I had been hoping to give a two minutes presentation at TeachMeet SLF 2017 this year, but had a calendar clash with parent\u2019s night.<\/p>\n

Teachmeet is famously aimed at giving an chance to teachers to present as opposed to educational experts 😉. Now I\u2019ve been returned to the teaching fold I was looking forward to being a authentic voice again. Not that I was going to talk about classroom practice, I am still rediscovering my feet, but it would be nice to have \u2018Classroom Teacher\u2019 on a slide1<\/sup><\/a>.<\/p>\n

I am fascinated by the ways that we share and talk about our work. I enjoy reading Twitter but love reading blog posts more. I was planning to frame this talk around a wonderful tweet<\/a>:<\/p>\n

‘Good works’ @MrMcMahonTPS & P7sThornlie. Deep thinking, critical reflection, positive action–“to generate possible worlds” #Bruner #Friere<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a>
\nand my response <\/a>:<\/p>\n

I love the inspiring tweets celebrating the work going on at Thornlie. Selfishly wish there were blog posts with details, recipes & more.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

I later posted this:<\/p>\n

But tweets are like poppies spread, You seize the flow’r,<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
