New article on how to teach vocabulary explicitly.

Thanks @MrZachG for the amazing recent podcast episodes with @smorrisey and Anita Archer which inspired me to write this and heavily influenced the scripted lesson example I’ve included.

***MODELLING***

Fantastic work from @MissCole279 this week leading our teaching and practice CPD labs 😊

We’ve been getting granular about modelling. This simple exercise gave teachers the chance to think about checking for understanding as they model - what are the ‘do not pass go’ moments that need checking before handing over to students? 💡

The most common teaching mistakes are things like:

presenting too much
not enough practice
not gathering responses
moving on too quickly
not securing attention
no examples

I’m struck by how much attention we devote in education to stuff that distracts from these fundamentals.

“The only thing that matters with feedback is the reaction of the recipient. That’s it. Feedback —no matter how well designed— that the student does not act upon is a waste of time." Dylan Wiliam (2017)

Students often need prompts, reminders & guidance to reflect & respond to the feedback they receive. This Feedback book mark is one example, it can be adapted for different subjects, ages & key stages.

As we head into End of Year exams season, it's worth revisiting a helpful technique: annotating exam questions.

There's a growing body of evidence supporting its effectiveness. Here are some ways I use annotating along with some recent evidence.
