I've led teaching and learning (in various roles) for a decade now. Below is a thread outlining 10 things I think can work best. I've implemented some more than others, succeeded more with some than others, but seen all of them work. I have changed my mind; I will change my mind.
Playing around with ways to track characters following the course readers. Will see how this goes and then share if it works!
For those of you looking for some P1 Q3 inspiration for the final push, I've added new texts - blank and annotated copies - to the downloads folder of my blog post on teaching structure through moving image. tinyurl.com/9kj2xfep #teamenglish

Brief notes on the theme of responsibility in An Inspector Calls douglaswise.co.uk/blog/brief-not… 🔍
“Belonging cues are behaviors that create safe connection in groups. They include, among others, proximity, eye contact, energy, mimicry, turn taking, attention, body language, vocal pitch, consistency of emphasis, and whether everyone talks to everyone else in the group.” 🙌🏻
I've just uploaded 10 hours of Y11 lit & lang revision sheets to my resources page here: funkypedagogy.com/resources/ I print these as A3 sheets - one side of Literature and one side of Language. Each side has 30 minutes of specific timed activities. Feel free to use/adapt/ignore.
Loving @FunkyPedagogy's timed revision grids (slightly adapted to suit our texts). Such excitement to share with Y11 in the final weeks 😍. Thank you!
I’ve uploaded my Rosenshine’s Principles CPD booklet to my google drive (link in pinned tweet) ☺️ Thanks to @teacherhead @olicav and @KateJones_teach for writing such great books that hugely help to bridge the gap between educational research and application to the classroom! 👏🏼
It's been a while since I shared anything so here goes... A series of short 'Do Now' tasks based on exploring multiple interpretations in 'A Christmas Carol'. Instructions are in the PPT... a quick and easy way of exploring different readings of characters and quotations.…
Really looking forward to this! 🙌
Really looking forward to this! 🙌
Best guess English Lit questions for this year’s exam papers? @LauraLolder @FunkyPedagogy @Team_English1
One last booklet before Y11 time... a booklet targeting high leverage questions on the language papers, skills based. Aimed at 30 minute sessions.Mostly adapted from some resources already on my website, image & link in second tweet. Will share this for @Team_English1 once done
When @FunkyPedagogy throws you a bridal shower, you know it’s going to be fabulous. ❤️❤️

I love studying how teams can thrive and perform to their potential! We can make huge gains with team effectiveness, morale, relationships, development, etc, just by investing more in team work. Here are some key features of high-performing teams that everyone should explore:
If you missed this yesterday, I'm trying to facilitate a network for literacy leaders to share ideas and support each other online (and maybe in person...!). Give @LiteracyCommUK a follow and fill in this form so that I can add you to the mailing list! forms.gle/KKkkUxujvjqjDK…
#TeamEnglish *please* do not spend your Easter hols making revision booklets and practice papers for your Y11s. Instead, enjoy some of my resources on @LitdriveUK. Use the visualiser and drill them in Language lessons for 4 weeks. Not boring, because the extracts are fun! 1/

On Monday, whilst at school, I was devastated to find I'd left my hand cream at home. I was forced to use vaseline lip balm instead. I shared my sorrowful tale with @FunkyPedagogy. Today, I got this. And emergency stashes at THREE locations in school 🤣
@SarahJulio @Team_English1 My school has no KS3 cover and KS4 is covered within the department, so an expert takes the class. You don’t set anything. I keep an eye on where classes are or have a later lesson the teacher can teach, but in most cases the teacher will ask the class to do a certain thing.
Still time to grab a last-minute ticket for tonight’s session on #oracy, starting at 7:30pm. Excited to spend an hour this evening with a sterling group of #educators!

Is there a platform or app where I can put a load of pins in a map to track the geographical spread of people in The Literacy Community?? Not sure if this will make any sense to anyone 🙈😂 @LiteracyCommUK
Having listened to @speakwithsimon1 through @MyattandCo discuss #oracy strategies, I would highly recommend getting a ticket!
After recently running my #oracy webinar for schools across North Wales, delighted to be offering this as an open event at 7:30pm on Weds 24 April. Grab yourself a ticket and come along!

A thought-provoking initial meeting with @LiteracyCommUK. An exciting opportunity to be involved in, especially when thinking about how this could help us to support students at @TTCTrust. 'Set a literacy fire and it's going to spread' @FunkyPedagogy you are an inspiration!
@Manor_HOD @LiteracyCommUK @TTCTrust Thank you!!! Absolutely BUZZING for this!
I've just uploaded 10 hours of Y11 lit & lang revision sheets to my resources page here: funkypedagogy.com/resources/ I print these as A3 sheets - one side of Literature and one side of Language. Each side has 30 minutes of specific timed activities. Feel free to use/adapt/ignore.
