Yesterday I finished my two year leadership programme with @TheDifferenceEd. It’s been a rollercoaster of 2 years but I have absolutely thrived on getting to know these incredible professionals and have loved feeling inspired every time I speak to them. What’s next?
@Team_English1 who are the most inspirational figures to you in our subject? I want to create a display of figures from English who are inspirational - modern or from way back when!
@Morrisons I have emailed several times now and keep getting an automated response about trying to register as a teacher on my More app. It says I’ve been sent an email to activate it but no email received. So frustrating when at the check out and the app just doesn’t work :-(
@msonenote why has the class notebook tab disappeared from One Note when I open it in Teams, browser and desktop app?
@Team_English1 #disthist I want to try and put together some “how to” guides for the students this weekend (how to use teams, how to use emails) - does anyone have anything similar I can squeeze a look at before I start inventing some? Thanks 🙏

I've been using Excel to generate feedback for #AQALang if anyone is interested. Input marks into Excel and use mail merge to get the feedback into a word document. Tracker, example and tutorial here- bit.ly/38IbIdx blogpost here- bit.ly/2GjBCEK #teamenglish

Here's a compilation of ideas from the twitter hive mind on writing about structure for GCSE English Language. As usual, there was may to much to squeeze it all in. You can download a copy (and notes from previous discussions) here: dropbox.com/sh/f5z97m0wcxkdo….

On this dark evening, delve into John Mullan's excellent article exploring how Shakespeare conjures the sense of growing darkness in Macbeth.

@cbowles1504 look at this lovely list 💗 maybe we could add a few more to our if you liked “who let the gods out” list
This 'If You Like Percy Jackson' list needs to be updated but I have highlighted books linked to Greek myths: bit.ly/3fq3HtC

@MaryAliceEvans Hi Maz, I’ve recently read (and adored) who let the Gods out - it’s brilliant. I have been doing some reading round the Greek mythology that it contains but I’ve become a bit stuck when Virgo talks about the categories of immortals - who falls into the neutrals?
@Team_English1 Does anyone have any ideas or lessons based on transforming extracts from one form or voice to another? e.g Adrian Mole extract to a script
