Abi Whitehead

Hi folks, anyone have any really great research/blogs/books they’ve recently read on student generated questions, please?

@engteacherabro2 Yes please to IB Lit A group! 🥰

So to international teachers out there we have an Edexcel IGCSE group chat, an IB Eng A Lang and Lit chat and now we are looking to start an IB Eng A Lit chat. Let me know if you would like to join / be added.

@MsConnellTeach @KentonCollegeKE @StarQusais @worthschool @HartlandIntl Good luck to these fantastic teams! We so enjoyed debating with them. Thank you so much for all the hard work you’ve put into organising such a brilliant event ⭐️

The Debate with Hart final is tomorrow!! KS3 finalists are @KentonCollegeKE and @StarQusais 👏🏼 For KS4/5, @worthschool take on @HartlandIntl 💭 It’s looking to be an exciting afternoon! Watch this space for live updates and results tomorrow… 🤞🏼🏆 #DebatewithHart #Oracy

@engteacherabro2 So happy and excited for you! You’re going to be fabulous & I’m super pleased we’re in your safe hands to guide us through the IB - Let’s do this! 👏

About a month ago I tweeted about going for a job I had little chance of getting...turns out I GOT IT!!!!!! From Aug Head of IB (SLT) at my school. There's a lesson in there...

@MsConnellTeach @Team_English1 Yes please! It’s amwhitehead@brightoncollege.edu.vn Thanks so much

@aussieabi @Team_English1 Great! If you send me an email address I will send over the information 🙂

In a few weeks I will be launching the third annual Debate with Hart competition - a virtual international debating event that brings students around the world together 🌍 If you would like to find out more or register your school’s interest, give me a message ✅ @Team_English1

@engteacherabro2 A thing of absolute beauty 🤩 Thank you so much for creating and sharing such a fantastic resource

The Y7 Mythology MTP is up on my blog...sharing is caring...STP to write engteacherabroad.com/ks3/

Lovely Twitter folk, I’m trying to help our Senior School librarian create one of the amazing rainbow book cover displays I’ve seen on here.Does anyone have a document with teen book covers sorted by colour please? Many I’ve found are for younger pupils. TIA @engteacherabro2

@engteacherabro2 I watched it on the plane over and, embarrassingly, blubbed my way through it! 😭

I just watched A Man Called Otto for the second time and still sobbed. It's just such a pure, wholesome movie. And I loved the book.

@KateJones_teach Congratulations Kate, she’s beautiful! 👶

Our beautiful daughter Seren arrived ❤️💕🥰 Seren is Welsh for star ⭐ She is wonderful. ❤️💕 I am so happy, grateful & a little bit tired! 😊🥰

@engteacherabro2 @mllegarf Even worse for me, mine’s still linked to my parents Kindle account…it’s even more dangerous with no accountability!

@mllegarf LOL - I think that could be my problem too!

So a Kindle paperwhite - is that the best one at the mo? I think I am going to have to admit defeat as a traveller...sad sad times.

@engteacherabro2 It’s a thing of beauty 🤩 Totally in love with what you’ve done with this unit & cannot wait to teach it alongside you ! Thank you so much for all the time, devotion & heart you’ve put into this incredible unit

Working on this updated beauty and listening to the Eurovision 2023 playlist - it was definitely a good year.

@engteacherabro2 Yes definitely the paperwhite so you don’t need the light on

Do you want to improve reading at your school? Together with @school_tracker, I've created a FREE reading audit! It takes 15 mins & identifies areas for improvement, generating a bespoke Reading Report with effective strategies. Pls retweet! bit.ly/Reading_Audit @GalcottGareth

@MissNWi @Team_English1 Above tweets have just perfectly described the attributes of an amazing 2nd & why I’m so enjoying working with you after all these years @engteacherabro2

I would love to know what types of things classroom teachers and HODs would appreciate from their second in dept? Beyond the standard duties 😊 @Team_English1 #TeamEnglish

@engteacherabro2 I’m watching this too! Loving it
