*New* Australian Teachers' Collaborative Blog

Have you checked out the new Australian Teachers' Collaborative Blog yet?  If not you can do so by clicking here.

I am very excited to be part of this amazing group of Aussie educators sharing ideas.

You can check out my first post on higher order thinking and the teaching of reading comprehension in the middle years here.

We aim to make the blog posts as practical as possible.

On the main page at the moment you can read:

Paula's post on helping writers to succeed with plenty of practical tips and links.

Jem's post on transition to school and her showbags for this.

Christie's post on cyberbullying which is a growing concern for many parents and educators.

Check out the archives for other terrific blog posts with many links to practical ideas and tips.

To all my Aussie teaching friends, only two more sleeps until Summer holidays :)
