First draft of pedagogy knowledge organisers that I’ve put together to ensure that mentors, trainees and staff have a common foundation of knowledge and understanding.

It links to clear strategies, questions to ask to facilitate coaching conversations and links to research.

"When pupils are explicitly taught to plan and monitor their writing, they begin to approach writing with more purpose and confidence."

@Hantsresearch's Charlotte Chessell shares strategies to help young pupils become more confident, independent writers.

Okay, so this is my first effort at a 'hook' using story. I wrote it to see if I can try and emulate the great work being done by @Counsell_C and Steve Mastin, whose talks on stories I was greatly pleased to attend last weekend. Let's see how it goes! #historyteacher

[Dan Warner-Meanwell @mrwmhistory]

Looking for some ideas and advice please Edutwitter: how do you push your most able students? And how do you support students with the jump from grade 6/7 to 8/9? I'm thinking both in lessons and through home learning. All ideas welcome! Please feel free to follow/retweet!

If you were to focus on improving disciplinary literacy across school, what would your three go to areas/strategies that you could include for:
1) Reading
2) Writing
3) Oracy

What has the most leverage?

Yr 10 did their first medicine key people icon drills today

2 minutes per person. 1 minute knowledge recall followed by 1 minute knowledge organiser/book check.

Students then flip it over and test each other by forming verbal answers. They smashed it!

[Jonny Hemphill @worcesterjonny]

Oliver Cromwell - Hero or Villain? It’s an old old one and probably needs a new enquiry question. I’m open to suggestions! I’m focusing more on his actions in Ireland. Bringing in some scholarship using Micheál Ó Siochrú’s ‘God’s executioner’. #historyteacher

[Christine Wager @christ1ne_wager]

Excellent research-based summary of what every teacher needs to know about retrieval practice #rED22 @PearceMrs

[Dr Pippa Busch @PippaBusch]

To anyone who couldn’t make #rED22 yesterday, here is a little summary of how to adapt cognitive science for SEND pupils…🧵

[Greg Thornton @MrThorntonTeach]

Does anyone have a stationary vending machine in their school?

Saw one during our INSET at @edgehill today and thought “We need one of those!”

[Hallie Rubenhold @HallieRubenhold]

Right. So here we go again, my 3rd encounter with having my IP stolen. This time of my book, The Five. 2 years ago I was approached by @VICE productions to co-present and advise on a documentary series about the Ripper victims, which I ended up pulling out of. Here's the story.🧵

This simple little task gives the pupils an overview of gender, class and political issues surrounding the campaign for women’s suffrage #historyteacher

HA Conference will be in Bristol this May - booking is open. Don't miss the early bird discount https://t.co/DT6ztWc6ZR

[Dom Spowart @MrSpowart]

Year 9 have been looking at the causes, treatment, and prevention for the Great Plague. Then comparing to the Black Death. #historyteacher

[James Fitzgibbon @mrfitzhist]

4 mark questions can get neglected when trying to nail the 12/16 markers. Inspired by the recent feedback posts of @MrThorntonTeach and @MissHensonHist I’ve put together a format that is quickly marked, key criteria is identifiable and space for a WAGOLL example. #historyteacher

[Simon Beale @SPBeale]

Thrilled to speak at the @PiXLclub #pixlHistory conference. Here is the updated example of my marginal gains sheet & my assessment feedback sheet. Both available in my google drive link pinned to my tweet.

[James Fitzgibbon @mrfitzhist]

I wanted a task to help students measure the significance of factors. The ‘higher or lower’ visual format, adaptable for all content/KeyStages allows pupils to judge each factor to the previous and then choose the one they consider the overall most significant. #historyteacher

The portcullis has been raised and the gates are open! #HeverCastle is now open for 2022 😊
