Dive into this engaging resource to lay the groundwork for deeper exploration into the intricate language of media communication Hello there, and welcome to Marshall Teaches, your go-to source for high-quality teaching resources. We’re Mr. and Mrs. Marshall (Harry & Claire), and we are passionate about making a difference in education. With over 30 years of academic experience, we are excited to share our resources with you. Our teaching resources are based on the latest research, including Rosenshine’s coaching methods and Fisher & Frey’s “I Do, We Do, You Do” framework with a proven record of improving outcomes. Who We Are: Harry: I’m an experienced teacher with a background in English & Media and Communications. I am currently Head of Faculty overseeing Business Studies, Media Studies, Computer-Science and Health & Social Care. Claire: I’ve worked with young people and around schools throughout my career, and have a deep commitment to improving education. With two small children, my passion and interests lie in science backed approaches to the development of teaching and learning. Using Our Resources: The most effective way to deliver our lessons is by following this structured approach: Low-Stakes Quiz: Start with a brief multiple-choice quiz. This is a quick recap, so don’t linger on it. Research shows that asking many questions enhances learning. I Do: This stage is mainly informative. You provide information and an example. Feel free to elaborate and differentiate, but keep it concise (5-10 minutes). Remember, students can absorb only three new pieces of information in one lesson. We Do: Use MWBs for assessing learning. Common tasks include “mix and match” definitions, true or false and fill in the blanks. If you don’t have MWBs, you can use a scrap of paper, or why not laminate A4 sheets for a cost-effective, quick alternative. You Do: Known as deliberate practice, this is where students work on the information you provided in the “I Do” stage. They can write a brief explanation in their books or respond to an exam question. Starter sentences are provided for differentiation. Extension Activity: Each lesson includes an extension activity to stretch and challenge your students further. Please don’t forget to leave a review to let us know how our resources have helped you, or let us know if there are specific resources you want us to help create. Thank you for choosing us. Harry & Claire.
