Over the past few weeks, I’ve tested some ideas in KS3 reading lessons to make our independent reading more purposeful. Today, I started creating a reading journal for use fortnightly at KS3. I’ve just left the starting blocks, but here’s what I’ve got… #Literacy #TeamEnglish #Education

Charli xcx fans rejoice: ‘Brat’ chosen as Collins word of the year

A new definition of the word was sparked by the pop star’s summer album title, and made it a term that ‘resonated with people globally’, the dictionary says

I’m an ECT in English and this year I’ll be taking my first A Level class. Any tips and tricks from fellow KS5 practitioners? I’ll be teaching Eng Lit with OCR, kicking off with Ibsen’s ‘A Doll’s House’. #teamenglish #edusky

If you're a teacher, what are your thoughts on book marking? As an ECT I’m keen to hear from those more experienced, especially if your school’s assessment policy has changed. Do you use whole-class feedback? Mark each book w/ comments? Not mark at all? What are the pros/cons? #edusky #marking

Hey @edusky.bsky.social famalam. I’m a brand spanking new Literacy Coordinator at my school with a hundred and one ideas whizzing around, and I’m wondering… What are some of the best whole-school literacy interventions/ideas you’ve experienced? #edusky #education #literacy

Hi @bsky.app 👋🏼 I’m growing wary over X’s inability to moderate and shut down racist accounts and language, so I’m giving this thing a go. Hoping to find a strong community of educators, as a first year teacher who learnt a great deal from X’s edu discourse.
