Effective handwriting instruction reduces cognitive load and supports pupils to become skilled writers. The report suggests that handwriting instruction should focus on letter formation, size, orientation, spacing and consistency - the elements supported by the Bubble Writing Handwriting scaffold.

Love that dog! By Sharon Creech
It’s a brilliant book with lots of different forms of poetry and details one boys poetry writing journey. Cannot recommend it highly enough!
Here’s 5 things I’ve learned about handwriting from writing the chapter.
🥉Handwriting isn’t prioritised that much in English schools anymore. While much of the work that is done in school is with paper and pen, as adults type day-to-day, handwriting’s not seen as important.
Daily handwriting practice using mini-whiteboards. Great for improving letter curvature and promoting uniformity of letter height, width and spacing.

The fonts look great on slides and are really easy to use! Writing character descriptions this morning and thinking about how we can get people to challenge their own thinking about a certain character.
Is the giant really all that bad?

Lidl playing Christmas music at the beginning of September is NOT ok! 😢
Lots of mental short cuts;
90:10 rule, near doubles, add/subtract and adjust, times table tricks etc…
And multi-step questions.
I’ve done a similar group and told the children I’m going to teach them to ‘cheat’ and they really go for it!
Week 1 ✅
Roll on the weekend!
