Thanks @MyTutor !!! Very sweet 🤩

If you could only give one, @__codexterous @TamsinGrainger @HoDandHeart @GCSE_Macbeth, what would it be? @Team_English1

Favourite moment of the week - these y11s dual coded flash cards 🦂

Does anyone teach Pearson Lift 2.0? Can I ask some questions? @TeamEnglishNC

@Miss_GJohnston @svwithers 😍😍😍

The resource is at the link below and we have different ones for poetry, structure (eg. P1Q3), etc. Help yourself if useful or DM if you want more links! dropbox.com/s/hn5zz6gfg3pe…

IMPROVING ANALYSIS (a🧵 with free resource!) Something we have noticed as a repeated issue in students' work is them labelling a language method, then just doing inference, and thinking this counts as 'analysis', eg. 'The writer uses a metaphor which suggests...'

@Team_English1 looking for any resources to teach Step Up to English. @GCSE_Macbeth @SusanSEnglish you’ve asked before, can I ask if you’ve still got resources? Any help greatly appreciated 🙂

@MissBurrows3 love this!

Spent the last few days of term analysing our school reading data and am so proud of the amazing progress we’ve made in the last few years!📚 Big shout out to @missw_b who did an awesome job while I was on mat leave, and to our fab Head of English @svwithers for all her support👏

@kfosterauthor Definitely! Sounds amazing!

Would any teachers, librarians, educators, parents, etc. be interested in receiving a newsletter (maybe quarterly) celebrating and discussing all things disability & neurodiversity in children's literature around the world? 💕

Really excited for the students to get to read some of our new books!

@MissBurrows3 this looks good!!

Some of our amazing Lit in Colour collection. Diversity and representation should be at the heart of what we do in the library and I am so happy we have such a great selection to promote just that!

@LauraCurranBun @ThinkReadHQ Feel free :-) we do also use Lexia and have some other strategies in place ☺️

@missw_b @ThinkReadHQ I'm aware of ThinkReadHQ but not sure we could afford it. I hear its very expensive, even though results look amazing. I may DM you though?!

Please can I ask fellow literacy leads what interventions you provide for your struggling readers? How do you do this, is it part of your SEN provision, who staffs it, what progs/courses/materials do you use etc? Thanks! @AVisserFuray @TeachEnglishLit @Kathrine_28 @Real_Lanc
