This week our Geography department took 89 YR11 students to Cuerden Valley Park to measure the width, depth and velocity of the River Lostock.
Unlike last year, the weather was glorious ☀️ and most importantly no one fell in! #InspireCareAchieve
I'm definitely guilty of 'just' teaching the 4 erosion types & moving on (definitions, checks for understanding & done) so it was great to use this short activity from 1 of our schools when I taught Y10 today- got them thinking in a different way about erosion🌊#geographyteacher

Fantastic day at #rEDWarr2024 yesterday. Some highlights - @FunkyPedagogy talking about T&L not always being “The Thing..” what makes teachers happy and not so much from @TeacherTapp@jon_hutchinson_ sharing on through curriculums - a new passion of mine thanks @GSTSchools
@OMearaDay_L @researchEDWarr That would be great - thanks so much… I’m there tomorrow too so can arrange to meet you? Can I get your number from stephen or vice versa to be easier?
