If it's helpful to schools and teachers, below is the link to a year's worth of picturebook assembly suggestions that have a focus on empathy, diversity, equality and inclusion. They're all books I've used and loved. #edusky padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/r...

I wanted to be Mrs Smith when I was 3 (my nursery teacher), but my all time favourite with Miss Brewin in P1 and P3.

Random thing that helps me is a woolly hat pulled down or worn with an eye mask. Blocking out light and making myself warm takes the edge off.

An interesting read that has given me a lot to think about. My brain is buzzing with ideas of how to try something similar in my own school.

This looks really interesting. Can I ask if you ever invite the children or is it purely individual choice? How do you evidence the learning (or do you even need to)?

There is a good Rockin the Standards 7 times table song. It’s catchy and every class I’ve used it with have improved their recall (admittedly I play it on repeat 🤣)

My class are reading @scattyscribbler.bsky.social ‘s fantastic “Rivet Boy” and learned all about Andrew Carnegie from her Time Tunnellers video. We made a pact that if any of us become very rich we will build a library in their village.

There are such a great range of fantastic children’s books around! I had a reluctant reader recently who downloaded the audiobook of our class novel because he was desperate to know what happened next.

One of the SEND kids in my school (not in my class) came running to give me a hug and a smile then told me he missed me the day before.

I love it when that happens! My class read “The Titanic Detective Agency” by Lindsay Littleson last year and a couple ended up travelling to Belfast to visit the Titanic museum.
