Yesterday, I posted a Spanish Christmas commercial. Today, it is the turn of the Germans. This is Deutsche Telekom's offering for 2024 - Bubbles. I enjoyed the twist at the end! @deutschetelekom

If it's helpful to schools, below is the link to a year's worth of picturebook assembly suggestions that have a focus on empathy, diversity, equality and inclusion. All books I've used and loved as a teacher. padlet.com/Jon_Biddle/rea…

A school RfP policy in one tweet: 1) Time to read & be read to every day. 2) Time to talk about books together. 3) Let them read graphic novels, picturebooks, poetry, non-fiction, magazines, anything. 4) New books are an investment, not an expense. 5) Get a library & a librarian.

Books are for EVERY DAY, not just #WorldBookDay! And always remember, every reader has rights. We all enjoy reading different things in different ways. There's no such thing as 'good reading' and 'bad reading'. It's all reading, and it's all good! #literacy (Art: Quentin Blake)
