An excellent point. While traditional conventions often emphasise the orthographic alignment with the intended message, subtle links are common; there's no universal rule against explicitly stating the theme, as long as it contributes meaningfully to the poem's intent and aesthetic.

Alt: Plain: Students in a classroom tear pages from their poetry textbooks, following their teacher’s instruction. Expressive: In a softly lit classroom, young students grip their poetry books, the sound of paper ripping echoing through the air. Torn pages flutter like fragile leaves, symbolising the breaking of old rules as the students’ faces shift from hesitation to quiet resolve. The atmosphere is charged with rebellion and discovery, each page removed marking a step towards independent thought and creative freedom..

It’s a powerful testament to the DW-CONNECT framework: when we create a safe space, lead with compassion, respect a student’s unique way of thinking, and build on their incredible strengths, there are no limits.

Progress always trumps perfection.

We'll be weaving this knowledge into multiple subjects including Science, Maths, English, Aboriginal Language, essay writing, and public speaking.

Seeing that spark ignite has me so excited for our upcoming lessons.

I've developed a new plan exploring the deep scientific knowledge of First Nations healing and medicine (you can see a sneak peek in the next post!)

To witness that blossoming of confidence and self-belief is everything.

Not to mention their extreme disappointment with “only” a B in Japanese!

Fast forward to today. The same student is now consistently achieving A-B grades for engagement seeing their marks soar across the board.

Just recently, they earned their FIRST EVER 'A' in any subject... & it was in Maths!

We decided to put the standard curriculum aside and connect through storytelling, using my favourite Dreamtime story of Tiddalick the Frog.

Look at this wonderful acrostic poem they created!

This was a moment where connection truly met with content.

Last year during NAIDOC week, I was working with a “difficult” student.

Diagnosed with #ASD, #ADHD, #Dysgraphia, and #Dyslexia, they were facing immense challenges with bullying and were so disengaged they were close to leaving the school system.

I also run "Sonnet Sleuths," my blog for poetry analysis & #SciComm.

I’m keen to connect with pet pawrents, fellow educators, parents, & advocates in the #Neurodivergent & #Disability communities.

Let's chat (& share pet pics!)

It’s about building confidence & providing the specific tools students need to succeed, always leading with compassion & empathy.

My love of lifelong learning sees me in my final year of a Master of Education in Indigenous pedagogies & inclusive strategies.

So, what makes my approach different?

My tutoring is built upon my DW-CONNECT framework, blending trauma-informed practice with Universal Design for Learning. I focus on creating a safe space where progress, not perfection, is the goal.

My mission is simple: to be the empathetic, patient, and insightful guide I needed when I was younger.

I help students who learn differently not just to survive their education, but truly thrive.

Oh and came across this the other day when I sick going through unread emails.

So happy other scientists are finally talking out loud about this problematic phylogrouping method.

Would have been nice to have my own major paper about it published back in 201X.

Still, we press on.
