Have a listen to this AMAZING song written by a group of six Y6 children from @y6goldfinch class. They wanted to write a song about their friendship and growing up together. We are very proud of them all! soundcloud.com/norbridgemusi… @Norbridgeschool @nottsmusichub @musicalfutures

If you want children to use words well, read brilliant books with them, talk about about words in context, discuss why authors have used the words they have. Making time to talk about books and words is key.

Does anyone know if there is a pre-populated list of companies/charities that offer free workshops in schools? I know @Natures_Voice do and we’ve got a date for them but I want to give the children as many different experiences as possible! @FHTTandL @_anneingle @TeacherStarr

Does anyone plan their curriculum (English, topics and science etc) around a text or book per topic? What are the benefits/or things to avoid? Any examples of what planning looks like? Thanks 👍 #PrimaryRocks @PrimaryRocks1 @PR_English @_Reading_Rocks_ #curriculum

Does anyone else use PM Benchmarking to assess reading? Do you find it matches up with national tests? Particularly interested in year 2...

I visit schools every week, so I know kids still LOVE reading - as long as you give them things they want to read! #literacy @gulliversbks
