NY Times reports: A book club in California spent 28 years reading “Finnegans Wake,” by James Joyce. Now, it’s starting over. Not an easy read but well worthwhile. Best done collaboratively!

Language develops 🌱when massive amounts of comprehensible or understandable input is given AND low stress opportunities for output are offered. 🌷 Every day. Every student. Every class. Not just once a day during ELD time. 🤷🏻‍♀️ #teachingideas #teachingresources #teachingkids

Well done The Guardian. And it's not just money. MATs often v controlling of curriculum too. Multiple schools teaching exactly the same. Deprofessionalising for teachers + in extreme cases leads to 1000s of students learning from sub-standard material theguardian.com/commentisfree/…

Oracy is the verbal equivalent of literacy. Listening is to reading, talking is to writing. All four need to be developed together in a planned oracy/literacy curriculum. It is not a fad or a strategy: it is fundamental learning.

We believe that playful classroom conversations evolve into purposeful and empowering dialogue: oracy in the curriculum. Our newsletter is updated and we are promoting the next LATE London Teachers 📚✏️ conference on 6th July. Hope to see you there!

Query Is it true in Leighton Buzzard that the blizzards are a hazard for the wizards who are gathered with their lizards who have staggered where the buzzards with their gizzards hover overhead haphazard? Or not?

I'm watching a little person learning to read. Everything that Charlotte Hacking & Dominic Wyse say in their brilliant book on reading is happening before my eyes. The double helix model should be a game-changer, with reading & writing intimately connected & meaning at its heart.
