I've been a little quite of Twitter recently as I've been supporting my school implementing a project called 'No screen- just be a teen' where students spend time away from their screens and learn away from the computer. Such an exciting project, can't wait to see where it goes.

I was in school today and my students made a snowman during their break time. They called him 'Covid the Snowman'

It always amazes me how much we teachers can get done in a day. I co-created a strategy to plan, deliver and assess my Year 11 students. Ensuring that all children can reach there potential, feel supported and confident in their knowledge is the top priority. 💪

It was an absolute honour to speak at UoNSociology careers event about my career so far. It was great to see so many young people engaged in social research and passionate about furthering their careers. Thank you UoNSociology for hosting

A different take on guided reading- an activity sheet focusing on key words. This is an example I’ve created for coastal management. Template shared if you would like it: drive.google.com/file/d/1Tak5_1… #literacymatters #geographyteacher Note:Key word triangle from ‘closing the word gap’

Fantastic day today, it's been great to be back in the classroom and seeing how engaged the students are. Also I ran my first teaching and learning session for staff after school. Today's lesson on cross curriculum literacy and approaches to promote reading and writing.

Super interesting article by my SO on the $100 billion club. Unsurprisingly the richest people in the word are all white men.... 🤷‍♀️ biznation.co.uk/post/the-exclu…

I used @BiznationUK's article for a 6th form taster session looking at global governance. It created a really great debate development and the wealth gap. Fab resource

At the beginning of the Euros each of my students picked a country in the tutor sweepstake, England was not pulled out, so I told me class that if England I would buy them all a chocolate bar, thinking that would never happen. Guess I better go shopping since it's #ComingHome 😂

I’ve had lots of questions about my tutoring booklets; 1. A retrieval practice page - students complete as much as they can, then I work with them on any gaps/misconceptions 2. Exam practice - applying the knowledge by planning/writing an answer or looking at modelled answers
