So in lockdown 1 I got really into fitness, but struggled to keep it up during my first term of teacher training. This placement I’m determined to get back into it and so far so good! I’ve never been a runner so not very speedy but I’ve managed to run 47k so far this month πŸ€©πŸƒβ€β™€οΈ

This article changed my outlook on questioning students in live lessons! Before I was asking open questions to the room with little engagement, but by implementing the pre-call and the batched cold call, engagement increased with most students πŸ˜ƒπŸ™‹πŸ»β€β™€οΈ shorturl.at/aryEI

taught my first a level lesson today on plate tectonics. I put a lot of pressure on myself to make it perfect so let my nerves get to me a bit, but still lots of positives πŸ™Œ can’t wait to do another and improve even more 🀩

Turning to Twitter for inspo as geography Twitter is just so supportive 🀩 wondering if anybody has some suggestions for different ways to teach case studies? Ideally I want to steer away from the usual case study sheet! My class need some variety in a case study heavy unit 🀞🏼

My ECT focus for this half term has been on spaced practice with GCSE groups. What strategies do you use within your GCSE lessons to get students to recall and revisit previously taught content/topics?

78 years ago today over 7,000 prisoners of the German Nazi camp #Auschwitz, including some 700 children, were liberated by the soldiers of the Soviet Army. 1,689 days of murder, pain, suffering, and humiliation were over. Today we all remember. We must remember. | #Auschwitz78
