Very excited by our new material culture enquiry on the @britishmuseum . It's been so fun to plan and teach this year. The overall EQ is "What Stories do the objects in the British Museum tell?" 🧵

Emotional farewell to my Year 13 historians. I changed my approach and gave them a copy of the @OUPHistory “introduction to” (rather than horrible histories) on the topic they wish they had studied more at school. A fab cohort that I will miss a lot.

This week has been hard. Isolation fatigue, weather horrible & Politicians complaining we’re not doing enough. But we were therefor every pupil we teach and provided them with the best distance learning we could. Raise a glass and toast yourself. Well done! #talkupteaching

Hi @SarahGavron, I don’t suppose you are free at 8:00pm tonight to discuss “suffragette” with the History Teacher Book Club? Would be great to know your thoughts and the decisions you made to bring the fight for the vote to the big screen. #filmclub #htbcfn

Wow. Two weeks. It doesn’t matter what profession you are in. We have all changed our working habits. Stay strong, be kind and offer help where you can. Raise a glass to every keyworker that’s kept you safe, fed and educated. What are you raising a glass of? (Reply below!)

Well done to every teacher out there. You’ve battled isolation, technology & supervision to get one week done. It’s tough but if we continue to share the load we will get through this and maybe build stronger bonds of friendship. Cheers! (Reply with what you’re toasting with)

This morning the sun will come up but Pupils,parents & teachers will be trying to navigate through the darkness of closure. Out of the three, the teacher has been trained to offer guidance. Lead them and inspire them with your courage. This is your moment to shine.

One last chance to set the tone to our pupils of how to stay strong in a crisis. The way you act with students now is how they will remember you during the long period of isolation and closure. Show them what courage in a time of confusion is. It’s a lesson they need.

If you are a #historyteacher and have resources available to others, Post the link here so we can collate in one place. Be great if @1972SHP and @histassoc got involved in this too. This is the time for teachers across the country to come together and support each-other.

Hey @FernRiddell I’m sure you’re busy stockpiling TP for the end times but if you get a chance to check your DMs and reply about participating in the @historybookgrp discussion of “death in 10 minutes” that would be amazing.

To help Year 11 get started with their revision and see the impact, I have created a “marginal gains” activity sheet. Revision broken down into 100 ways to improve ready for their history GCSE. They cross it off when completed and will get 100% better. #marginalgains
