Wow, what happened to that gained time after my GCSE and IB groups left? This term has been hectic so there’s been a lack of posts this month. But here’s a small one with my most recent twitter highlights. You’ll notice a bit of a theme with the geography highlights.

Hope you find something of use!

New post on The Literacy Globe. @charlotteexton talks about the importance of including stories in the geography classroom, drawing on @patnoxolo 's talk at the #ExploreGeography day. A fantastic read. https://t.co/YTqy1JRVB6

"Neuroliberalism: Cognition, context, and the geographical bounding of rationality" – our new paper may be of interest to some and is Open Access. In it we explore why context matters within human decision-making, but not in the ways you may expect https://t.co/xHMuDeqjjj

History

Has your history dept used the "Englands Immigrants" database in its SoWs yet? Take a look; it's fabulous https://t.co/yZOaqg22AV and for a superb model of a 5-lesson sequence built round a damn good EQ inspired by it, see Diana Laffin's 'Cunning Plan' in the latest @histassoc TH pic.twitter.com/j7ELIr5sZ0

Other Subjects

My current favourite resource! 🤓 Students unpick the text and categorize. Helps with understanding of the key text, bridging the vocabulary gap in terms of meta-language, and allowing student agency in the classroom! 💃🏽🇨🇵👩‍🏫 #mfltwitterati #mflchat pic.twitter.com/mOM2DnMFuB

After reading one of @Doug_Lemov's field notes, I've started doing this on the first day of the class. Letting students know why I do what I do in the class. #teachlikeachampion #firstclass #smallteaching pic.twitter.com/ObW4GDegmF
