Nush and the Stolen Emerald by @jasinbath (front cover by David Dean) is a fantastically exciting adventure story set in Jaisalmer and London during the 19th century. Touches on many areas, family dynamics, equality, colonialism, with a very deft touch. A great book for Y5/6.
To celebrate the publication of the superb How to Be Free by @chaletfan (cover by Thy Bui), I'm giving away a set of the entire series. To be in with a chance of winning, simply share this post and follow @PushkinChildren by 8:00pm on Tuesday 23rd April. Good luck! #giveaway
The next @OpenUni_RfP @The_UKLA conference takes place in June. A superb line-up, with author keynotes by @HGold_author & @EarlyTrain, plus workshops from @TeresaCremin, @sam_creighton, @miss_csquirrell, @MuchAdoALJ, @ImogenM16, @TobiasHayden & more. Info: ourfp.org/2024/04/18/rea…
Delighted to reveal the Key Stage Two event for Empathy Day Live! @EmpathyLabUK's FREE online festival. On 6 June, you can boost your empathy skills with @HGold_author, @jeffreykboakye & @MrEagletonIan through interactive activities! More: empathylab.uk/empathy-day #EmpathyDay
If any of our Year 6 pupils or parents are getting worried about the move to secondary school, we have several copies of Moving Up! by @cfoleypoetry available for you to borrow. It's full of handy advice, addressing the most common fears in a really relatable and accessible way.
Empathy Day is a highlight of our school year and something we always look forward to. You can register now for this year's event (Thursday 6th June). The first 300 schools to sign up will all receive a free empathy-boosting book. Further information here: empathylab.uk/empathy-day
Love @ImogenM16's fantastic example of practice 'Graphic Novels are Real Books!' on the @OpenUni_RfP site. Improving teacher knowledge of them is essential and her school have worked really hard to do it. Lots of good ideas to take away. Do have a read. ourfp.org/eop/graphic-no…
I've spent time today updating my #ReadingForPleasure Padlet with some new bits and pieces (articles, ideas for staff meetings, teaching resources, book recommendations for assemblies, etc). Hopefully it's of use to people. All shares appreciated! padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/rea…
Just finished writing an article about the importance of reading aloud to children and how essential it is to find the right book. Took the chance to update the list below with more of my current favourites to share with Key Stage Two. uk.bookshop.org/lists/key-stag…
Hooray! It's about time we had another book by the amazing @emcarrollauthor. Love the front cover from @DJTerrazzini. This comes out in the summer. #TheHoudiniInheritance
A few years ago, one of our pupils took part in the CLiPPA poetry award (organised by @clpe1) and performed at the National Theatre. Her mum told me recently it was highlight of her entire time at primary school. Do sign up to shadow this year's awards: clpe.org.uk/poetry/CLiPPA
I love these! They would look amazing in any school library or classroom.

It is #WorldPoetryDay but we should really be celebrating poetry every day in schools. There's a write-up on the @OpenUni_RfP site about how to introduce #PoemOfTheDay to a class. Once it's embedded, it basically runs itself. ourfp.org/eop/poem-of-th…
Years 5 and 6 thoroughly enjoyed the visit by Mrs Hirst from @LynnGroveAc this morning. She demonstrated several exciting experiments involving fire and chemicals, which all caused gasps of excitement.
There are a handful of children's authors who automatically get promoted to the top of the tbr pile. @theLucyStrange is one of them. She writes thrilling, almost unputdownable, stories full of atmosphere and intrigue. I can't wait to get started so see you later.
Our pupils went away very happy from yesterday's #WorldBookDay book swap.
Thoroughly enjoyed writing this blog for @FarshoreBooks about why I believe reading aloud to children is so important in the classroom. I've also included some of my favourite stories to share with a class. #ReadingForPleasure #Edutwitter farshore.co.uk/how-to-make-cl…
