Hey #TeamEnglish 👋 I haven’t shared anything in a while so here’s what I’ve been working on recently. We have been focussing on teaching @DavidDidau’s Creative Sentence Types so I have made a display for our KS3 students focussing on the ones we have looked at so far:

I have designed this document to share with our middle Leaders to help them to plan their weekly department time. Incorporating subject specific CPD. This is adapted and heavily influenced from the fantastic example shared by @MrARobbins in adam-robbins.com/2022/04/03/mid…

I have two copies of Responsive Coaching to give away. Simply **retweet this tweet** for your chance to win one of them. I'll pick two winners on Monday (23/09/24).

@Nikki__Sullivan @researchED1 @researchEDBelf @rEDSurrey2024 @socwarrior @BradleyKBusch @Inner_Drive This sounds brilliant. I didn’t get a chance to come to tour session on Saturday; would it be possible to see the slides for it ?

Huge thanks to everyone who came along to my @researchED1 talk. I'll be presenting again @researchEDBelf & @rEDSurrey2024 🥳 I've loved working with @socwarrior, Lucy Lowde, @BradleyKBusch @Inner_Drive... And it's time for the big reveal! More info here: innerdrive.ebforms.com/54920762488258…
