Today, I visited a school that I’ve been supporting. Prior to September they relied on cold call & mini whiteboards. In September they launched ‘I say you say’ and ‘choral response’. So much joy & energy in every classroom. I’ve also found unexpected benefits of these strategies:

Tears man, I actually can’t be asked anymore.
2 of the same incidents in 2 weeks with 2 completely different outcomes.
Arsenal denied a clear penalty, the reffing in the country STINKS ❌
Last week Sanchez got a touch on the ball but it was still a red card and foul. We get consistently robbed by the PGMOL.

Banning mobile phones in Dutch secondary schools has positive impact:
➡️ 75 % observe better concentration
➡️ 59 % note a more positive social atmosphere
➡️ 28 % see enhanced academic performance.
➡️ special educational settings saw benefits too
Primary schools, which already had low phone use, reported modest benefits, 23 % noticed improved pupil wellbeing and classroom climate, with minimal enforcement issues
However, nearly half cite increased workload for policy enforcement, and some report rises in disruptive behaviour.

Distractions consume more learning time than we tend to think.

✍️✍️ New blog from me - The first in a long time and one of three in a series on Adaptive Teaching. This one looks at what adaptive teaching is and what this might look like during explanations and modelling. ✍️✍️ innerdrive.co.uk/blog/adapti…

Today I used 'I say you say' with the key word "travelling" (in 🏀), followed by explaining the definition, Turn and Talk to get students to rehearse definition, feedback from sample, reintroduce key words "flow" and "more than two steps", rehearse again

Great post. Two strategies I'm keen on using more and more in my praxtice
*New post!* Choral response & 'I Say You Say' are two techniques I use with high frequency during my explanations. Although they seem simple, there is a lot of thinking behind them.

As a SENDCO, you need to know what is going on in class. You need to make sure students are receiving quality-first teaching. You need to be able to diagnose where this isn’t happening so you can support teachers to develop their practice.

This is splendid for two and a half minutes of teaching. Ratio, assessment and habits of attention all 👌
Another Friday, another wonderful clip of the week. Here is a lovely snippet of Y7 French. #workhardbekind @GreenshawTrust
