Notes on a Wasted Lesson: The Anchoring Effect. October 22, 2016. At the beginning of term, I asked a group of GCSE students to harness the awesome power of Google to research into the social and historical context of The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde. I duly provided what I believed were focused questions to guide them: What growing fears did the Victorians … More Notes on a Wasted Lesson: The Anchoring Effect.

http://learningfrommymistakesenglish.blogspot.com/2014/08/a-letter-to-english-teacher-on-results.html
Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Wednesday, 13 August 2014. A letter to an English teacher on results day. One of my most popular posts on the blog has been my letter to an NOT. It is here, if you haven't read it yet. Given the current state of play with the English exams, I felt it necessary to blog about it as we await the forthcoming results. Dear English teacher,. 1] The GCSEs and A-levels represent the teaching over the years and not just the last two years. Or has the teaching ...

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog: The Spelling Problem: finding a voice for people
http://learningfrommymistakesenglish.blogspot.com/2013/12/the-spelling-problem-finding-voice-for.html
Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Saturday, 14 December 2013. The Spelling Problem: finding a voice for people. For me, spelling is the thing that most people pick up on in a person’s writing. That and handwriting. Often during a parents’ evening, parents hone in on their child’s inability to spell or their handwriting. I am left agreeing with them. In attempt to appease Ofsted, I bet most schools have upped the amount of spelling tests students sit. We now have another set of rules i...

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog: May 2015
http://learningfrommymistakesenglish.blogspot.com/2015_05_01_archive.html
Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Friday, 29 May 2015. Big system, little system – put them in a cardboard box. In a rare moment of escapism, I visited a city this week. On the journey there, I purchased a coffee from a vendor at a train station. It was one of those open shops where you stand and collect the hot beverage at the end of a line. I like excitement and variety, so I bought a white Americano. 8220;What is your name? 8221; asked the lady behind the counter. 8220;Sorry, sir?

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Friday, 31 July 2015. Star of the Week – the black hole of praise. 8217; A simple device to motivate and reward behaviour has become the bane of my life. There is a deeper problem under all of this. I am not a pushy parent that feels that his child is not getting the rewards he/she deserves – okay, maybe a bit. This following exchange might help to highlight what, I feel, is the problem:. Me: Who got the award this week? Me: What did he get it for?

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Saturday, 1 February 2014. Death to sentence stems! Long live the sentence structures! Before I start writing this blog, I need to thank Anne Williams and Kerry Pulleyn for allowing me to put these sentences on here. Plus, I need to thank all the other teachers who have added a sentence to this little project. This whole thing couldn’t have been done without their help. A big thank you from me! 8216;Where’s Wally? Is technology to blame? Anyway, each ...

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Sunday, 19 July 2015. Washing the grit, resilience and sand out of the classroom. But, I have a problem with all this. We are teaching students that the magic gold dust is within them. Everybody is an underdog and you can do it. We, particularly British people, love an underdog. Look at our films, books and newspapers. One parent fought a school about uniform. The parent won. Hurrah! I think they are. Our students are resilient enough. They qu...I thi...

Learning from my mistakes: an English teacher's blog. Sunday, 16 February 2014. Frankenstein’s Essay – To improve, this letter of application needs a simile and some rhetorical questions in it. The more I teach English, the more I am faced with difficult questions. What coloured post-its should I use in this lesson? Should I use the whiteboard this lesson? Or, should I use the interactive whiteboard? Some people are never going to be convinced. So what are the questions? Yes, essay writing. I think t...

Yes Step into my school on an average day and you’ll feel it. But, can you evidence it? No Well, unless you have a magical ‘feelingometer’. Reading Point 1 – Cover. Reading Point 2- Transition.
