We've updated the googlesite so that the Walkthrus links in each series are arranged according to topic rather than by book volume. Take a look.

🙌🏼 who’d have thought it eh? Kids do better when an expert teaches them some stuff. I’m glad we are at a point in the profession where this is accepted. Twas not always thus.

Any SchoolCloud users got through to their support team and had any updates/timescales on their server and sync problems? Been on hold on a couple of calls for a long time.

This is unreal 🤯 I just used #ArtificialIntelligence #AI to translate my voice & sync my lips to give the impression I speak Spanish 🇪🇸/German 🇩🇪 fluently (I don't btw). I used HeyGen Video Translate BETA & my mind is blown. ⬇️

And this is another reason why I praise Adam (and his book) when I can! Do fewer things better and focus on what matters in that moment.

I know from experience with Digital Tech in Wales (already online) that this is not as straight forward as many commentators think. There will need to be an enormous infrastructure change/space/devices to do this on a large scale. Technology doesn’t always mean better.

Was sent the most brilliant BBC Wales News clip this week, of a past pupil of the school I now work at. Innovating in ways I could only dream of & a pioneer in his field. The interviewer asks him a question of what advice would you give to 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿, his answer: “Invest in education” 🤦🏻‍♂️

That’s a remarkable 5-year shift, and surely a nod to the nationwide societal pressures and associated contextual impacts of the last few years, beyond school gates 🤔

Staff handout to accompany CPD on reading strategies. Can anyone have a quick look and see if I have made any glaring errors/missed anything big? It will accompany modelled examples of Frayer Models and guided reading. Nikki Sullivan Alex Quigley Greg Thornton
