Had the amazing opportunity to try some workshop ideas with authors this weekend. Thanks @vashti_hardy @JamesENicol @GeorgePoles @kminty @CRSains @AnthonyJBurt @JanDunning1 Email via website to register interest in Bath-based writing sessions in September thelearningbridge.co.uk
The 'you choose' story workshop was great! Thanks @the2steves for your inspiration-the kids were excited that you'd tweeted! You can see the stories coming together-plans, writing and even illustrations. The lift-the-flap mechanism meant it was easier to keep track of the plots!
Another Maths Marvels creative workshop complete. This one was all about logical thinking. We got through a lot fun things!!
My boys saw this pile of books got so excited. Think they’ve snaffled two each to take on cub camp this weekend!!
@the2steves @franklinwatts Ready for my @thebridge2learn kids’ writing workshop on Sunday. Using your books as inspiration to write our own ‘Your Choice’ stories. Any top planning tips for the young authors?
July #mathsmarvels workshop for kids who love maths is now up on website. Last session on binary code went down a storm! This session is all about logic. thelearningbridge.co.uk
Signs should be clear and not over-loaded with information. Unless they do this... Its worth reading to the end!
Tell kids not to worry about their spelling when starting to write. Its more important to get their ideas down. Someone (or dictionary/spellchecker) can check spellings, but can't get ideas out of their head! Use the most ambitious words you know! #amwriting #TLBwritingtips
First #mathsmarvels workshop @thelearningbridge today. We were talking computers with binary numbers. Puzzles, patterns and The Binary Rubber Glove of DOOM. We even did some sewing (threading our binary birthdays or names in beads!). Action packed and nobody wanted to leave!

Did you know that collaboration with others is one of the most motivating factors in successful writing for children? No surprise then that the kids at this weekend's Scribblers workshop loved being able to discuss their ideas and chat while writing. #kidswritingtips
One of this weekend's Scribbler kids gave the course a 9.5 out of 10.
"What would have made it a 10?" I asked.
"If Mum had remembered to pack me a snack."
Can't argue with that.
@JamesENicol AMAZING glyph poems from my magic workshop yesterday
Ardra
Ruby, red, amber, orange.
Burning, radiating, raging.
Bad-tempered, adventurous.
Power to destroy life.
Bria
Transparent, white, blue, grey.
Floating, wafting, whistling.
Secretive, shy.
Power to carry life.
Fabulous first kids' creative writing workshop today! Best kid quotes: "It's like school but 100 times better!" "Inspiring, magical, incredible and FUN!" and "I feel like I'm better at writing now!" Thanks guys - you were FABULOUS! #bathkids #writing #kidswritingrocks
