Blackpool FC fans are queuing outside Bloomfield Road this morning, ahead of next weekend's big 'homecoming'

I haven’t posted in a while, but am looking into the idea of buying some new novels. What are your favourites to read at KS3, particularly lower level? #teamenglish

Im sure there are lots of teachers dreading this conversation “I’m sorry your grade is 2 lower than the 4 mocks you did but someone decided last year’s results limit yours”.

I love football being back on the telly and all, but where’s the social distancing? How are students expected to if this group of adults can’t?

Seen a few people reposting my Tiktok - coming out of my Twitter silence to say I’m glad I’m not the only one experiencing this!

Giving up marking for this evening. Get me some gin, immediately.

I would not like to get up today

'Off' a modal verb? Good Morning Britain if your presenters can't get it right, why should 11 year old be expected to?

Apologies to Ollie, Adam, Southern, Evatt, Taylor-Fletcher, Ormerod, Crainey, Taylor-Fletcher and the rest, your efforts have been wasted.

Love how my Chinese class are revising. "That character is air and that is water, so that's fizzy drinks!" Be kind, AQA

Chinese foundation listening seemed relatively straightforward. Students came out happy, anyway! Just reading to go. #jiayou

Really need to get back into using Twitter. Such a wealth of great resources and people to bounce ideas off!

Very disappointed having seen the amount of bigoted responses to this morning's tweet! Fact is he claimed it was 'not normal behaviour.'

Impressionable children may see that and therefore deduce that the idea of same sex kissing is wrong, when we should be promoting equality.

Although I'd be interested to see what Piers Morgan would have said had it been a female actress kissing another female.

I suppose if anything good is to come of this, I can make a cracking lesson on pragmatics. Cheers Piers Morgan

Anyway, with all that said and done, first day of spring term was quite a positive one. May the rest of the term continue similarly!

Has anyone used mad libs as a way of reinforcing word classes? How effective have you found it if so? #teamenglish
