Useful symbol with distance-learning students preferring to submit MS Office typed assingments. But, students, your teachers know when you’ve used the spell/grammar check in English work.
🤔 Ever wonder what this symbol (¶) is called? 🤷🏻♂️ It’s not “a backward P” or “the paragraph thingy”; it’s a *pilcrow*.

Delta DID ‘flatten the grass’, emails show https://t.co/zjgYbJ87Qq
#Schoolsweek via @Schoolsweek. Ok, that’s enough: we’ve had ‘leaking buckets’ & some accused of ‘flattening the grass’. Such implicit use of English lexicon!

Positive initiative for those who can afford internet access & tools. But, promote local libraries too for free book-lending - before we lose more of them!

Great, practical resource. Use to enlighten uninformed parents/carers about SSP - hear phonemes with example words. Thanks to LoE.
There are #free resources out there to help teach systematic phonics! Here is a link to an interactive chart that goes through all of the sounds of the basic phonograms. https://t.co/uM0yyOssNF

In-service CPD sessions were incredibly unproductive; if only tutors were taught what we glean now.
Hey teachers! This is a powerful video where teachers describe what they didn't know about reading and how learning about the reading science changed things for them and their students.
