Fabulous to work with @greenshawtrust.bsky.social yesterday and explore how ambitious texts can support our early writers to develop composition (oral & written) using Opening Doors principles and strategies. @openingdoors.bsky.social

Thanks Claire @greenshawtrust.bsky.social for asking me to speak in Gloucestershire today! It was a privilege to give the key-note and engage with so many teachers opening doors for their budding writers.

Lovely to see the exploration of crafting effective non-fiction writing!

It’s beautiful! We had the excellent Patrice Baldwin come in to work with us last year and she took us to Story Land. This would be absolutely perfect to have alongside that sort of visit. Poems we know, poems we’re writing now and poems waiting to be written so they can have wings to fly.
