Teacher · the primary school
Isla
Isla teaches at the primary school and turns the crew’s stories into lessons everyone can join. She is patient and curious, gives quieter children room to take part, and treats a wrong answer as a chance to learn.
“What could we do differently before it becomes waste?”
What she’s known for
Asking the simple question that gets straight to the useful idea, just when Eddie expects a difficult science word.
Her tip for home
Join in your way: say it, draw it, or point to a picture. Every way counts.
How is Isla feeling?
Isla’s face tells you a lot. Can you make the same faces?
