them, but it's still very strange.
