@MrMHistorian Llongyfarchiadau! 🍾

@pgabrielle18 The most impactful things we do, I'd say, are showing them examples of textbooks/questions when we teach education, and using lots of video testimonies of survivors when teaching persecution/Kristallnacht. Always editing our lessons though. Which topics are you thinking of?

I have just finished creating a series of revision sheets. These are for the #WJEC #GCSE #history Germany in Transition unit. May not be of use, but here's the link if they are:

@HoHistory This looks excellent and well-varied. Thanks for sharing!

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@sg_teaching Go well 👊🏼

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

It's been said a lot here of late, but I've really enjoyed planning lessons this lockdown. Using new online tools, and really thinking about what pupils *need* to know and understand has been interesting. Had to think hard about questioning too, to ensue inclusivity. #disthist

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @padlet That's good to hear. Fingers crossed! 🤞🏼

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

Looking for some inspiration. Which methods/platforms/websites have you found useful for AfL and checking for understanding during live lessons? Other than the chat function. Thanks! #DistHist #historyteacher

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @padlet That's really useful. Hoping to trial it on Monday with Y13. Going to get them to share introductions to an essay they're currently working on.

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @padlet Brill - thanks!

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @padlet Sorry to be a pain! I'm setting up Padlet now and looking at different formats to use - Wall and Stream so far. Can I ask which format this is?

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @historicaltoast @nearpod Very kind. Ha, I thought I was fairly computer literate until we started live lessons 🥴

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@scillyteacher Good shout! Have used these a few times in the past, but not of late. Will have a look this weekend.

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@KatieAmery @historicaltoast @nearpod Thanks so much for all of these suggestions! Padlet looks a really interesting platform in particular. Lots to play around with this weekend.

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

Thanks to @martinjohnes at @SwanseaHistory for talking to our A-level historians today @LlandoveryColl. Great for them to expand their knowledge with scholarship and get a sense of how history is constructed & revised over time. Diolch.

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

This is excellent.

Ok, as promised, here's a thread of my top 15 non-verbal gestures for effective behaviour management:

[TDRA History @TDRAHistory]

@sg_teaching Good luck man! 🤞🏼 Let me know how it goes.
