This is an excellent paper that explores the massive potential that some cognitive linguistic/stylistic ideas have to support the explicit teaching of writing. Thoroughly recommended @Team_English1 @NATEfeed @LitdriveUK

@DWClayton3 Thank you Dave, and you!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

After a very long and stressful year, to go with the three long years before it, I can say that, with three MA assignments completed, I'm officially a qualified teacher! Also happy to finally announce that I'll be starting my new job in September in a lovely school in Surrey. 👩‍🏫

@Shivandavis Thank you for sharing this!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

My connection died as she answered my question but @FunkyPedagogy J&H CPD was just what I needed to start my learning of this new text!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@FunkyPedagogy @ITTteamenglish @Team_English1 Yesss

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@MissUnsworth94 @FunkyPedagogy Have it, just got to make time to read it! I'll send you a message when I have! 🤞😘

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@MissUnsworth94 Sounds really stupid but how do you know what is tier 2/3 vocabulary? I like this idea for my NQT year!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@TedGooda Thank you, just is an extra thing to worry about!! Hope to 'see' you on Friday if that's okay!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

Starting an NQT year is scary enough, but the thought of starting amid/after all of this chaos makes me want to run away and hide!

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@missfaulkner16 Thank you!! I'll be teaching Macbeth for the first time, barely know it atm, but enjoyed your zoom sessions, can you reccomend anything in particular for basic level subject knowledge? Maybe some good critical articles? Not to worry if not! X

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

Any recommendations for texts to increase my interest and engagement with or my depth of knowledge around Shakespeare? #NQTtobenerves

[Donna Carpenter @MissDLCarpenter]

@FunkyPedagogy @MissUnsworth94 @missfaulkner16 Thank you! I have a few of the very short intros but a few more might be needed, and some books I've never heard of! Thank you 🥰
