Here are 9 mini booklets for ACC, AIC and Macbeth. Each is based on a different theme & follows the same format, ending in an exam question which can be easily adapted depending on spec. Suitable for live/independent work. Use/chuck/change! @Team_English1 https://t.co/3A5meMWTWE

@ToniMarland @StTeresasRCP @MrAlexanderY4 Hey not sure who you meant to tag but I don't think you meant me 🤣

5 additional takeaways from the exams this year as I definitely still agree with my original ten!

1. Drop quotations used accurately help student reach top band marks. The “judicious” in the mark scheme can be difficult to reach if only one…

@The_Globe During lockdown there was a version of Macbeth available for free for schools to watch when studying, it's a brilliant performance is it available anywhere now to pay to watch?

I've made 5 creative writing cover lessons which might be useful for @Team_English1 for cover/revision/lessons etc. See resource here: https://t.co/SKl5iyUNos

Writing model answers for GCSE students: some thoughts.

We all know that modelling exam technique and essay writing is an extremely powerful teaching method, but there's a particular current of poor practice that I seem to see quite often.

@WhistleblowingT I've done supply a few times before, make sure to sign up to multiple agencies, don't be afraid to say no to working in certain schools
For me between a few weeks and a few months before I end up somewhere long term
Always been a positive experience though x

Starting at my new school today 😊

Always fun to start a new chapter but always so nerve wracking!!! 😲🤞🥰

[MissMcCandless @Miss_McCandless]

@PrimaryMiss_M As a supply teacher this will be much appreciated!!!

So many teachers don't even leave cover work these days! It's always nice to know that we've been thought of by the class teacher ❤

[MissMcCandless @Miss_McCandless]

Just found out one of my students has been faking an accent since I joined the school....

In FEBRUARY

🤣🤣🤣🤣

[MissMcCandless @Miss_McCandless]

Student 1: "are you a Miss or Mrs?"

Me: "I'm a Miss because I'm not married"

Student 2: "Miss do you think you're not married yet because you're 28 and still watch anime?"

Me: 😐😐😐 brutal

Any chance any one has some good resources for preparing Functional Skills English Entry 3 speaking and listening?
