“Three things in human life are important: the first is to be kind; the second is to be kind; and the third is to be kind.” Henry James Kindness has the potential to influence a moment, a mood, a day… Kindness is free. Kindness matters. 🧡 #kindness #positivity #gratitude

As well as the 'invisible' children in schools, there are also the 'invisible' members of staff. They can go unnoticed and unappreciated because they do their job quietly and effectively, and always hold up their end without a fuss. They're often the glue that keeps a school together.

CHOICE is key to becoming a reader. When kids are given a wide range of books to choose from, and are allowed to choose freely - THEY READ! I don’t believe in “reluctant readers” - just readers who haven’t yet found the right books for them. So it’s our job to help them find those books! #literacy

I don't believe in "good reading" & "bad reading". Comic books, graphic novels, manga, picture books, joke books, sports reports, all kinds of poetry & prose: it's all reading, and it's all good! Let kids read for pleasure - and they'll be readers FOREVER! #reading #literacy (Art: Bill Watterson)
