Brilliant assemblies this week by Sara, Ushasvi and Riya (11K), sharing the #LGSCaring work they’ve done with @AikSaath and reminding us of the importance of being #TogetherAsOne. There are many opportunities for our students to volunteer, and become equally #LGSConfident!

It's the run up to Christmas... Y10 Geogs have started learning about Taiga biomes (land of the Christmas Trees): creating new producers/consumers . Short sharp generative learning tasks help reinforce the characteristics in long-term memory (Millie's below ⬇️) #everyonecancreate

Y9 #LGSCreative French students have been creating Podcasts to finish a topic on "Festivals"; all 3 tenses in the prepared dialogue, speaking practice (pronunciation) came from recording on iMovie; creative flair from music / sound effects helped them explore French culture!

Howcan we as teachers to recognise their prior knowledge, to recognise the gaps in that knowledge, fill the gaps in that knowledge themselves where possible: allowing teachers to prioritise contact time doing ‘what they can’t do’!
We’re considering a clear rationale for how apps like @nearpod and @Brainscape can be part of curriculum design that prioritises ‘Generative Learning’ - planning to deliberately reduce cognitive load, incorporating regular assessment of all students
