Popped into the local bookshop earlier. I was browsing and suddenly heard my teacher name being called.

A family from school had just been looking in the children’s section.

“We were just talking about you and your recommendations!” the mum says.

I am already excited to be delivering Monday’s staff meeting on reading for pleasure. I’ll be sharing @teresacremin.bsky.social research, using my MA studies and sharing a whopping set of new books thanks to our parent association and @bookwagonuk.bsky.social 💛📚

Well, some unexpected snow this morning unsurprisingly led to excitement at the end of another thrilling chapter of Kick.

The pure joy on the children’s faces when we went outside 💛

This morning, I’ve made the move to #EduSky 👋

I am teaching Year 5 in September, so will continue to be talking about that, books and potentially continuing academic study, focusing on reading comprehension.
