When introducing or discussing the British Value of individual liberty. "The granny who wasn't like other grannies" is a great book. It encapsulates the essence of this brilliantly. #YouGotThis

Using picture books can be a great way of engaging children in discussions around British values: use "The Election" can help with developing children's understanding of democracy and how it works in Britain. #YouGotThis

When children are distracted or not engaged with their work, my favourite question is "what should you be doing now?" Most children then get back down to work. You may get an "I don't know" which means you can reinforce & guide them back to the task. #YouGotThis

When using mini whiteboards to check pupil understanding, make sure you ask more than one question. Sometimes pupils can get a question right by chance. Taking the time to ask a second question can save you time later in the session. #YouGotThis

A puppet can be a great way to discuss situations that arise in school. I once had a puppet that had pushed another puppet over because they wouldn't let them play. The chn gave some helpful advice & came up with strategies that they/the puppet could use next time.
