Just found out that it's #InternationalCatDay today so we're sharing our favourite cat. Concept Cat is an engaging way to teach early concepts to young children. As well as cute! liftlessons.co/conceptcat @WordAware @lang4think

This morning I was at @StPaulsAcademy1. I checked on a few students who have been doing #LanguageforBehaviourandEmotions intervention. I love this resource, I think it’s so valuable for both language and perspective taking skills @WordAware @lang4think #mySLTday #GreenwichOxleas

Brilliant #WordAware session today at @Kings_heathboys
After learning about compound words, the students were asked to work out the meaning of some words they hadn't heard before 👀 Great work guys! 🙌

It was exciting to receive the ‘Building the Brand’ award at the T&F awards ceremony yesterday for my work on the Expressive Vocabulary Test ✨
It wouldn’t have been possible without @lang4think, @WordAware, @chloefaedesigns and the help of many schools and SaLTs! Thank you 🙏

A great deal of fun today in the Nursery as we explored the concept of 'behind'. @WordAware @BetterCommCIC @lang4think @lift_lessons @ElliotFndtn @BirminghamEdu

In ‘Concept Cat’s’ house today, we learnt about the concept ‘short’. We helped 'Concept Cat' find the ‘short’ pencils and discussed who has ‘short’ and ‘not short’ hair in our class.
