Bollin Valley Ranger Umar & Ranger Ed were recently coppicing on the Lymm Railway Line. Hazel coppicing is used to manage woodlands sustainably, allowing hazel trees to regenerate & produce multiple stems from a single stump. This management also promotes biodiversity.

20 years ago, a storm of historic fury hit the Mississippi Coast, and at the heart of the storm stood the Armed Forces Veterans Home in Gulfport, along with meteorologist @JimCantore. Watch #Katrina20, Sunday, August 24, on The Weather Channel.

As well as writing words, I've been producing a whole bunch of brand new diagrams for my latest book, Teacher Hacks Geography. Here's a sneak peek at one of them. I'd love to to see if we can make blank versions available for download. Is that something worth exploring?

A brilliant day spent with our HoDs and LPs of geography—reviewing and evolving our new Year 7 curriculum, and getting stuck into planning for the new Year 8 curriculum launching this September. Days like this remind me just how powerful subject communities are in driving meaningful curriculum development. #CurriculumLeadership #SubjectCommunity @astreaacademies #CPD #geography #geographyteacher
