In English, when did annotating a text become some sort of end in itself, rather than just a process on the way to a real goal? "What are you going to do with the poem?" "I think we'll annotate it." "Why?" "That's what we do."

Really enjoying this thread on how to approach texts when teaching - covers the balance of "granular interpretation of technique" and "magic of the text"

Year 12 are having a lecture from 𝐃𝐚𝐫𝐫𝐞𝐧 𝐅𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐛𝐮𝐫𝐲-𝐉𝐨𝐧𝐞𝐬 from the Shakespeare B Trust this morning! Fantastic opportunity to hear from experts in the field 📚📖 thank you!

Brilliant.

Really interesting discussions happening about annotation on here. I've always thought that theme tracking might be more useful? Nobody does it more beautifully than Kate in Year 10 #litincolour #leavetaking
