We’ve adapted our ‘Classwork Check Up’ sheet to a termly version. The whole year on one sheet! Mainly to reduce workload yet maintain standards. Verbal reviews, feedback and prompts take place daily but this acts as a defined milestone for both staff/students. #historyteacher

Learning Journey documents now made for every single unit for Key Stage 3. All vocabulary front-loaded at the start of the unit, 99.99% of it taken from the WJEC Everyday Language List with the majority of the list now covered by year 11. This is going to be a game changer next year. 🇪🇸

Year 7 pupils don't need easier work, instead they need richer work, with the right support. That's the thinking behind KS3: The Ambitious Years. Ofsted called it 'The Wasted Years'. We're calling it something different. /1

Writing feedback: took a pic of this essay and printed copies for the class. Marked it live on the board, students listened to my thought process and wrote my annotations. We used the mark scheme to give a mark /15 and students wrote a list of EBIs for their individual essays

This started working beautifully with my 🇫🇷 class recently, so I’ve developed it a bit for 🇪🇸. A3 printing is the crucial bit to remember. Space needed to write. ⚫️ addressed =✅ / ⚫️ not addressed =❎. 20 points available. #mfltwitterati (Working on a 👨🏻‍🏫 sharing link ASAP).
Saw a👍🏾Maths lesson this wk where pupils were spinning so many 🍽🍽 from different topics.Decided to try smthng similar this week in Y11. 1xA3 sheet, a range of typical essay-style bullet points,1 sentence response required for each 1 to address the ❓ v.directly. #mfltwitterati

We tell pupils to study, but have we actually taught them how to study?? Today I finished off my ‘How to study: a simple guide on how to study smarter not harder’ PowerPoint. Hopefully will help senior pupils learn how to study effectively ✨

**NEW RESOURCE** Today I’m sharing my grammar graph/s template. Students complete a bar graph depending on the category of each sentence. Can be used as a starter/plenary and is a great cross curricular activity/good for numeracy! #mfltwitterati 🇪🇸🇫🇷👏🏼📊
