Get Ready For School: Teacher's Pack
I've read through my blog (almost 200 posts!) and found all the notes that may be an inspiration before you embark on yet another year-long school adventure. All of the ideas were tested on human beings and all of us not only survived, but had quite a lot of fun.

Roll your summertime with kids! (Role-Playing Teaching: Part 16)
I want to give you some reasons why playing RPGs with children may be a great idea for everyone involved - especially now, with summer break approaching.
