Anyone currently teaching Anita and Me? Struggling to find resources and we only have a couple of students sitting the exam due to being unable to do AIC and wondering if anyone can help rather than reinventing the wheel! TIA. @TeamEnglishNC @Team_English1
Back from maternity after nearly a year off and looking at planning an extra special WBD! Would love @CressidaCowell to potentially visit our school and share the magic behind 'How to Train your Dragon'! Anyone know where I can begin to make this a reality?
Check out the Manor High staff having a go at th Reading Keepie Uppie Challenge! 🤪🙈. Can you do better? Send in your videos to [email protected]. Prizes available for the best compilation! #getcaughtreadingathome #readingkeepieuppiechallenge
A great resource for teachers (and parents...takes notes!) - modern children’s fiction linked with topics in the the science yr 7 & 8 curriculum. Supporting reading choices in secondary school is really, really useful.
Just been on a course and was told about ‘parts-of-speech.info’. Type in or paste whatever text you like and it will tell you each word class in the sentence! Such a useful tool. 👀
Congratulations @ManorHighSchool in your reading achievements! Incredibly proud of our kind-hearted and charitable students at Manor High. #ReadforGood #Readingsaveslives
If teachers are requesting flex because workload is unmanageable, then schools have a duty to review the demands on staff. PT working is not a support tool for workload.
Approaching Unseen Poetry: a guide for students inspired by @olicav. This information previously lived on an unsightly, overcrowded slide as a bulleted list. My first attempt at dual coding so still lots to learn. Link below 👇 @EnglishWales @Team_English1
If your KS4 are just not 'getting' q3 structure (lang 1) I recommend a lesson using the short film 'Lava'. This answer from Phoebe was incredible. Real light bulb moment. 👌💡 #aqalanguage #TeamEnglish
You guys were fabulous 👏 thank you so much for finding time out of university to visit @ManorHighSchool and share your expertise with our student. Your presentation was fabulous and you've inspired our literacy ambassadors #rolemodels #innovators #empoweringstudentvoice
