@HughJRichards Hot water tap and free milk in the staff room. Ability to make tea in seconds often saves my sanity

I've enjoyed this regular communication with our families this year, its helped those difficult conversations no end. #historyteaching #edexcelgcsehistory #edutwitter

Being this close and yet so far from the Christmas break is obscene. What on earth is this scheduling. Where do I send my complaints please.

@lifeofkiran Cool personalised stickers are affordable on Etsy and break up the monotony of marking a wee bit.

Have been considering a switch for a long time and have just moved over to @NASUWT Frustrated at the lack of progress on issues like workload that totally control my life right now. Hoping for change.

William, duke of Normandy, defeated Harold II, king of the English, at the Battle of Hastings #OTD in 1066. Some surviving English leaders rallied around Edgar the Ætheling but it came to little. On Christmas Day, Ealdred, archbishop of York, crowned William king of England.

@LynseyFair @bmtlearning It seems like there's a gap here, for sure! Would be happy to be involved

[Jo @ClassAcademic]

Is there such a thing as a History teacher zoom network? I miss a community and shared strategies but small babies means getting to in person events is tricky #historyteaching #edutwitter #teacherparents

Having only really used CGP, I'm finding these really useful! I like that exam qs are interleaved and with the content @OUPHistory

@historyis_fun @MidHistForum23 It was fascinating and I've scribbled a ton of ideas. Especially loved the reading journey! Thanks 😊

[Jo @ClassAcademic]

Inspired by #mhf23 - how do people record and evidence talk in the classroom? For those in schools where work in books is king!
