I have an article and video on the ABC website today 😊So excited about this piece! My article is sharing what it is like to live with chronic fatigue syndrome, and the video is of a poem called ‘Enough,’ about the impact of #CFS on my sense of worth. abc.net.au/news/2023-12-08/d…

We did a ‘stock and flow’ of our class culture, then created a word cloud of all the positives. Students are clearly loving their specialist science lessons!

Students loved SURF Maths’ Nearest to One, then we changed it to Nearest to Zero to practice subtracting fractions. Most students estimated, some calculated, but again @MathigonOrg was so helpful for giving a visual! #MTBoS

We’ve just discovered the polypad on @MathigonOrg and I don’t know who’s more obsessed, me or the students! Brilliant visual for @reSolveMBI’s fraction benchmarks task.

Yeah we said it. Racism is the root of all of this. Needs-based funding now. #AliceSprings @OurWatchAus @AmandaRishworth @AlboMP @1800RESPECT @NTVorg @ANROWS @FullStopAus @LindaBurneyMP @AWAVA_women sbs.com.au/nitv/article/opin…

I've lived in #AliceSprings for 13 years & feel safe living here. There are issues here, ones that have been around for a long time with deep, complex reasons for them. What's happening now is sadly the same pattern we've seen for most of that time - reactionary responses (1/4)

First Nations women in 'homicide capital' say they're too scared to call the police

NT Police Minister Kate Worden says officers are doing the best they can under difficult circumstances, but women with first-hand experience of violence see things very differently.

I wrote this piece #IThoughtYouSaidYouWereSick for @SelcouthStation on my experience with chronic fatigue syndrome. It looks at what CFS is like, microaggressions that people with long-term illnesses often face & the necessity of compassion. #CFS #memoir #compassion #illness

I almost didn’t introduce my class to ratio tables today (it’s nearly the end of the year/I’ve left it too late/I don’t want to confuse them with another strategy). I’m SO GLAD I did. Some of my struggling students had light bulb moments and maths success!! 😍 thanks @pwharris
