Last Maelor School book fair post - the Year 7s loved the event&were so excited that they got to choose a book to take home for free. One year 7 pupil wanted to join my Year 12s in creating an edit so here it is. Coming soon… video book reviews…. @MaelorPenley @MaelorWellbeing

Nothing like a real life brief to enhance practical skills&it’s so important not to wait for NEA to get creating - short tasks&lots of them -took my Year 12 Media students to the KS3 book fair- 10 mins taking photos, 20 mins to put an edit together. Here’s Emily’s @MaelorPenley
