Great first session on active approaches to teaching Shakespeare with English & Media Ctr and @TorchesBright (Tom). I was hesitant about shouting out Macbeth quotes but it really made me think. Not sure how the shouting will go down when I do session 2 from my classroom tomorrow!

Thoroughly engaging session forming part 1 of 3 this evening, developing my personal professional learning. Lots of takeaways and strategies to trial with classes. Thank you to JT Free School for facilitating my participation in this #professionallearning #shakespeare #engagement

Real pleasure today to meet Tom and Fiona from @TorchesBright and to see the fabulous work they've facilitated at Charles Dickens Primary School and Nursery. Warm welcome from everyone, especially the enthusiastic confident children and Midas, the play the children staged, is terrific.

Thank you @torchesbright for a wonderful workshop exploring how to teach Shakespeare in fun, active and engaging ways. The English PGCE students had an amazing time and now have a bursting toolbox of drama strategies to take into the classroom! We hope to work with you again soon
