I am an English Teacher at an SEMH secondary school. My resources cover a wide range of key stages and abilities to cater for the complex needs of my students. Often my resources will be designed to appeal to older students with a lower ability content, but they still work well for younger students also. I have a big interest in Phonics, low ability resources with a high interest level for older students, creating useful displays and making stickers to aid in my marking.

I am the qualified Access Arrangements Assessor for my school, additionally, I have responsibility for applying for any access arrangements, creating the folder of evidence to support the application, and speaking with the JCQ Inspector during their annual visit. I always receive compliments from the JCQ inspectors on my record keeping, so I thought this would be a useful resource to share with others.

SCITT ITT Schools Direct Assignments/Essays including Educational Research

(0)
SCITT Assignments I had a yearlong salaried placement in Secondary English at my home school including a half term placement at a different secondary school within my federation. I was graded Outstanding for my teacher training year. I was offered a permanent role at my home school for my NQT year before the end of my first term of training. My placement school also offered to create a permanent role for me, but I chose to continue my employment at my home school. These are the essay based assignments that I completed during my SCITT year, which you may find useful for reference purposes. If the topics I covered are relevant to you, you will find my references particularly useful, as these are a collection of pertinent educational research materials, which I found extremely helpful during my training year; not only in completing my assignments, but I found they did inform my teaching practise. Where PDFs are available for the research I have referenced, I have included them here, so you will have a bank of educational research ready to go. Where PDFs were not available, web links at the time of writing have been included. Assignment A Reflect on how your teaching skills and understanding of secondary education have developed as a result of your second school placement. With reference to: • Marking & feedback including relevant educational research. • Classroom management: Timers and Think Pair Share, including relevant educational research. • Use of resources and technologies, Accelerated Reader, library as a resource including relevant educational research. Assignment B With reference to educational research and your own teaching, investigate the factors that support all students in making ‘outstanding’ progress. With reference to: • Differentiation, testing and interventions including relevant educational research. • Effective questioning/Think Pair Share including relevant educational research. • Assessment including relevant educational research. • Marking and Feedback including relevant educational research.

Shakespearean Insults Display Shakespeare

(0)
A set of twenty four Shakespearean insults with the play citation. Not seen on the preview, but on the mock up of a display board: they are presented with aged paper as a background and the pack includes a Shakespearean Insults header page. I have found them to be a really useful way of engaging students with Shakespeare. My students had lots of fun using Shakespeare quotes to insult eachother and me (in a light hearted way of course!) I would suggest cutting the insults into individual strips for your display. Lookout for my Shakespeare Display Bundle and save money by buying the facts and phrases display at the same time.

I use these throughout my summaries and appendices, and whilst some are very obvious, some may not be. There are eight summaries, eight appendices lists, one guidance sheet and one acronyms sheet.
