Dear @MichaelRosenYes, My daughter goes to special school and often struggles with new concepts and sitting still for long periods of time. Their new book this half term is 'Going On A Bear Hunt' and here she is listening to you and watching you read the book. Thank you 🐻

Unbelievably excited for this!!
I'm really REALLY excited about my upcoming session on teaching metaphors. This has been in the works since March; a lot of work went into this over summer. I thought I'd share a brief overview and some teaching strategies, and explain some of the thinking for @Team_English1 🧵

🌟First lesson on AIC🌟 I've shared this before, but I've updated it. I start with the plot. Surprise plot twists are lovely, but nuance and implied meaning are only apparent if you know what happens. At GCSE, students need a frame to help them understand character & theme 1/7
🌟5 minute Literature Tasks A Day! 🌟 📈 Little and often 📈 September - April 📈 Power & Conflict, Macbeth, ACC and AIC Each week explores a different theme and asks students to consider multiple texts/characters. Feel free to use for Y11: dropbox.com/scl/fi/307582m…
