@_mrDBu I will print you a copy of her article on ‘K-pop and Conscription: why do we only care when they’re famous’ when it’s finished! Great addition to newspaper club 👍🏻

Obsession with timings, exam technique, and homework is paying off! Students directed to have a time plan before they write and mark time per paragraph as they write.

Who wants a free class set of #TheQuotationBank to begin the new term? One of our team made a video about us. If you watch it they will smile, but if you watch AND retweet it by Sunday 5pm, one lucky retweeter will get a free class set of their choice! Have an explore here https://t.co/IkeMdDJUI6

@LauraLolder Thank you so much for these! So helpful when wanting to practise with Y11 and endlessly running out of unseen stimuli! 💕

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

The start of fixing a Y11 problem of taking an article’s meaning too symbolically when looking for a wider angle. Basic, wider, too far thematically! Happy with the concept’s impact so far

*NEW* Gapless instruction vs 'teaching to the top' https://t.co/eki8VnzwbW

@MissLewis202 @Team_English1 Their character has committed a crime and has fled to a new place (could be the picture given in exam if applicable). Sky, zoom, describe character (all with clues of what the crime is), then revealed at the end

WEEK WIN: My Y11 class have been quiet to their detriment so far this year (there are bigger problems I know). After encouraging a little bit of talk each day this week, this HPL task really got them talking ☺️

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

Refreshed my knowledge of R+J over the summer ready to challenge both myself and my Year 11s! Could never find decent quote banks, so made my own. DM me your email address if you want the editable version 📚

After a hate-hate relationship with edutwitter during the pandemic, I’m hoping to get back to seeing amazing ideas and connecting with amazing educators 🤞🏼#BackToSchool

@kaylou Trying out mentimeter with Y11 before their assessment today. Thanks for the idea! 🥳

Year 9 giving me hope today 🌎🌈 Today we debated this topic in preparation to read The Yellow Wallpaper 📒

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

Avoiding Twitter at the minute. Anyone else getting a lot of ‘Recommended Tweets’ about people who are losing parents? Having lost a parent recently, this is so triggering for me.

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

It’s taken me a while to embrace the challenges of online learning but today I finally felt like I was teaching somewhat effectively 🥳
Microsoft form starters to inform the rest of the lesson, adding to the chat simultaneously, and Spiral plenaries are winning for me.

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

@WissonLouise Can I give you feedback on your Microsoft Form CPD via Microsoft Form?

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

@MrsClarkEnglish @Mathew_Lynch44 @Team_English1 @MrJones95_Eng love this!

[Alice Dale @teachingdaley]

@MissTalbot2 Turns out to be a divisive book. Me and my friend love it and you and another friend said “meh” 🧐
