Whoever criticises lessons for being ‘too teacher led’ or as having ‘too much teacher talk’ doesn’t know anything about teaching and learning and is a massive crap-weasel. #edutwitter

✍️ Understanding the challenges faced by SEND students in writing is critical for all teachers. This collaboration with @MrFerguson85 offers key information and important strategies to support these learners. If you missed Martin’s talk at @researchEDBelf then you need a copy! 🔄 Please REPOST before grabbing it for FREE from my website: jamieleeclark.com/graphics
I will post a link the presentation soon from today's @researchEDBelf presentation and I will email those who shared their email addresses with me. Please DM/tweet me if I missed you today and would like a copy 👍🏻 Many thanks to all who attended and special shout out to @XpatEducator for creating a SEND and Writing One Pager and for his excellent One Pagers that I shared today - this disappeared very quickly 😂 #MagpieTeachers

Any teacher had students taking photos of them or use photos they managed to get from social media, then share in a year group WhatsApp. Intention is to stir up trouble. What did your school do? #teachertwitter #edutwitter #education
