So far my class this year are a bit flat. There's a few that love to contribute and will dominate, but the majority aren't really getting stuck in yet. Today, I gave them a video from these guys @makethinkingfun and straight away nearly everyone had something to say. Brilliant!

Taking a philosophical approach and debating the big questions within our broad, thematic curriculum is just one way in which Weston Green School strives to “Make The Difference.” Today we welcomed The Philosophy Man P4C @makethinkingfun who delivered inspiring workshops.

Y6-8 were treated to a philosophy day by “The Philosophy Man” where they engaged in some aesthetics, metaphysics, ethics and some good old fashioned debating. An excellent day. Thanks to @makethinkingfun

@makethinkingfun Tom with @ReceptionLHS - is it a good or bad idea to keep a lion as a pet? Would you rather be chased by a bear or kissed by a monkey? Can you use a because? @HeadLHS

@makethinkingfun thank you for this great gathering - our G4 thinkers @ISF_Florence really enjoyed the conversations. One of them said to me this afternoon: “I can’t stop thinking about those questions!”
Over 71 classes and over 2000 students joined us for World Philosophy Day Live this morning! Thank you to everyone who took part on juicy questions like "Is it possible to lie to yourself?" and "Can animals be naughty?" Great philosophising!

“Nasıl uyaran bulacağız, nasıl oturuma çevireceğiz” en çok sorulan soru. Cevabım hep “bir yerden sonra her şeyi uyaran olarak görüp kafanızda oturuma çeviriyorsunuz” Bakın bir tweet’i alıp nasıl oturuma çevirmiş Jason ve Tom @makethinkingfun #p4c #çocuklarlafelsefe

It can be committed, high energy, playful and responsive. It can air both sides and promote ‘tenacious disagreement’ - Jason Buckley @makethinkingfun #SophiaNetwork2022
