Classroom ready for Y11 to have a seminar. After a mini lecture with note taking, 30 minutes preparing their seminar notes and further research, we are ready to have a collaborative discussion today.
Lovely Y7 are enjoying a reading lesson.
All of us are enjoying reading and relaxing with a book to celebrate our hard work. Lovely lesson to say goodbye! ♥️♥️📚📚 @WalesHigh@WalesEnglish
@MrsVRE Speak to Wendy, there might already be something in the pipeline for tutor literacy. But, if not, I'd be interested in helping you, especially if you're up for getting the students to choose books- my topic of MA!
@MO_WalesHS amazing blackout poetry today from Y9! Some really powerful poetry created in response to the exploration of poetry used to speak to society. @WalesEnglish
Some examples of AIC thesis statements shared in class today while working on planning essays with golden thread. Well done Charlie and Laura! @WalesEnglish
@WHS_LSU @CakesAlana Not surprised Alana has the highest amount of achievement points this week, she was smashed English this week with lots of contribution to class discussion and independent work! Superstar! ⭐🌟⭐
Fab Y11s yesterday revising significant moments and their links in lesson yesterday. Yes, you can spot a student climbing to a better angle for his proud photo home!
Loved teaching the Battle of the Books! So many students have gone away with books they want to read. Even had a few "I hate books" kids saying they wanted to get one of the books we battled or excited over the stories. I don't think the Rocky music upon entry hurt either!
