Choice should begin with each writer choosing the writer’s notebook that matches their needs. Writer's notebooks should be as individual as the writers who use them. There is not just one way to use them. Discover what works for you. #write #writersnotebook

@xmuse_ Man happy memories of a visit to St Petersburg, The Hermitage and walking on a foggy morning and coming across these. Amazing!

When teachers control choice of student writing topics, expecting voice is a bit like watching a bird almost fly.

An advantage of knowledge-rich curricula over skills-based ones that I haven't seen discussed much is with the former students can see they are making progress—they know things they formerly didn't. When students see they are making progress they are more likely to invest effort.

(1/3) It needs repeating: in 1994, Ukraine was persuaded to give up its nuclear weapons to Russia in return for the US, the UK, and Russia guaranteeing Ukraine’s sovereignty, security, and territorial integrity.

@i_iratus So many amazing deeds done by ordinary people in extraordinary times in modern history amid conflicts. Alliances and deeds maligned by a grubby old politician ensuring he remains relevant to his voters in the hope of being re-elected. Move on buddy.

Whenever you welcome guests, treat them with kindness, grace and respect. Simple as that.

@alwriting 🤣👍

Don't start with graphic organizers and fill in the details. Start by collecting details, encourage organization to arise within the individual writer. Pose questions like- How might information support your best writing?
Encourage thinking, ownership and decision making.

Great to see oral language front and centre in literacy teaching and learning. /au_en/articles/unpacking-the-science-of-reading-what-the-research-says

Fascinating - a must read - the broken logic of Sold a Story. It questions binary views and 'settled science' claims. There can be no 'settled sciences', it isn't in the accepted tradition or practice, or spirit of science. Check out this flipbook https://t.co/rLEKtPywsV

[Jacqui Clayton @JacquiClayton1]

Science - what is science? How science and the assumption that 'science is settled' has been misused in many binary theories and media narratives. Powerful quote!

[Jacqui Clayton @JacquiClayton1]

Love this - "Reading instruction should foster readers who relish text, dive into literate activity with passion, and value themselves as readers" from Maren Aukerman. Have you read this yet? Thanks Mary for sharing.

[Jacqui Clayton @JacquiClayton1]

Fantastic to see oral language as part of what we need to teach for learners to be successful. How are you focusing on oral language in your context? Are you differentiating teaching for your learners? Is it fun and engaging for your learners? Read this when you have time.

[Jacqui Clayton @JacquiClayton1]

Reading aloud to others is so powerful. Are you making time to read to your learners.

@henrycooke Then the finance Minister’s ‘Toyota Corolla’ options across the strait would become a reality.
