If you see a kid squinting at the board, you would suggest they get glasses. Why can’t educators #SayDyslexia and get kids diagnosed? #DyslexiaShowcase @MadeByDyslexia @DyslexiaRE

If we increase the number of teachers that are able to teach with explicit, structured, multi-sensory reading methods, we can increase the number of students that reach grade-proficient reading while in school. ow.ly/GNBE30nAY5O

Can’t say this enough- teachers need to take the time and leave their classrooms to watch other teachers teach. Admin that value school culture and learning will support this. We are each other’s best local professional development. #ObserveMe

It is through mistakes that knowledge will grow. Teachers do not need to be the all knowing expert. It is better to model being a curious inquirer. Someone who seeks to play with knowledge, learn with students & model being OK making mistakes & learning from them. #LimitlessMind – at Stanford, CA

Today in Y6 we looked at poems that could be read forwards & backwards. I was stunned by this one written by one of my 10 year olds. Please share - I would love her work to be appreciated further afield. I wonder if it could even find a publisher?
