@HelenhCarr 's book on John of Gaunt has sent me on a bit of a Plantagenet rabbit hole... other than Helen Castor's new book, what others would people recommend?

Just finished Frank McDonough's The Weimar Year - Super accessible, perfect for teaching and getting students excited about the era. #BookReview #WeimarGermany

@HarrysunSee I've used quotes from him with our y9s last year!

[Mel Thorndyke @mrst_history]

Any teachers out there (esp history) doing 100 minute lessons? It’s new to me this year! Any tips and retweets most welcome!

[Alex @MrHistTeach]

@history_sam I dont think so 😅😆

[Alex @MrHistTeach]

TEACHERS: when offering intervention, I dont know whether to:
1. Allow students to vote on what we'll revise so its more tailored
2. Design a timetable so they can pick and choose what they come to.
What do you think works best?

[Alex @MrHistTeach]

@MrsBallAP Very good point! Thank yarr!

My new classroom can get quite stuffy and the windows are quite small. I already have a spider plant and I'm going to buy a snake plant, but does anyone have any other cost-effective ways to help with this? #edutwitter #teacher #education

Don't worry if you didn't get the GCSE results you hoped for. You're on Twitter, which means you're old and it happened ages ago.

I taught the Edexcel ‘follow up’ question today the best I’ve ever taught it. Didn’t even do the question until the last 5 mins.

[Alex @MrHistTeach]

@HughJRichards Anything by Ken Follet. The Kingsbridge series or his century trilogy are some of the best ive ever read.

Wow what a book! Thoroughly enjoy this and its only fuelled my interest in U.S. history!

[Peps @PepsMccrea]

Should teachers and schools actively be trying to do LESS?

Let's talk about 'de-implementation'...
