A great choice of books 🥰
When I started working at my school 10 years ago there weren't enough books for a small #BlackHistoryMonth display...I love that I have too many now! There's also a display of chapter books & another of biography/history, but my #picturebooks are the biggest lenders #kidlituk #edusky

Over 384,000 primary school children joined together for our Black History Month Assembly, with very special guest, Swarzy Macaly!

Swarzy reminded the children to claim their own stories, stay true to themselves, and be curious to learn more about the people around them 💫💭

Children are exploring Black History Month, 'Reclaiming Narratives', and Penguin's book vending machine in Picture News Early Years this week.

They're also reading 'My Hair' by Hannah Lee 📚

The first teacherless classroom opened at David Game College in London. The classroom will use AI (artificial intelligence) and VR (virtual reality) headsets. Do you use any AI technology in your teaching? What could you now no longer teach without? 💻 💭
