NEW ‘Power and Conflict - The Interpretations’ revision booklet. I always get my students to consider 3 interpretations of each poem and ask them to consider which they agree with the most. It’s a great springboard for debate and considering new ideas. I have collated these into a new revision resource. Use/chuck/change as you see fit! @Team_English1

🏗️ Scaffolding Think, Pair, Share can help facilitate deep discussions and drive thinking from ALL students. This handy resource is designed to help students master the WHAT, WHY, and HOW of the process.

I really like this idea from @MrRobHistory! I’m going to try it with some of my students in English for the literature texts. Great to see how one idea can be utilised across different subjects. Thanks, Derrick! @Team_English1

🚨 NEW RESOURCE 🚨

@MrGoodwin23 has designed a brilliant infographic based on my blog on 'Adaptive Teaching: Scaffolds, Scale, Structure and Style'.

The PDF version is freely available on my resources page: https://t.co/XtH6wtQW54

*** Improving Independent Learning ***

"Every teacher can share ample examples of students struggling to learn independently... giving up during extended writing, getting stuck with tricky algebra problems, or forgetting homework & avoiding revision."

Great progress today with our LP2, Q5 responses on fast fashion 🧥 ✅ Successful evaluation of a WAGOLL, crafting a killer introduction, and developing our argument through a range of techniques. All key targets from our mock exams 🎯

[K2SR7 @K2SR7]

Period 5 academic reading of 'Hunger Games' went well today! 🏹 So pleased this routine 🙌

[Matt Lynch @Mathew_Lynch44]

@LauraLolder @Team_English1 I made 30+ of these P2 Q5 style tasks a couple of years ago. Might be of use https://t.co/cNHgCPxdeB

[Laura Webb @LauraLolder]

AIC revision + teaching: we - students + teachers - need easy ways to codify big ideas and patterns. Vocab list, graphics of AIC characters and scripts for teacher exposition ➡️ https://t.co/vihMQwUyu1

[Diane Duncan @Diane_Duncan]

Difficult few months (years!) so haven't shared many resources. Just done AIC on one-page for my students who find revision booklet too much. Snippet below. Here for anyone who wants copy. https://t.co/BObmbE8dW7

[Josie Sacks @VersatileVocab1]

We know that writers often explore binary concepts: transient and permanent; concrete and abstract; constant and volatile. Teaching versatile vocabulary in pairs allows students to notice, create and analyse these patterns. This is what we want in their backpacks.

[Josie Sacks @VersatileVocab1]

@joharrop1 @Team_English1 We define 3-4 key quotes / ‘moments’ for each poem + attach them to key images and we teach versatile vocab that they can use to unlock big key concepts. Here’s a booklet w/ knowledge organisers + examples of images + quotes + model essays: https://t.co/ueFIrVle7x

[Stuart Pryke @SPryke2]

Here’s a scaffolded ‘A Christmas Carol’ intervention booklet for students who struggle with single word analysis. It’s based on @Xris32’s ‘words, words, words’ idea and ‘what does a writer want/need’ blog. Use/chuck/change as you see fit! https://t.co/SAZnRV9C4Q @Team_English1

[Douglas Wise @DoWise]

Today I’ve found out about Rewordify and I’m blown away! You can copy text and it will create word banks for you. Great for creating resources for low ability students 🤌🏻
