Last week I watched a colleague use a combination of cold call, hands up and scaffolded questions in a sequence

It was fantastic to watch but was possible because of the strong culture 👌

Has anyone got something like a murder mystery or an Escape room/treasure hunt type activity? I need to arrange something for next week that is fun! Students will have 2 hours (one group will only have 1 hour 30 minutes) @Team_English1 @FunkyPedagogy @MrsB_English_

Hi. I am going to have a boy from the Ukraine join my Year 7 class. He does not speak any English. Has anyone got any resources so that I can put a booklet together for him to work through? Obviously it needs to be very simple stuff. @Team_English1 @MrsB_English_

[Mr Holmes @arealholmes]

@MrsB_English_ I'm not sure, but going to follow as interested
