I spent an afternoon at Sonning Common Primary School<\/a> – in the Year 2 class of Matt Lovegrove<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Firstly, Matt invited me to teach his class – and we discussed what we<\/span> I might do using twitter direct messages. When we agreed that we’d do a session on transition from KS1 to Ks2 – I thought that Matt might have had a lesson plan for me to pick up and adapt – but… rather wonderfully, he didn’t!!!<\/p>\n

Now, I know that there are those of you who are wincing at this. I know I would have. No clear plan? No APP linked activities and outcomes?<\/p>\n

Matt knew what he wanted to cover with the kids (to deal with the hopes and fears of his class as they prepared to move ‘up’ the school) but he gave me almost total control over how to deliver this on the day – with little or no preparation (except the vague idea to use wallwisher).<\/p>\n

So, how did I do? Well, really you should ask Matt and his amazing class<\/p>\n

However, the good news is that my classroom management and ‘teacher craft’ – though rusty – was more or less still there.<\/p>\n

The main reflection is that that released to be creative, and allowed to fail in a safe environment felt great, for me and for the kids.<\/p>\n

I have been invited to go back and I am looking forward to it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
