  • Summary

  • Hey There Everyone,


    In this conversation, Mike Watson, a primary school teacher in the UK, discusses the importance of stories and literature in education. We chat about how the power of stories to teach children about different perspectives and build relationships are essential. Mike also highlights the need for teachers to adapt their book choices to the interests and experiences of their students.

    He shares his favorite books for children, including Maurice Sendak's 'Where the Wild Things Are' and Sean Tan and Gary Crew's 'The Water Tower'. Mike also discusses the challenges in the education system, such as the focus on knowledge over understanding and the increasing workload on teachers.


    A dope and insightful conversation with an educator over in the UK.
