Received a gift of these dice where on each side you can write what you wish 🎲 Thinking of integrating it somehow into teaching and lessons 👩‍🏫 Any ideas or thoughts on how to?

@JCooke0909 Thank you. Will look into it!

Teaching ‘Conflict and tension: The inter-war years, 1918-1939’ at GCSE (AQA). Any recommendations for additional reading/resources for subject knowledge?

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@ShannonTeach1 @TheRestHistory Yes. I’ve been listening to that

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@MissChris_hist Thank you. Will definitely take a look at these 😁

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@ShannonTeach1 Thanks for the podcast recommendations 🙌

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@clare_d1683 Thank you! This looks brilliant, can’t wait to dig in

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@MoirMiromoir It’s for all year groups. But what sparked my theory is year 9 in particular. I found they can get the knowledge on the paper, they just can’t develop it, or if they do it’s simple.

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

My school is focusing on WCF when it comes to feedback and assessment. We need to centre an activity based around a whole class focus.

Any ideas/approaches/activities that are centred around helping students develop their explanations when it comes to writing in history?

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@MoirMiromoir Whole class feedback

[Fay Fitzsimmons @MissFHistory]

@Ivesey2 @SPBeale Yes please that would be great!
