My daughter has a new PYP unit coming up investigating how humans impact local environment. Together we designed her first survey123, went & investigated the park & she wrote her first StoryMap! Not bad for a kid just turned 7.

Great lesson today using translanguaging. Statements given to students. Worked in silence for 10 minutes as they translated to English, drew an image to rep statement & then put together as group cartoon. This lesson introduced our assessment for Türkiye earthquake #geographyteacher #EAL

Decoding is an important skill for bilingual learners. It also makes me think - who are the notes for? How are you decoding as part of translanguaging in your lessons? #geographyteacher #EAL #bilingual #multilingual

Looks chaotic doesn’t it. But did you know Chinese workers get 2 hour napping breaks at lunch? Fast fashion is awful but remember to explain to students that we need to be critical of everything we see and not take things at face value.

Great to see my latest co-authored article out in Teaching Geography. It’s really important to look at how we are exploring theories when migration is such a hot political topic around the world. Read a copy here portal.geography.org.uk/journal/view...

Another one done. The geographical descriptions were exquisite and would be great for the classroom. Wasn’t my favourite but still enjoyed it.
