A nice recent blog post from Michael Fordham struck a chord with me.
In it, he talks about the value of knowing stuff that is related to other stuff... and the party in his head.
The more I read, the more I know, and the more connections come into my mind when I start sitting down to write or plan a lesson or resource.
This can be a problem for a teacher as we need to stick to the point to avoid overloading our students' brains as they process one ot two new pieces of information. Give this a read and see what you think.
