Are you still relaxing? August is actually on, so this time I have only 5 online courses you may still catch up on and enjoy while the summer lasts.

Can fake identity be useful for teachers?
Today I'm going to show you something you might not have thought of using, and which proves that a teacher role for today is almost a secret agent!

Want to teach online? RPG comes to the rescue!
I want to share with you an idea of a free platform where you could practise skills required from a professional online teacher.

Twinkl Imagine - check, communicate and chill out
Some time ago I decided to join Twinkl group for bloggers who test this platform and share their ideas.

Oh, and homeschoolers.

How do we learn (and how can we use Padlet in the classroom)?
I don't even remember how I came across Padlet, but since one of my vices is being overly organised (I've realised I'm overly organised when I noticed how many people laugh at me or stare in disbelief once they see me do admin work), that was love at first sight – and obviously, as a properly infatuated teacher, I've decided to share my ideas on making Padlet an awesome tool in teaching both inside and outside the classroom.
