Core Skills - and here's one I made earlier

As a Brit I am attached to the Blue Peter expression "And here's one I made earlier" which always preceded the production of an almost-finished article on the make-it-yourself program for children.

You were watching, say, John Noakes making a space station from egg boxes, washing up liquid bottles and copious amounts of tin foil; and glue. In the middle of the mess he was making, John would reach under the desk and say "and here's one I made earlier", and produce that space station in perfect  working order.

So, I was delighted when I pulled out from under my desk, a book entitled "Core Coaching Skills for Educators", all typed up and ready to print (almost).
