Just wow! It was so incredible to see such confident, knowledgeable and informed young men sharing their research and expressing their understanding of ‘Who We Are’ through PrepTalks, creative writing, visual arts, music and drama. Well done to all involved. #prepx19 #pypx

Thinking Routines/activities vs ‘making thinking routine’ for learners. Having all students engage in the thinking that successful learners do automatically. #pzsyd #visiblethinking

‘Unwitting undermining’. Am I turning a watering hole into a campfire? If I walk away and the thinking/learning stops, was I doing too much of the lifting? Thanks @RonRitchhart ܁ 💙 EIoṉ Musⱪ ܄ for helping me to reflect on my role in #makingthinkingvisible #pzsyd

Is it Time to Drop ‘Finding the Main Idea’ and Teach Reading in a New Way? edutopia.org/article/it-tim…

Brilliantly illustrates the joy of working in a great team.

Great inspiration from Dr Misty Adoniou for teaching writing by maintaining the thrill and will to write. Purpose over structure. ‘Don’t let go of the ‘will’ and ‘thrill’ for the sake of the ‘skill’. #PETAA2020

Dr Misty Adoniou: "Every school must stop buying programs and instead invest in professional learning for their teachers." #PETAA2020

Writing = transformation of self, others, communities and systems. Grammar and skills only exist within the bigger end game. Fill students’ language repertoire through mentor texts to expand literacy repertoire - Dr Misty Adoniou. #PETAA2020

My most ‘enjoyable’ recent reading for ‘pleasure’ moments have been non-fiction...eg ‘Dark Emu’; ‘See What You Made Do?’ Pleasurable? Not really. Transformative? Definitely. I hope I can pass on this ‘joy’ to my students.

Thank you #PZAUS @RonRitchhart @FionaEvans20 for an energising day exploring Cultures of Thinking in Action. We can have the toolset and the skillset but we must also advance our mindset (attitudes, beliefs and expectations) to incentivise our actions.
