Using speaking ladders to revise school today with year 11. They love this activity. So good for retrieval and extending sentences in a safe practice space.

Their enthusiasm is lovely and makes me raise my game for that last lesson of the day/week. #futurelinguists

Nice warm glow after yesterday’s period 5 year 7 French lesson. We worked hard using SBs and MWBs on to the topic of school uniform, adjectival agreement and opinions. Around five of the boys discussing on the way out what a great lesson it is to end the week on and how much they like it.

There will be two trucks offering different food if we go for that option. There will inevitably be queues but the food will be hot and the wait should be short.

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 25/02/2025

Research question. If going to a CPD event, would you prefer a cold buffet style lunch or the hot food truck variety?

Busy week! Delivering L and T assemblies to all years,CPL to staff on feedback & questioning AFL, attending our first High Impact Teaching session from Ambition, attending the Coventry Walkthrus conference and teaching my lessons, duties etc. I love my job but I’ll be glad of a lie in tomo 🥱🥱🥱

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 20/09/2024

An excellent first session of High Impact Teaching led by @kayrimmington.bsky.social for Ambition , looking at Culture. A really positive buzz in the room, with staff already having a go at the ‘upstream’ behaviour management strategies.

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 20/09/2024

A fantastic day - so well facilitated by the team. Lots of food for thought. It’s exciting!

Looking forward to my day at Warwick uni for the Coventry Walkthrus Project.

Great onboarding day with Ambition Institute. Ready for High Impact Teaching launch next week.

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 09/09/2024

Our access is super patchy but what I’m most disappointed with is that ONLY chapter one is working fully. None of the others are interactive yet 😮 oh and half the team can’t get on despite active learn access working fine. It costs so much of our budget it’s depressing.

010

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 09/09/2024

Any ideas from them on how to resolve these issues?

100

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 08/09/2024

Morning - I’ve DMed you as my message was WAY too long! It’s been a slow process - over 8/9 years. We try and work on no gimmicks and just good stuff that will work for our staff and students.

110

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 08/09/2024

And to take the bits that will make a difference to our context and to try and avoid the ‘lethal’ mutations.

100

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 08/09/2024

We do at my school and across our trust. We’ve seen where it’s made a difference and the key has been to not make it overwhelming for staff.

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 07/09/2024

Thanks! I’ll have a look. I do so many duties and walk so much around school that I defo need something better. I only need a heel as I’m so little but might have to live without 🤣

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 07/09/2024

Shoe help needed! Need super comfortable school shoes for me, ideally with a bit of a heel. My feet are agony after this week!

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 07/09/2024

Same. I had year 7 yesterday after a couple of years of not teaching them. They were curious, polite and enthusiastic. It really made my day.

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 01/09/2024

27th September tomorrow and I still won’t sleep well tonight. What’s that about??

Looking forward to getting hands on a copy!

Great set of videos from @spsmith45.bsky.social We’ve used these as a team to develop our pedagogy and they provided rich discussion and development of practice #mfl.

Woah! He’s awesome. What type of tortoise is he? We have a cat and three different types of lizard!

Really thought provoking and interesting blog. I know so many leaders who used to want to be heads and now don’t …

They are amazing for MFL. Translating phrases, creating own phrases, participation, checking for understanding and engagement. I think Adam Boxer posted on them the other day with a blog post attachment. I use them in MFL practically every lesson.

John Lewis (if you have one) is pretty good too!

Rachel Mitchell @rachelmitchell.bsky.social · 31/08/2024

We do the same. The shared aspect helps grow everyone in the team and supports new colleagues but we are able to have the autonomy to add what the students in front of us need.
