English Lead in SEMH Edu, progressively adding to my CPD 🧚

@HughJRichards I teach in SEMH- students leave earlier than mainstream and staff can finish shortly after. I am usually able to go and pick up my kids from school 😁

@TheCinesthetic When he’s in his parents home and the infected run up so quickly!

What an amazing response to this 🧵: more than 100 very short stories and still counting! I've consolidated what people suggested as of this a.m. and added links. Just scroll to the bottom of my resources page here: https://t.co/lD43cPApzY ...

We don’t talk enough about how hard it is to be a teacher at this time of the year. People think we’re ‘winding down’ but everyday is a struggle to keep kids focused & making progress. There’s cover, trips, sports days, EOY testing & no fuel left in the tank. It’s exhausting.

@ScottPughsley Shout out to my fave author @malorieblackman 👏 won’t be changing this for a while

[Sarah 📚 @missdeacs]

@LDNHumsTeacher @tes Thank you so much for this!

[Sophie Bartlett @_MissieBee]

This is ideal for task design in reading or writing lessons 📝 Tried it out with the opening of The Island at the End of Everything - it automatically generates a great selection of vocab activities, has word level analysis… I could play around with it for ages!

@DeputyGrocott I reheated my coffee in a mug that had a metal handle in the microwave (lack of sleep made me NOT notice which mug I’d used) and ended up with a horrendous burn on my finger after grabbing the handle… I’ve since fallen out with my microwave but I can’t seem to want rid of it 🤷‍♀️

@AdeleBatesZ Satisfying videos on YouTube! First 5 minutes of the lesson to settle in if SEMH students are a little giddy 👍

[KP @TeacherBusy]

It’s worth school staff being aware of the name Andrew Tate at the start of the new school year. With 11 Billion views on TikTok he is spouting dangerous misogynistic and homophobic abuse daily & some of his views are from boys as young as 13.

Reading this made my holiday trip really enjoyable, if you like dystopian fiction with a disturbing twist at the end, read read read! Any other book recommendations similar let me know, feel lost now I’ve finished it 😵‍💫📚

[Sarah 📚 @missdeacs]

@Kath294960362 @Ryanair The exact one!

Impostor syndrome: “I don't know what I'm doing. It's only a matter of time until everyone finds out."

Growth mindset: "I don't know what I'm doing yet. It's only a matter of time until I figure it out."

The highest form of self-confidence is believing in your ability to learn.

@MissWilliams685 @MrTs_NQTs I’m towards the end of my first ECT year and as English Lead in a SEN school- I had the same thought before I started but the amount of support and mentoring I’ve received has helped. DM me if you like! ☺️
