This week Year 7 took part in a fantastic poetry competition organised by our English department. Students performed their poems to a really high-standard and we will be entering 13 students into the national @poetrybyheart competition. Well done to all everyone involved!

📣 Just made this list of non fiction books linked to subjects - thought it might be of use to literacy leads in the run up to World Book Day 📚 #literacy #WorldBookDay In my Dropbox: dropbox.com/scl/fi/dfbtc04…

Students at The Gryphon read regularly as part of the English curriculum - 7En/B have read over 6000 minutes in the last few months alone! This term we are setting all Year 7 students a challenge of reading a total of 50000 minutes before the end of the year.

@stephnichols24 @MrAWGordon_ You could definitely just buy one and move it around - they’ve very transportable 😊

@prosebendell @MrAWGordon_ This is fab thank you. Can I also ask do they come with special software that goes onto the computers or can they go between different machines? We all have laptops!

@stephnichols24 @MrAWGordon_ Our IT support team downloaded the software and it’s available on all school PCs - fact sheet about them here 👍 5irorwxhnqnkjik.ldycdn.com/V500S+Document…

@stephnichols24 @MrAWGordon_ Our Joy using ones are all still working perfectly 👍 best things I ever spent the budget on!

@prosebendell @MrAWGordon_ Just found this tweet and wondered how these visualisers are doing 3 years later? I am looking to upgrade our hue ones. Thanks

@SophieWade_26 @hurricaneteach @EngLangBlog @Team_English1 And of course tons of Donald Trump studies 😬

@SophieWade_26 @hurricaneteach @EngLangBlog @Team_English1 Rep of Meghan Markle vs Kate Middleton in tabloid newspapers, smoking adverts over time, gender/power dynamics in Love island or other reality programmes, use of leading questions on question time, humour in Private Eye magazine 👍

Can’t help but think that someone at @asda marketing has a) been a primary teacher or b) follows @PieCorbett - two adjective phrases everywhere!
