Since my 2nd year of teaching I find the most useful way to note feedback is have a blank copy of the exam paper and as I mark, I make notes of the good and the bad - names of great answers who I need to celebrate or common mistakes which I need to readdress or even fully reteach

@fiona_616 @pumpkinfaeries @adamboxer1 I always felt the admin took over my allocated HOD time and the T&L was what I could squeeze in - or done in holiday time because it generally didn’t have a deadline and something I did because I wanted too rather than directed by SLT

Lovely start to summer term ☀️
Every school login hacked in NI
“What’s my new password?” X 100 /day
Online coursework not marked.
Planned yesterday’s lessons at 8am when I finally got logged back in
Pupils not accessing google classroom.

It’s been a week - and it’s Tuesday

A nice little example of marketing of places and how physical geography can influence that #ALevelGeog

Brazil launched the "Amazonia" tourism brand for one of the country's largest regions.

It was made with letters composed by the Amazon river and captured from a satellite.

#GAConf26 is always a highlight of my Easter holidays filled with great opportunities however - this Easter I’ve been a bit busier - buying my first home!🏠
So today instead of inspiring lectures it’s cleaning dust and unpacking boxes 📦

A fantastic set of resources - especially if you teach HL IB Geography - global risks topic 🇺🇸🇨🇳

Anyone teach economic activity at KS3? Would love to see how people sequence it - also includes trade, potentially Almighty Dollar work too

China can't buy oil because Iran has closed the Strait of Hormuz and so they will buy it from the Russians. Russia will make a lot of money from this war. If Zelensky doesn't reopen the Friendship Pipeline, we Hungarians will have enough oil. But where does Europe get oil from?

@MarineTraffic is also an easy GIS tool to show containerisation, globalisation, and of course today - geopolitics and how geography is at the centre of it all. #HormuzStrait

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

@flightradar24 has always been one of my favourite underrated tools to teach, Geopolitics and globalisation - a great way to make quite complex ideas brought into every day contexts. Today this can be seen - more so than ever.

One of my favourite topics is superpowers - and how they change. This is geography diamond of an article - even has lots of GIS!

@SarahHodges1 I don’t think so. Could try Amazon?

What are popular rewards for your classes? Finding something desirable and age appropriate for secondary is hard.

TikTok shop (£1~ for 100) travel stickers are going down a treat - but have to be hard fought for - best in test, most impressed by… best homework etc

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

@robbeorn It’s going to be hard - but it might be worth it. I know CAs who would love opportunity to grow their career and become more specialised. I also would love to have more voice in where and when I need extra help with SEN pupils.

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

Today with my lower band Y8 (Y7 in Eng) we turned to creative writing (not just for English lessons!) but instead using OS map symbols to help to tell their stories 🗺️📍
Was so pleased with how they did!

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

Spotted one of my pupil’s folders had these stickers on them and I thought it was a genius was to support pupils like her who have organisation issues - so simple and very effective in telling her immediately what days her books are needed.

@barrabest Glorious at Portstewart this evening

Can’t remember who or where I saw these writing frame strips but I find they are the best way to get my reluctant Y9s (Y8 in England) to do extended writing - this terms topic - population and the one child policy. 🇨🇳

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

@polleyk2 This was done with a bottom set - Y8 (English y7) and for them this rounded of the topic nicely - with 0 pressure of writing and recall but also supported fine motor skills, problem solving, understanding shape - such important learning aspects which sometimes get neglected.

[Alice 🌍✈️ @TeachWithAlice]

This amount of card hoarding and double Y8 on the last day before half term can only mean one thing - cereal box island!
