Particularly useful tip from @EllPage_ when doing score analysis online (though useful for use with any PDF): open the PDF through Lumin PDF (linked with G Drive) so students can annotate scores with text and a drawing tool @hackneynewsch @shed_hussain @charlottewhela

Stunning work!

Over 90% of our students attending the majority of their lessons live online, 100% of our students able to access technology due to our laptop donations, 100% of teachers delivering quality lessons online. We are HNS-tastic !@hackneynewsch

[CaraQuinnLarkin @alarkinsong]

Great ideas from @HnsEnglish on how to encourage student engagement in online learning through recognition of wonderful work and excellent effort. Rewards are just as important remotely @hackneynewsch
