Hi ,
It looks like you're using an ad blocker.



The revenue generated from the adverts on the site is a critical part of our funding - and it's because of these ads that I can offer the site for free. But using the site for free AND blocking the ads doesn't feel like a great thing to do, which is why this box is so large and inconvenient. Some sites will completely block your access, but I'm not doing that - I'm appealing to your good nature instead. Did you know that you can allow ads for specific sites, whilst still blocking them on others?

Thanks,
Ian Williams aka Fetch
or for an ad-free Fetcheveryone experience!

Some great newts everyone.
My newt today was going on a course organised by the regional RDA people about autism awareness and using Makaton. I've never used Makaton before but I am going to try to extend my knowledge now and use it when I can.

Makaton was something that I found to be very useful during my teaching career. A very nice Newt, baroness. :)

I learned Makaton a long time ago. There's a handful of useful signs I can remember, but the one that really stuck was *turtle*. Not sure I ever had an opportunity to use that one in work though!

My three all learned a little Makaton with the scouts. The only sign I can remember, apart from *hello* is *sausages*

We found makaton great with Leaflet when he was little. In fact the sign for 'finished' was life changing - he seemed to appreciate it meant 'for now' as opposed to will never happen again, far fewer meltdowns!

Most of you know the score. Much in the bizarre way Easter has come to mean Chocolate, Lent is mainly thought of as an opportunity to Give Up Chocolate. At least until Easter. You know what I mean, 'What are you giving up for Lent?' * I say NO to this. Away with the hair shirts and the deprivation. Let's embrace change and the NEW. Spring is a time of renewal - and restoration.

Soooooo..... you don't have to take up indoor sky diving like my partner's 90 year old mot...
