Really inspiring and useful webinar from @Counsell_C on the power of stories in History. Lots of things to take away and think about for @BeckfootHums. #historyteacher

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

@AHTMrsD Ah congratulations! Hope all is well with you and baby x

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

An early Christmas present from me to me. Excited to read this @KateJones_teach!

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

@tandteaching @MrsBallAP Loved listening to this on my drive in today! Gave me lots to think about. Thank you! 🤩

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

@clairegfisher How many historical decorations is too many?

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

An absolute privilege to hear from Manfred Goldberg today as part of our @BeckfootHums Wider Learning Day for Y10. Thank you @HolocaustUK

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

@lamb_heart_tea Black Tudors & Sugar in the Blood have had a direct impact on SoWs I’ve planned. The Five & Death in Ten Minutes are ones I want to utilise more in our redrafted schemes. Essentially anything from @historybookgrp!

🧵This is then checked each week by the students using the “model” version that is displayed on the board, ensuring that students are taking ownership of their work and not creating an extra workload for our staff @BeckfootHums

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

🧵 In addition the the KS4 and KS5 examples @RachaelCattrall and I shared at our @researchED1 talk and on today’s @tandteaching , BeckfootHums have been working on a cross-subject approach to the booklets at KS3…

[Rachael Cattrall @RachaelCattrall]

Thank you to everyone that came to see me and @AmyPollard93 talk about meaningful home learning! It was lovely to have some good conversations about our work afterwards too.

Here is a link to our slides: https://t.co/cQvo4KRAWW

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

🧵Each week our students complete a “… like a Beckfooter” task that can either consolidate learning or prepare them for their next lesson. We’re using the same retrieval techniques from the wonderful @KateJones_teach that they are used to in lessons.

[Amy Lowde @AmyLowde93]

It was great to chat with Mike and Arthur @tandteaching about the work @RachaelCattrall and I did around home learning @BeckfootHums @BeckfootTL - full podcast out tomorrow if you fancy a listen!

Love this thread

🧵

I listened to some great history podcasts over the summer.

The subject knowledge was helpful, sure- but I was surprised by how much pedagogy I picked up.

Here’s a short thread of what I learned abt history teaching/storytelling, that I am now using more in the classroom:
