Playing around with AI to create some guided reading resources for the ‘Power & Conflict’ anthology in the style of @SPBeale’s history template. The essays need a bit of editing but they may be of use for Year 10/11. Use/chuck/change as you see fit! @Team_English1 dropbox.com/scl/fo/a6tjggkwi…

Wednesday's quote: “There are lots of great jobs you can do in society, but none of them are quite as great, or quite as important, or as profound as the life of a teacher” Doug Lemov

You know what's gross? Women get addressed by Miss, Mrs., or Ms. because society deems it important to know if she is single, married or widowed. Men, on the other hand, are only addressed as Mr. because their relationship to women does not affect their social status.

This is why Donald Trump and the Republicans are TERRIFIED of Vice President Kamala Harris. She makes MAGA look like fools. “Can you think of any laws that give the government the power to make decisions about the male body?" xitter.cf/KaivanShroff/status/17…

They partied , they bet on elections , they crashed the economy, they broke every public service, they destroyed integrity and honesty in public office , they paid their mates billions , they put their friends in the House of Lords, they gave their cronies knighthoods, they went into the jungle , they lied again and again, they were convicted by police, they went on holiday when they shouldn’t and they have the cheek to question Keir Starmer’s work ethic. I would never take anything for granted but I hope they are annihilated on Thursday. The worst people and government we have ever had! P.S good afternoon all 😊❤️

Quotation pairing/matching resource is finished for Macbeth and A Christmas Carol - there are quotation pair ups but also quotations that fit into motifs/themes for both texts. I have printed mine for Y11 in small, A5 booklets. Hope they help someone! dropbox.com/scl/fo/djw3bzcwb…

Here’s an alternative anthology for the AQA P+C cluster. Includes 2 copies of each poem, prompts for analysis & QR codes for academic reading. Format and prompts by @__codexterous & review pages by @FunkyPedagogy. Both have kindly allowed me to share 😊 dropbox.com/sh/3ybqzxog7xp3r…

@FacingHistoryUK have some amazing resources on AIC. Look at these lessons. I used part of the lesson on exploring social inequality today. Would highly recommend

Basic MP salary in 2010: £65,738 Basic MP salary in 2023: £86,584 Undoubtedly, if doctors, nurses, radiographers, teachers, rail workers etc would’ve had a similar increase there wouldn’t be a sniff of a strike. Interesting priorities.
