Loving our homemade pizza on Friday fun night! Two great recipes from @jowhitton (spelt base and the potato/almond base) easy, perfect and waste free as all the base ingredients are from @thesourcebulkfoods . And the other ingredients are locally bought. 😍😍😍 @harvesthubau @inglewoodorganic @countrymeatsdirect #waronwasteau #friday #pizza #fridayfunnight #glutenfree #homemade #family #sustainableliving #yum

Do you actually know how hard it is to find the perfect home? 🏡 🌲 🐨  The Gum family are in need of a new home - it needs to be safe, secure ,comfortable and of course somewhere amongst the gum trees - where will it be?🌲🏡🐨 Join Tania McCartney and Christina Booth as they take the Gum Family on a rocky adventure around Australia, visiting many different and amazing geological formations in Australia.🌲🏡🐨 They visit the 12 apostles, wave rock, Kata Tjuta and the Glasshouse mountains - just to name a few. At each place the look for the perfect spot for a new home admiring the different ways the rocks have formed and changed over time. Children have a great sense of wonderment and awe and this book arouses just that.🐨🐨🐨 After we read this book we pulled out a map of Australia, books about each place visited and jumped on the internet to learn more.🌲🏡🐨 The book does contain a map, small pieces of information and real photographs but the need to learn more was inspired - so we did just that!🐨🏡🌲 Many students knew about Uluru and the Three Sisters but that was about it - so thank you to The Gum Family - these students all now know a lot more about the country they live in.🐨🏡🌲 I also enjoyed pulling out old photographs of my trip around Australia to many of these places and reminiscing about how I felt in each location.🐨🌲🏡 check out my blog for some teaching ideas. #aussieteachertribe #thegumfamilyfindshome #taniamccartney #christinabooth #bookstagram #books4sustainability #gumtrees #geology #koala #australia #uluru #waverock #katatjuta #pinnacles #threesisters #teachersofinstagram #teachersfollowteachers #librariansofinstagram #literacy #australia #rocks #australian

Have you got any dinosaur pirates heading off to school today? This book was the perfect fit for a dinosaur loving boy who didn’t want to dress up or talk like a pirate OR listen to his parents offer him breakfast while talking like Pirates. #internationaltalklikeapirateday #arghh #mehearties #librariansofinstagram #aussieteachertribe #bookstagram #parenting #children #pirates #dinosaurs #breakfast #food #yum
