I’ve been teaching Macbeth for seven years, and every single year I re-annotate the play scene by scene. Not because I have to, but because I always find myself discovering something new and valuable.

Shakespeare never fails to amaze me

As an English teacher, I agree with most of this.

Copying often feels like a tick-box exercise, designed to make us feel students have completed written work. However, effective modelling followed by students independently creating their own work is far more impactful.

I'm not normally one for banning stuff, but if I were made King Of The Schools, I'd ban copying from the board.

It's everywhere, and I see it in most lessons I visit. And it's a complete waste of time.

Read the blog for why, and please do share to the unconverted!

what is the point of teaching if you’re teaching to just get through a PowerPoint???

use the lesson outcomes and correct any gaps in learning before you move on. use your professional judgment on re teaching!

someone tell me they agree😭
