I’m helping a teacher improve their planning. This little summary I made for them is packed with useful advice on the reasoning behind the planning rather than usual sharing of activities. Long term improvement 📈 #coaching #why #mflinaction #mfltwitterati #langchat #languages

This may be useful if you are in Year 6 and are being moderated for your writing. Annoyed at the GDS statements being too woolly, I worked through every moderation commentary pack and found practical examples to back up each strand with evidence.

@EducEndowFoundn @Literacy_Trust It says the deadline has passed. Can we still apply?

[Martin Ferguson @MrFerguson85]

Absolutely thrilled to have had the opportunity to collab with @XpatEducator this month! Inspired by his 'One Pagers' book, Jamie has produced these superb summaries for three chapters of my book. Forever impressed by his eye for design & presentation. Many thanks! @JohnCattEd

I've read a lot on adaptive teaching this week and I kept coming back to this blog by Alex and @ClareSealy’s Four Verbs blog. What they both have in common is they carefully define what AT is and isn't. I've enjoyed depicting both of their blogs.

[David Goodwin @MrGoodwin23]

I finally got around to reading @ClareSealy's ADAPTIVE TEACHING – THE FOUR VERBS APPROACH. It is an absolute must-read:

Here is a poster of my learning takeaways, but set some time aside and delve into this carefully crafted blog.
