Welcome to my blog...

...that started through a request to record some of our work; will anyone actually look?

When Tim Rylands came to call part 2


This text is stolen from Tim's Blog!
Thanks for a great days learning for staff and pupils.


A return trip to Normanby Primary School, in Middlesbrough, for more investigating of fascination, and learning.
Our last trip saw us experimenting with digital, and analog, ways of creating experiences. We went on a virtual rollercoaster alongside some of the brave mums and dads; we made fire pits and cooked food; we did lots that deserved a ripple.
Today, we ventured back in to some virtual domains, and became even more analytical about the tools, and techniques, we use as teachers.
Alongside the analog methods of recording ideas, the teachers kept running observations, using Padlet while working with the Year 6 pupils in the morning and the Year 2 pupils in the afternoon.
They were looking out for all of the little techniques, and methods, we all used, to encourage children to develop their ideas further, and take off and fly.
The children of Normanby are up for challenges, and really did incredibly well. A credit to the inventive teaching, and learning, experiences the school provides.
