🎁 FREE GIFT: FULL ROSENSHINE CPD PACK! To celebrate 50 consecutive weeks of ⚗️DistillED, I’ve put together something quite cool… Over the past year, Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction has been one of the most requested topics from teachers and school leaders. So I’ve put together a complete, ready-to-run CPD pack to help schools explore and implement all 10 principles. The download includes: → 10 CPD PowerPoints (ready for 30–45 min sessions) → 10 strategy checklists (practical classroom actions) → 10 planning templates (put principles into action ) → Covers all 10 of Rosenshine’s Principles of Instruction Everything you need to run ten focused CPD sessions — one for each principle. 👉 REPOST and comment ROSENSHINE and I’ll DM you the link. Cheers! ⏰ Available until Sunday 22 March!

Disciplinary literacy - The way that a historian reads, writes and thinks is different to how scientist operates. Each subject context has different needs and requirements. It's useful to point this out and have students (and sometimes teachers!) reflect on this.

@MrMorrison_ @microbit_edu Thank you!

I've just added loads of new links to my Padlet of @microbit_edu ideas. It contains a couple of year's worth of micro:bit ideas and resources I've found online. I hope it inspires you to make the most of the micro:bit 😃💡💻. padlet.com/MrM_/microbit

1/4: It has been a pleasure to collaborate with @René Kneyber and @bwildelopez from @toetsrevolutie on summarising the key ideas of their incredible book ‘Formative Action: from instrument to design.’ The first of our 4 one-pagers is a 'Teaching and Learning Map' to make the book accessible and digestible to busy educators. ✅ What is formative action? ✅ How does the formative action model work? ✅What are the advantages of formative action? ✅What are the steps in the formative action design process? ✅What impact does formative action have on teacher practice and student outcomes? Want a copy? Please Repost! @valentinadevid @dmasluijsmans @DrokHilly

Today marks the release of my book, *Teaching One-Pagers*. It represents 18 months of hard graft, distilling important edu-research and honing my design skills. Super grateful to everyone who has supported my one-pagers—your engagement is the driving force behind this project! 🩵

@MrMorrison_ @awesomemicrobit @microbit_edu Thank you!

Over the past couple of years I've saved, bookmarked and listed soo many ideas for the @microbit_edu. I've finally got round to putting them in one place, a Padlet! I hope it leads you to be inspired to do something amazing with the micro:bit 😃💻💡. Padlet.com/mrm_/microbit

🦆A really popular beginner coding project for younger pupils is animated animals 🦆- it involves loops 🔁 which are called ‘iteration’ in computing. 👉Give it a try & extend further by getting them to create their own animals microbit.org/projects/make-… #microbit #Coding #TEACHers

When you give students control of their education, they may be more receptive, engaged in #learning, and willing to take on challenges. sbee.link/mryegcxf49 via TeachThought #edutwitter #teachertwitter #k12

I am a PhD candidate researching the Samoan traditional diet. During the 19th century, Samoans ate two meals a day. One before they worked in the plantation and the second meal was in the evening before the sun went down.

@LiddallTraci There’s two different types of PoA - finances and health. You’ll need the GP onboard; a solicitor to provide independent separate legal advice and a witness. You’ll need to lodge them once witnessed with GP and lawyer. GP will be the one that activates them.

@JLW426 @Drnicolecb New Zealand! Pick us!

@Drnicolecb I’m researching about moving to a country with stricter gun laws + universal healthcare. I think many American parents will be taking this step. I cannot allow my child to be damaged by trauma.

My son's teacher just sent out an email including this statement: "I want you all to know that it is not only my job, but in my nature to protect your children while they are in my care and to make sure that each and every one of them feels loved and safe while at school" 1/

@LiddallTraci All the healthy homes stuff should be declared on the rental agreement
