Listening to my Y11s - the world is going to be an amazing place.

Settling back into home rhythms after an amazing #NZATE21 conference - got to meet some Twitter peeps in real life (again for some) which was just stunning Caitlin Funk Drive Resources Chris Waugh NZ Association for the Teaching of English alongside amazing keynotes, korero with colleagues, and stunning GF kai!

It was happy days for Melanie Lane who won the epic bag of kazillions of the best things a teacher could wish for (oh...I forgot to add wine sorry Melanie) from Drive Resources at the recent NZ Association for the Teaching of English conference! A hearty $250 worth of goodies. #nzate2021 #edchatnz

Writing Level 3 literary essays - good PLD - anyone keen to mark them for me ...

Morena #BFC630NZ not sure who will be up and around but I hope you all have an amazing first term day back.

Course (and unit) planning re the NCEA Review might feel daunting atm, but these Google Sheets with drop down menus will help A LOT. Available free to subscribers (head to my home page and join the tribe) in tomorrow's newsletter. Watch...then subscribe! youtu.be/WgHUBGrsuq8

Lockdown could provide time to think about planning with the NCEA review in mind. I introduce you to prototype V and it works a treat! See - driveresources.org/product-page/c… #NCEAreview #edchatnz

#NZBFC630 .... slightly early but hope you are all well ... first night in awhile my brain just wouldn't stop. All the thinking and feeling - hoping to turn it into production with a milky coffee now.

Check out Drive Resources for her newsletter and work .. . Some amazing resources, had a picture of me using it already ... But morning hair lol... Great PLD for teachers as well...

Finally got around to writing down some of my recent thoughts. The Song Book is our metaphor for our collective vision. thekiwiteacher.com/post/the-song-…
