@LauraLolder I’m somewhere between 1 & 3. I have one private study session with my year 11 class and then I can start to breathe. But if it’s anything like half term I’ll come down with some dreaded lurgy when my body realises it has got time to tell me it’s not happy with the lack of sleep.

@HWimbushEnglish @shadylady222 @Lit_liverbird Thanks for the history lesson on the poor law yesterday. Dickens language and perspective makes even more sense now.

@zssnas @shadylady222 @LitdriveUK I loved your session on A Christmas Carol yesterday. I’ll definitely revise my focus when I teach it next year. Thank you.

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]

@shadylady222 I found your session really helpful and I’m going to steal your strategies to help my similar cohort. Thank you.

@s_hawksworth @PendleVale I like how you have incorporated a questioning section.

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]

@s_hawksworth @PendleVale has something similar but we have our Talk Templates printed and laminated and out on students’ desks. Starting to see improvements in oracy. #oracy #TeamOracy #literacy

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]

@s_hawksworth @PendleVale This is a new T&L strategy which we have implemented this term. Each curriculum area has designed their own Talk Template. Here is KS3 English.

One good way of doing this is as a ‘reverse advent calendar’. If your children can bear to part with toys they’ve grown out of, see if you can choose one a day in December, then fill a box to take to the local refugee centre or charity shop

@missgstephenson I’m going to try this next week. Thank you.

@MissMJRogers I have never felt so tired at the end of a day’s work.

@TeachLeadAAli I wouldn’t bother with Madame Tussauds. It’s over priced and the wax works are distinctly average. Long queues too. Do an open top bus tour; you learn and see loads.

@Jeff_Pedley I write this sitting in the kitchen sink. That is, my feet are in it; the rest of me is on the draining board. (Sorry it’s 2 sentences but worth it.)

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]

@toughtoteach @_krogg I had the same and got the same translation.

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]

@MrsRHEnglish @GCSE_Macbeth Agree on all three.

[Andrea Tattersall @Tatters410]
