#1MinCPD

Our #1MinCPD this week was Talking Tokens: a way to encourage the quiet children in your class to talk… and to get those ones who tend to dominate class discussions to think a bit more before they speak.

Did you see?

Number 2 in our top 5 this week was our first post by A Teacher, our anonymous blogger:

I’m a teacher and sometimes I’m a combination of more than one voice. I’m sharing the things that are going on in our schools – things that need to be talked about and brought to your attention via anonymity – meaning I’m safe from attribution and can therefore speak freely and openly. Please don’t be offended.
