@KettlewellMiss @mr_perez5 @GeogDogKernow Likewise thank you!! You’ve reminded me I actually think I’ve made one like this for living world, will need to dig it out for this year!

@mr_perez5 @GeogDogKernow @_lucyell love this!

Activity before I started using reciprocal reading: read this & make notes 🥱 Now 👇👇👇 "This 🧠framework is begun BEFORE reading... strengthened... DURING the reading, & reflected upon AFTER reading as students incorporate what they have just read into their core knowledge."

@clareehawkins mine started full time at the same age last September and loves it 😊 fingers crossed for the same!

My teeny tiny baby (five months) starts nursery tomorrow and I don’t know how I feel about it….

I don’t know what is scarier, the fact that atmospheric CO2 just hit the highest level in human history, or that it has gone close to completely unnoticed…

@GeogChat @amyleighsparrow what timing!😂

Here is tonight's 1⃣st question! #geographyteacher PS: Quick reminder that the question in bold is the one we are discussing. The sub questions below are the ones I was asked during my curriculum Deep Dive 🏊‍♂️

@geoteachrach I did! Definitely helped convince me to change university applications to study a geography degree!

Feeling wistful about A Level World Development. Was such a brilliant A Level course! Only got to study it and never teach it as it got phased out with reforms… Did anyone else study it?!

What might the content of effective feedback look like in the classroom? "Feedback should focus on moving learning forward, targeting the specific learning gap identified by the teacher, and ensuring that a pupil improves." Find out more: bit.ly/3iJGk2C

We don't need more time in school, we more funding to be able to do the things we already do even better. Why not fund TAs? Why not fund extracurricular activities? Why not fund school libraries? Why not fund teacher development? Why not fund schools? theguardian.com/education/2021…

the amount of work that’s gone into producing these Y11 grades is astronomical and it’s going to have consequences - people are TIRED and somehow exam boards are the ones being paid for it- change the words ✨teacher burnout ✨to teacher exploitation and see where it gets us

Nepal 🇳🇵 is amazing! “Cloud Avalanche” occurred near the Kapuche Glacier Lake in the mountains of Nepal. That scene is extremely rare, but a wonder of nature.

Evergreen blocking Suez Canal has fundamentally shifted the geography of the oceans: thousands of ships are now diverting along the 15th century Portuguese route round the cape of Africa originsbook.com 1/n

📢@educationgovuk announcements re. fieldwork * Schools can resume educational day visits at Step 2, no earlier than 12 April * Advising schools against domestic residential edu visits until Step 3, no earlier than 17 May bit.ly/3d7hOF8 @RGS_IBGschools @RGS_IBG

@_MissB_20 Mine was about this in my NQT year, very rarely felt like a problem! With leaving early it was often the minimum, only felt long if I had to travel in rush hour. Also not ideal when there was bad weather. But allows you to switch off and think about day, I’d recommend 😊

Worth noting it's only 3 weeks ago that the DfE threatened to sue Greenwich council for closing early, 10 days since webinars on mass testing, 3 days since Williamson promising no further closures and just over 24 hours since the PM promised us that schools were safe. Total chaos

@WoodhouseGeo I’ve made an A3 sheet for a GCSE question if you’d like a copy. DM me your email if so 😊

I’m going to be doing some work around modelling/structuring answers using ‘I-WE-YOU’ next half term. I’ve seen some amazing examples of worksheets etc. on Twitter previously and wondered if anyone was willing to share any different ways they’ve used it at either KS3 or KS4?

***NATIONAL TEACHER APPLICATION FORM*** I'm working to bring one teacher application form 😁 Petition to sign - petition.parliament.uk/petitions/3247… Please share far and wide to all teachers 😊

@hannahflower07 @McAllister_Geog I used a visualiser and ensured students had diagrams of low & high pressure, solar insolation and Hadley cell before completing the full diagram. Really helped understanding. Will also focus on creating a model as a revision activity at the end of weather topic too.

@AdmiralUK every time I try to log in, it says there is a problem with my password. I have reset recently and this is still happening. Please help

@keepgeogingon Thanks so much for sharing - these are great!

Imagine updating the guidance for schools to fully reopen on the Friday of a bank holiday weekend, when some have already been back a week and the rest are back next Tuesday or Wednesday.
