I had a few questions asked of how to add to your blog, so thought I would share this. Hope it helps. And Thank you Loom for making it so easy.
Welcome to my professional learning blog. I aim to share my learning experiences and how they help me to improve the classroom environment and how I teach. I look forward to seeing how my learning and development will impact on the acceleration of learning for my students.

DFI 2019 Gissy
Thank you for sharing the day with me and letting me join your cohort. Even from one of the drivers' seats there was so much to learn.
The first for me to try was Boomerang - something I have hear lots about and have never managed to find (usually because I thought it was an extension and was looking in play store). But is was one to google and add 'boomerang for gmail'. very helpful as I am one of those who loves to work when everyone is in bed, now I can send emails are a sensible and resonable time so not to disturb others during there down time. Unlike a few friends of mine who use boomerang to send at the most un-opportune time.
The Calendar short cuts I have heard about them before but having them reinforced and now having played with them how can we go wrong switching from day to month to year in a flash. Even search for a day in the future so simple.
D-day M- month Y-year G-go to T-today C-new calendar event S-settings A-agenda
Loom I will getting this added to the class chromes so we can use it and then attempt to trim and cut what we are filming.

Writing interesting Stories - Paragraph Starters
At the beginning of the year we write about ourselves. All children can write about themselves and or their dreams.
To encourage them to write I show them some story starters, these can be used to start paragraphs or sentences but the hook the reader and help to keep the reader interested through the story.
We had a lot of fun writing a paragraph at a time using different hooks to keep the momentum of the story going.
