I saved this brilliant read by @thisiskeiraw for the summer hols and it did not disappoint. Crime, nostalgia and a paranormal twist in 1980s Manchester. I cannot wait to ‘go back to the ballroom’ when the next book is released in November! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

@Positivteacha Thank you for this. I heard this term for the first time the other day in a lesson with Yr 7. I did some Googling but couldn’t find anything as comprehensive as this. I’ll be sharing it with other members of staff at school. Thank you again!

@MissL_Amos Ooh what show is this?

This is getting quite a bit of attention today - are people planning for the final 4/5 weeks after Easter?

If so - I hope they help

@Mathew_Lynch44 Absolutely not. Never. Nope. 😱

It was an absolute joy taking 40 Yr10 students to see this at @LeedsPlayhouse. A brilliant production that our students loved. ❤️

A thread of practice P2 Q5 questions, as I think of them. Not promising they'll all be hugely original but hopefully you'll find some ideas.
