Super cool activity from the English dept queens @CamberwellGirls using my fav shape of all time! These bees know their stuff. We’re working with characters here in a collaborative PowerPoint in OneNote but you can do any concept or subject. IRL use post-its! #camthink #cggseng

“As in sports, the purpose of feedback is not to correct the last pitch or tackle but to improve future games. Yet, in many classrooms, feedback focuses on how to make the last piece of work better rather than the next one…”
"Feedback’s main purpose is to improve the student, not the work," write @dylanwiliam & @kscalise87. "Feedback that tells students exactly what to do, or worse, corrects their work, is unlikely to help better performance in the future." ➡️ https://t.co/z4Tr8D1Ks0

"In his book, he cites studies showing that regular feedback doesn’t typically result in a transfer of new skills or habits, but when that feedback is combined with coaching, the transfer skyrockets to 95 percent." https://t.co/BlUzztacbE

It's all about PROGRESSION 📣 If you're going to have classroom displays why not show how students have progressed rather than the finished article? In our CL HQ classroom we have a lovely wall display of work by students - we'd love to see yours! 🥰 #teaching #edutwitter

We laugh at people who still use Windows 95, but we cling to opinions we formed in 1995. Who you are should be a question of what you value, not what you believe. The best way to stay true to your values is to stay open to rethinking your views. What have you rethought lately?
