Day 24 and thanks to @brianmosespoet.bsky.social for todays inspiration and songs that have titles that are questions. #FebMusicChallenge25

I just loved it โ„๏ธ

A must-have for all schools. Brilliantly written and illustrated. It is accessible and engaging, which will appeal to the young minds in my classroom. Loved it. ๐ŸŽ‰๐Ÿง  @thereaderteacher.bsky.social @readingrocks.bsky.social

World Book Day has the most sustained impact when it's used as a springboard for developing a school culture of reading. This year, we're exploring Daniel Pennac's Rights of the Reader (beautifully illustrated by Quentin Blake). Each class will develop their own set of reading rights and share them.

Sorry for being late to the Paper Dragons party but wow, The Fight for the Hidden Realm is fantastic! Such an incredible, intricate world that I felt truly immersed in ๐Ÿ‰ Out now for 9+. Thanks @hachettechildrens.bsky.social ๐Ÿ“– #kidlituk checkemoutbooks.wordpress.com/2025/02/19/p...

Day 9 and #FebMusicChallenge25 is inspired by #NationalReadInTheBathDay. So we would like your nice relaxing in the bath songs and a song that tells a great story (If you donโ€™t have a bath you will have to imagine)

A brilliant debut from Jacob North. Full of adventure and excitment. This is going to be very popular indeed โ„๏ธ๐ŸงŠ @simonkidsuk.bsky.social @readingrocks.bsky.social @openuniversity.bsky.social @thereaderteacher.bsky.social

In 2025, if you like an artists work online, share it. I see AI generated art getting thousands of views, while hard-working creatives go unnoticed. Artists don't exist in a vacuum, creative people need the oxygen of support to find their audience. Find what you love, and shout about it. ๐Ÿ‘โค๏ธ #edusky

As part of our toy study, our youngest pupils in Oak class have been painting pictures. Meet 71 year old Eric the teddy bear ๐Ÿป #thisisAP #art #wellbeing @albrightcentre.bsky.social

Day 6 and nearly a week in already, the standard of choices this year has been brilliant, playlists are so good. Today looks and pure and simple songs, just a voice or voices and one or two instruments. My own selection below. #FebMusicChallenge25

Day 5 and today we want your choices of songs that you wish you had written. My own selection below, I have to be honest it took me ages to choose this one! #FebMusicChallenge25

Day 4 and with a nod towards #Childrensmentalhealth week we are looking at songs linked feelings, good, bad and inbetween. I may be a little late with updates today as I have training until 6 #FebMusicChallenge25

"I feel passionately that children should have access to books from an early age. It normalises things for them." Here's how some of our great partners in Cardiff use BookTrust's dual language resources to support families arriving in Wales as refugees: www.booktrust.org.uk/news-and-fea...

'Know yourself and grow yourself' ๐ŸŒฑ what a wonderful session from Mrs W, planting and talking about mental health and well-being. The pupils love the weekly garden activities ๐ŸŒฑ @albrightcentre.bsky.social #wellbeing #childrensmentalhealthweek #gardening #Ican

Just a post to say a huge thank you to everyone who borrowed books I've worked on from libraries this year, and to PLR which ensures that creators get paid every time that happens. Somehow my books were loaned almost 43000 times, which is a figure I'm still trying to wrap my head around. โœจ๐Ÿ“š
