@HeadOnTheHill @Mrs_Cahill_Geog @KaySocLearn We have kids who disappear to the loo for 5-10 minutes every lesson. 5 times a day. They take their phones, they meet friends, and they vape. It's not nice to say no, but how else do you fix it? Genuine question.

@EmmaNicolaMFL I've just done a series of MFL linked literacy with root words and prefixes. DM me your email and I can send it 👍

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@MrHtheteacher @AidanSevers Sometimes knowledge of MFL can be pretty patchy from KS2 (did a different language or not a lot of it) so I'd have to go with practicalities. Organisation, date, title,etc. I can enthuse them (🤞) about French. That's easier to do if I have to nag less about expectations 😂😂

@valleseco @spsmith45 When it comes to teaching furniture and materials I bore myself 😂🙈

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@RogersHistory I bought some balls (like from a ball pit) and made slits in them to put paper in. Red were verbs, blue were tenses, yellow were adjectives etc. and I threw them at kids and they had to make a sentence with those words/tenses. Absolute car crash 😂😂

@SholaMos1 And you Dr! Thank you for speaking, you are an inspiration!! 👏🏾🤩😍

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@adflaz I didn't post this to get into a debate. We disagree. Have a nice Sunday.

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@adflaz I mean, if that's what you took from that then okay. I personally didn't take that.

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@adflaz @SholaMos1 Why?

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@teacherhead @MaryMyatt @jeffreykboakye @johntomsett @FunkyPedagogy @jon_hutchinson_ @chemDrK So amazing! Thank you so much to all involved, my head is buzzing with ideas!

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@PickAardvark Understandable! I can't help but feel though if this were to continue that technology would catch up, in the same way online learning platforms caption teacher talk in real time - there'll be something available somewhere.

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@NickEd82 Yeah it'll be interesting to find out. I know that personally our attendance figures were up, because parents could join from work! Also, from a nosey parker perspective I loved seeing their front rooms 😂🙈

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@NickEd82 I'm really interested as to why you think that. I've really enjoyed the video chats! No parents wandering over asking if they're next. No crowded hall of people all talking loudly to be heard. I actually find them much more personal than when they're in a hall or a gym.

Get assessment right and reduce workload at the same time. https://t.co/EXiCxgF8Wf - an old one revisited

@Miss_LBleaks My favourite - "It's too hard" - I can't Google Translate the answer 😂😂

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

When I quit this life I would like,
"Miss do I write it in French?"
on my fecking headstone.

@NobbySimpson Someone hand that man a Snickers.

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@elvisrunner We're lucky it also links with an English poetry topic about English speaking poems from around the word and an African art project in art so it's cross curricular :)

[MissB. @letslearnmfl]

@elvisrunner Nay bother! Depending on the ability of the group we use authentic texts, kid friendly videos with drawings so they can follow along, gap fill and comprehension stuff. We justify it basically through cultural capital with inference and comprehension skills.
