Let's imagine I could send your class free weekly updates following a sheep through the lambing season. Vet scanning, birth, feeding etc. Answering any question the children might have. Who might be interested?

I’d like to give away a copy of #100ideas to an NQT. It is full of ideas for everyone regardless of experience but I really love working with ITE & early career teachers and I’d like to give something back. Tag your NQTs and I’ll do a random number draw on 5/10/20 after #ASEchat
