On this day in 1861, Charles Darwin was relatable.

@redgierob Me too

@aslepage Similarly situation here

Just paid for my 6yo daughter’s school trip £27 per pupil That’s over £800 for the class. 90% of that cost is the coach But it’ll be the museum that gets the bad rep I’m all for schools visiting museums but there has got to be a better way #museums #schooltrip

@_MissieBee @londonteacher_ I always write a plan with 1/2 per day … ignore it and then write them all in 4 nights!!

@londonteacher_ Omg you’re so organised. I’m more of a “do all 30 in the last two evenings available until your eyes feel like they’re bleeding” person 😂

It begins… report writing season is among us!!

@MostlyReading The Heart’s Invisible Furies.

We had two lovely visitors this morning that got us talking about the books that make us cry - so of course we need to ask you - what books have made you have great big sob?

@Mrs_Foyle Love them!

What are people’s thoughts on audiobooks? 👂 📚

@BeeFlownFar @realstevenwords Me too. I just didn’t feel the emotion of it. However, I LOVE My Name Is Mina. It’s one of my favourites - top ten.

@realstevenwords I really, really disliked it. Sorry.

@realstevenwords I LOVED the Mina book. It’s in my top 10 class novels, but really didn’t like Skellig. I tried it again recently and still couldn’t really get on board.

@smithsmm So many favourites on these lists 💛

List 7 Real Life…

So here are some Y5/Y6 booklists linked to Genre. (Some books defy genre, some could have gone in more than one list) The common factor is that they are all books I’ve read, I love and think would work brilliantly in Year 5/6. List 1 Sci-Fi/Dystopia…

@Teacherglitter My 11 is waterproof. Been under water several times :)

I have just upgraded my phone contract to the iPhone 13. It claims it is waterproof and can take photos underwater. Before I start photographing ammonites in rock pools in the summer, is this true iPhone 13 users? My iPhone 11 says water proof but apparently is only splash proof.

@ianaddison Amazing! 👍

@JessicaDPollock All English and science comments to done, half of maths and then needed a break!

It's almost 9am and we have a day to write reports. I have 27 to do. How many will be done by 3pm?

@mini_lebowski Number 2

Which of these logos do you prefer?

@DannieD01 Blueberry 😍

Here are all my **TINY TEACHING TIPS** organised in one thread. (I will keep adding to this thread.) I hope you find something useful: twitter.com/Suchmo83/statu…

One of those joyful teaching moments this afternoon. Looked around the room and the whole class were working quietly on their various tasks: collage, papermaking, marbling and creating bug houses. And then a squirrel appeared outside the window. Chased by a duck. Game over.
