For the English teachers out there, this might hurt you like it hurt me. My FIRST Of Mice and Men lesson today with my year sevens and 1 minute after I said no spoilers, someone typed in the chat “Lennie dies”. I’m taking the week off to recover

Could any Eng teachers share their approach to teaching students how to independently read and understand an extract to put them in the best possible place to start then answering the questions for Lang P1 or P2?

On the last day next week, our y10s and y11s get to use their house points in an auction to bid for items and I told them I’d contribute my anthology to the auction so today I’ll be spending most of it copying my notes into a fresh anthology 😭

I went to a Christmas fair last weekend at a very sweet primary school and entered a raffle and I have just found out that I won first prize - an iPad! On Saturday it’ll be a year since my dad passed and this is a sign. This is a Christmas present from him. 💖 I just know it
