Help Natasha Rook bid for John Parr's WWI medal gofund.me/86b01045 If successful this will be donated to my old school, which is situated very close to the site of John Parr’s death. Exciting opportunity for the school. Thanks in advance all!

Great thread here, A hugely valuable concept for teachers to consider.

Great morning today working with colleagues from Dhekelia School in Cyprus and Kim on Responsive Teaching. Harry Fletcher-Wood’s work a key focus. Kick starting professional learning community project. Interested to hear from anyone who’s explored this concept as a project.

Some nice words from my pal Peter J. LeBlanc here: highperformingeducator.com/peter-leblanc/… particularly for those interested in the idea of ‘visible leadership.’

Modeling the ‘danger points.’ Use of a ‘hazard board.’ ‘Memory is the residue of what you think hard about.’ Hinge questions to probe. (Loads more - just deciding now on a ‘plus one!’) This was fantastic! Thank you Mark Burns

Very good explanation. 👇
