What do people recommend as a spelling scheme?
Looking for something offline and whole class.
anyone recommend any good quality resources for children to learn how to write written answers to a shortish text (e.g. 1 side of A4 text)?
Looking to supplement our whole-class reading with a sprinkle of these.
On and off. Purely for edu stuff. I only go on X now to laugh at rediculous comments about πΊ & β½

Great to see you here!
Easy include & good to see you here too!
My son (Austin) is 13 in a couple of weeks & we sorted through some of his books. He wanted to ditch 90% of them π - can you guess 4 books by 1 author that didn't even enter his mind to let go? ππͺ

Anyone recommend a wired lightning or USB C cable keyboard or digitpad for ipads?
Thank you for a fabulous hour or so of chat about all things early years @jonhutchinson.bsky.social and @emmaturner75.bsky.social
what on earth...
the list I have made and keep adding to, to power the primarysky and primaryskylight feeds has now disappeared from my account?! π€¬
They still are! Saw them last year with my son π€ͺ
That's a whole different five! π
Love the first half of CS but surely you are breaking your own rule - nearly 300k listens for 3 songs in the album?!
Also, Word Gets Around is π love a thousand trees, local boy & eyelids.

All subjects then have a simple 'below/towards/at sumnatice judgement.
We don't look at individual objectives outside of formative uses as it's a pointless waste of time imo

Great to see @emmacate.bsky.social active on here π all the lovely people have arrived π
