Blog post: Disciplinary concepts - the next step?
Now we have disciplinary lenses in RE, do we now need to develop some disciplinary concepts?
Some thoughts: paddywinter.wordpress.com/20…
Many thanks to @GillCGeorgiou @missdcox and @josephkinnaird for feedback!

@kathrynfenlodge reminds me of a talk you have about how we read texts out load and how this leads to interpretation by students we might not even have expected! Still use ‘a theology of reading’ with students today

I’m assuming I didn’t get an alert because the gov have chosen me as one of the people to stay behind and rebuild society after the disaster? It is an honour! #wewillrebuild #whoelseisoutthere

In all the discussion about rules and use of TLAC…
What’s the right TLAC approach to deal with the next door neighbour hammering a fence in before 8am? Is it cold call? Or SLANT?
Or simply ‘What are you doing - stop it!’

Do that. I was going to write something but that sums it up brilliantly
At secondary, embrace your subject, discipline and all around it. Keep learning, talking about your subject and what you like and why you enjoy it. It's hugely motivational for students, and keeps you engaged and absorbed. Subject associations can help!

Enjoying the NPQSL work on how we prepare, implement, and deliver ideas across a school. All in the careful prudent planning. What can we take away from people to give them time and space to focus on the important job at hand? @Ambition_Inst

As ever, perhaps the thing we should be most proud of as teachers, is just how funny the students are on Twitter in their review and assessment of the exam papers!

We're very proud of the Lindisfarne Gospels, which were created in the North East. Find out more about the gospels in this evening's episode of Art That Made Us on BBC Two at 9pm or see all episodes on BBC iPlayer at any time.

What are the best RE or philosophy books published these last few years? @TeamRE_UK #rechat
@missdcox have I made this up or did you do an amazing your of the Holy Land for RE teachers?
If you didn't... I have no idea where I got that idea from!
This is why I think there needs to be so much debate about what disciplinary concepts in RE. It's so contested.
Think we will have to be like the sciences and 'show our working' and then discuss them more

Are these the sorts of concepts which might express how we think about substantive content in RE/RW?
If so, what does progress look like in our subject?

Most important member of the dept!!!!
Something quite wonderful walking around the @BSCollege campus first thing this morning with Alfie in the snow. And as for this Beast from the East, the dog wasn't scared, he just rolled around in its fiendishly cold flakes! Make sure you make time to enjoy it whilst it's here!

Happy to give some a go
RE Nerds - It took about 30 minutes to punch one up as proof of concept. It is derivative, but imitation is flattery whilst I'm getting my head around it. We could really do this. If I start a collective Google Drive for them, is anyone interested in having a go? Pick a topic!

I love this! Looking forward to using this approach.
Can I ask what year group this is aimed at?
I love the focus in #MakeEveryRELessonCount of incorporating greater challenge in RE. For example, getting students to look at layers of meaning within a text. This works well with both scripture and scholarship.
Here’s an example looking at Freud’s critique of religion.
