Fluency with poetry! Fluency is more than accuracy and rate - it’s also prosody. And it can be tied to content! I use @TimRasinski1 fluency development lesson to practice fluency 10-15 min a day. Poems are also tied to our content, including math!

I explain step by step why we should teach children WHAT to think, not HOW, and why @jordanbpeterson and @elonmusk are wrong on this. This leads to habit formation, which in turn, produces creativity💪🏽 Often clever ppl don’t get this point about kids and learning. ☺️

I’ve attempted to summarise the UNESCO AI Competency Framework for Teachers, released last week. I've taken the extensive, lengthy report and attempted to gather my take on the 10 key points, and areas of focus. If you have the time, I highly recommend reading the full report!

Not just because we are often asked why we are teaching something at this point: why this, why now? It’s also important that individual topics don’t end up in a curriculum cul de sac. You can access the four steps through the curriculum here buff.ly/4bH7IYx

BRILLIANT last question to @dylanwiliam 'What about differentiation?' His answer - DON'T! Get ALL students to a level of mastery... decide 20% that is 'desirable' but test on the 80% that is necessary for progression... build in contingency to lessons and series' of lessons.
