@LauraLolder Honestly feels like we’ve blinked twice at most since September 🤯

How are we here already... Prepping final resources for exam boosters and warm ups in the next few weeks.

First half term of the year ✅ so ready for the break and to finally have the space to think about all the things that I need to do next half term 😂

@LauraLolder Oooh! What an excellent find!

ENGLISH TEACHERS AND HODS OF THE LAND 🚨 Have you seen that Exampro has changed the papers to the new Language specification, meaning there are lots of Q3 examples, and obviously Exampro is from AQA... I can't believe this hasn't been more widely shared. Game changing info, imo.

And that’s the first week of the new academic year done! Always a tiring week but especially after starting at a new school and stepping into a new role! 📚

First day back and of course it was the day of the call 🤯

@LauraLolder @MissSSWalsh The mentor I would never want to forget! I may be a HoD now but I still see myself as your trainee!

@EGray_Teach @MissSSWalsh lol not my old trainee getting tagged in my tweets 😂😂 The mentor you are never allowed to forget 🙃🙃🙃

@MissSSWalsh @LauraLolder What an amazing resource 😍

@LauraLolder This sounds amazing Laura! @MissSSWalsh think you’re going to want to see this!

and then we're going to apply it all to poetry, to texts, to the world around us. I truly think it will be transformational - and I'll share lots of the journey with the @Team_English1 community as we go. If you want the booklet, or the slides shared (first 6 lessons ready) 9/-

@MrEFinch Bolognese/meatballs, chilli, sweet and sour, pasta bake- something that can be made and then kept to eat the next couple of days

Thinking about preparing my kid for life at university. What are seven easy, cheap, tasty meals you can cook on a hob? 1) Pasta pesto

@Lottielottielou Well that would explain why I’m so bloody tired 😂 haha thank you lovely!

@EGray_Teach You’ve been bloody awesome!

First year as HoD ✅ what an absolutely mental year it’s been. Feel like I need to sleep for about a month to recover 😂 happy summer holidays!

@LauraLolder I’m the HoD who doesn’t want to miss out on one of your exciting upcoming projects!

I have a really exciting upcoming project. I would LOVE you to tag HODs who you feel are doing a great job of running their department and contributing to the success of your school. I'm looking especially for a range of subjects. Please RT for wide reach! Thanks

@MissPaget Ah ours contains reading and writing as we are thematic but they use it as a base to develop a description of a place (either dystopian or utopian) if that’s any help!

@MissPaget We teach The Giver in Y7 as a whole text for our dystopian unit

Anyone still recruiting after the 'transfer window'? If you're looking and in Hertfordshire area look us up! @Ridgeway_AC Maths HOD, English 2nd, Science teacher, Humanities teacher, HOD technology or technology teacher. Lovely school with a big heart!

@malteasergirl Thank you! X

@EGray_Teach Ah hope all goes smoothly tomorrow xx

I’m really not sure how it’s the first English exam tomorrow as I started my new job as HoD in September and I’ve only blinked twice since then 🤯
