Can anybody help my good friend with mindfulness ideas?
What a fabulous group to run @MaryamIqball
Kickstarting My Mindfulness Club Next Week For My Reception Children. Any Ideas On Activities For Children’s Mindfulness? Currently Planning, Twinkl has A lot, I Would Love To Hear What Other Schools Do For Mindfulness. #ChildrensMindfulness#SEMHChildren#AfterSchoolClub
Any great training you're using?
I'm looking to improve the knowledge around social and emotional barriers to learning in EYFS. Those times when a whole school behaviour policy doesn't quite fit for the youngest children who aren't yet self regulating. #EYFS #edutwitter
The POWER of storytelling from BIRTH. He is only just two years old. "...He was too scary... I sent him back..." 🥰 #EYFS #internalisation #t4w #repeatingrefrain
Take a peep at the setting my lovely team work so hard on. 💚It's a passion 💚. The children thrive in their CLL, PSED, Physical and the all important characteristics! @Mrs_Minhas @MaryamIqball @BGrice_22 Big ICT thanks to @freemotely!

Our Reception 'Maths in Play' area @TheOaklandsBham. A labour of love by our @MaryamIqball #eyfs #maths #continuousprovision
We keep spinning these two plates of vocabulary instruction in our EYFS @TheOaklandsBham
'The key to ‘direct’ or ‘explicit’ instruction is that teachers are carefully selecting words to teach (beforehand) and providing myriad opportunities for learners to ‘Power-Up’ new words'.
NEW blog from @StMattResearch on vocabulary instruction.

Here we go- ready for the ginger and patchy 'taches'. Now more than ever we need to be there for each other.
This is a fantastic idea! And get 'Adventure Island - Play School TV' for Early Years on the good old Telly too @canigoandplay
Hi @OakNational ... There must be a way to add your #remotelearning on the #FreeView TV channel? This way the children lacking devices at home can still access them without missing out. #DFE @educationgovuk - would this be possible?
"I'm making MY mark, not YOUR mark"
When children write with freedom, purpose, magic and joy. Their writing is their own and they write for them, not us. @TheOaklandsBham EYFS team excitedly watched Greg's message centre tutorial tonight @canigoandplay #boys
Talk4Writing brought to life by @Mrs_Minhas. A boxed up story map, model text for adults. Chance to internalise, act out, make marks. Familiar and new stories, props on the shelves to innovate. See the photos of the key actions? @PieCorbett @TheOaklandsBham #nursery #literacy
The children love dipping into the open shelving in our Nursery. They are the boss of their choices. And they tidy up so well with carefully organised labels. @TheOaklandsBham #childinitiated #calming #EYFS #purpose
