What an amazing lessonin Drama with our new S2 and Ms. Glancey @SLHCreativeArts as part of our #slhsopendoors - so wonderful to hear from pupils about their learning on "status" in drama and to see them bring their learning to life so confidently and independently! @StLukesHigh

☑️ CHECKING FOR UNDERSTANDING! Highly recommend the book ‘Explicit Direct Instruction (EDI)’ by Hollingsworth, and Ybarra. The ‘TAPPLE’ acronym they introduce is ingenious for memorising their steps for Checking for Understanding. Take a look at this visual breakdown...

Excellent work today from 1K who engaged with choral reading on Scottish myths during which we paused to check for understanding on key, complex vocabulary before getting our teeth into an RUAE carousel on the different question types! #resilience #bravery @SLHSLangComm

When I first introduced retrieval practice, my students resisted. They still preferred checking their notes or copying from a partner because it felt easier (habits are hard to break). So I took a step-by-step approach to show them why retrieval works using a gym analogy. 🧵

Great work from N5 today evaluating essay work based on feedback from their recent essays. They worked so hard to think deeply about the "why" behind what they were flagging as good and less good examples of writing and then applied this in their own work! @SLHSLangComm

S2 have made such a wonderful start to our Romeo and Juliet work! Today we used our previous learning to identify symbols linking to the text's characters and designing masks the characters could wear to the Capulet ball! Such amazing ideas! @SLHSLangComm

Excellent work from 1K yesterday as they worked through their Percy Jackson Escape Room! Great to see pupils recall key information, identify key quotes and analyse characters! @SLHSLangComm

@erc_literacy @SLHSLangComm Thank you so much for coming!

Excellent work from Advanced Higher evaluating and providing each other with feedback based on our agreed areas for development. Lovely to follow it up with a competitive game of Retrieval Pong on our knowledge of both our Lit Study texts! Well done, S6! @SLHSLangComm
