Hear, hear. The start of the lesson is determined by the subject matter, its disciplinary connection with the end of the previous lesson, the types of anticipation the texture of the content flow demands at this stage. MWB or not would be an absurd generic imposition
Not English teacher, but I'm involved in curr reform in NI & we are seeking to apply pedagogical principles in a strong subject sensitive manner.
English should not be subjected to a one-size-fits-all appraoch to lesson planning.
MWB retrieval should not be the default starter.

In Australia, teachers are being asked to plan and present success criteria, but do they really represent a good use of time?

"If you're not modelling, you're not teaching."
Making expert thinking visible is an essential part of teaching. Modelling does this but ever more frequently I see modelling being pedagogy's poor relation.

Just gone down a rabbit hole tracking down a reference for a widely cited quote from Lee Iacocca. Turns out most of the citations are wrong. Here's the full quote from "Where have all the leaders gone" (Scribner, 2007):
