The flexibility in our profession is second to none. Today we formed a 19th class and the adaptability in my team and indeed our whole school was amazing. Can not wait to see the brilliant things to follow this semester!

Something I will be using in my lessons next week

It's ok to listen and learn when you don't know. Children are not the only people that can learn. One of my favourite things to do is learn and question without having to give input!

Learning with technology is a progressional thing. How are you going to progress your pedagogy this year to benefit your students?

I am looking forward to working alongside Explore and Soar to discuss how we can strengthen the relationships between our services. Therapy works best when we work together to progress our student(s). Can't wait to hear ideas, offer suggestions and build together.

I'm looking forward to a new collaboration tomorrow to see how we can further support students by better building our relationships with third party providers!

Today I discussed how schools and service providers can better work together to fulfil the goals of our Ss. Networking beyond our own groups opens doors for new ways for our Ss. What conversation are you going to be part of that will make you think 'how could I do this better'?

Looking forward to leading PL this afternoon about bringing learning to life using 3D design and printing. Engaging students by bringing the virtual to reality shows better knowledge acquisition and decreased resistance to learning. How do you engage your students?

I find it weird that being spoilt when I was a kid was being given processed food and technology to entertain you... Now my kids are called spoilt for having fresh food and doing things as a family.

Teaching is an interesting profession where when you are on a day off you still find yourself doing something work related.

Book week is that something a little extra special for the kids and my team showed up with James and the giant peach. I love that I get to work with professionals that can still bring the fun for the kids!

What is the purpose of a school? A q I recently asked some parents. As a society we are blurring the lines of purpose. Educational institutions are being more commonly used as child care with education as a side benefit. When we do not focus on education first, are we succeeding?

Education is a continually evolving industry and we cannot afford to be stagnant. Here are my current long term professional readings. What books are you reading?

Teaching is the most rewarding and versatile profession. One moment you are leading a classroom, the next you are throwing chalk to celebrate the end of the year. Silly and serious - it what makes you love the job ♥️

And with that, I have achieved the next learning milestone. Master of Education ✅
