[image] Facebook reminded me that 8 years ago, my school said that we had to make engaging ‘3D classrooms’ for our topics and I spent hours making this circulatory system with paper chains going all around the room.

[image] If you're a Year 6 teacher, these 'badly completed' 2016-2025 KS2 arithmetic and reasoning papers may be useful over the coming weeks! They feature common mistakes and errors for children to identify. Crucially, not every answer is wrong!

[image] One year on from making two big decisions to step down from SLT (Assistant Head) and also to go down from full time to 0.6. It’s been a weird year! I’ve not done part time before, and it’s been a big adjustment.

[image] I made one of these a few years ago as a visual revision aid for Y6 SATs, but I thought I'd give it an update! It's freely available here: #edutwitter #maths #year6teachers #primaryteachers #primaryteaching #year6teaching

[image] I’ve generated some visual summaries for you all and collated all the key links in one place. Here you go- Share and repost.

[image] I personally never found much to challenge my more confident year 6 mathematicians, so I created these - there are 4 levels of them. I’ve explained my thought process when completing them, but you might have your own way! 1/2

[image] Great teachers don’t just teach subjects — they inspire confidence and curiosity. They build relationships that make students feel seen, valued, and capable. Every lesson is an opportunity to encourage growth, resilience, and kindness. Here’s to teachers!

[text] Please send positive vibes for those of us who still have a week to go. On top of this, I have to pack up my whole classroom.

[text] So children and wife are still at school today. So I have a day to myself. What have I got planned? Just been in the garden. Washing out. Hoovering. Need to get car cleaned. Hair cut. Go to the bank. It’s called LIFEMIN. Life Admin. The stuff we don’t have time for.
