Honestly the power of our new metaphor booklet has been insane. I’m not sure I’ve ever had classes think so deeply about the meanings behind methods. Some snippets below. 📸Upcoming session tweet shared in thread⬇️

@lisajaneashes @RachelOrr @jim1982 Yeah, me too! 🤣

@RachelOrr @jim1982 @beetlebug1 Happy #PedagooChristmas! Surely it was only a year or two ago. I'm pretty sure I'm still only 15.

@jim1982 @beetlebug1 @lisajaneashes You’ve all been waiting for this!!!!

@paulsmithmusic @maximopark No worries, next time. Amazing show! Great sound. Hope you’re enjoying the delights of Manchester. We are! ☺️

@beetlebug1 @maximopark Ah, sorry!

Enjoyed a most amazing gig from @maximopark in Manchester for my 50th Maximo gig! Hoping they come out soon, it’s chilly! 🤞 @paulsmithmusic #goodtimesinmanchester

@Boro_Joe @maximopark I’ve got 2 to sell, face value as I can’t get there 😞

@maximopark Any spares?

The Firestation, Sunderland, UK Doors: 5pm Ladakee: 6.15pm Melanie Baker: 7.15pm Maximo Park: 8:45pm See you later!

High challenge, low threat There can be a tendency to make things too easy for some of our pupils in the mistaken belief that they can’t cope. With the right support, they can.

@maximopark What a night! Well worth the 2 hour round trip. Charming, energetic and fantastic as always. An intimate gig like that is such a rare treat nowadays and the new songs are sounding superb! Thank you 🙌

To all who signed up, the lucky winners have been emailed! We’ll see you tomorrow…

Very much enjoyed @realdcameron Uplifting and inspiring as always 🙌 #RKD7

That closing keynote! Only @sal2nd can get the balance right between heartwarming and hard-hitting. I’m so grateful that we got to share a ride and the conversations continued. @TLLeedsConf @BAMEedNetwork #iamarevolutionary #edmondalbius @DiverseEd2020
