This is my 1,000th Blog Post! And Year Five Homework

Bald Worm' Blog began way back in Autumn 2007 to promote the use of baldworm.co.uk - my 11+ short story techniques sites, and to provide girls with a simple method for learning about their English homework. Over the years the blog has grown to include photos, video and podcasts, and examples of the pupils' work - like the digital recreation of King Duncan's murder above.

Since Autumn 2007, 'Bald Worm's blog' has received over 192,000 page views - and over 100,000 unique visitors! Thank you to all the girls and visitors who have taken the time to visit. I hope it has proven useful!

Here's to the next 1,000 posts!
