I believe children should have control over their learning and I have worked with pupils to express their own views. For instance, I produced a film with SEN children to allow them to share their own interests: they dressed up as their favourite character and performed their own scene. This was then followed up with a very moving ‘Oscar’ awards ceremony. I have created flexible, fun but purposeful activities

He also said that the moon revolves around the sun. This is wrong because the moon rotates counterclockwise around the Earth as the Earth revolves around the sun. The moon’s rotation around the Earth
