Hey @teachertapp.bsky.social, what happened to the TLDR on the TT Daily Read each day? It seemed a little short lived, or were they just particularly long daily reads?

Has any Geography teacher created a ‘resource hub’ on Teams or something similar to give students access to things for revision/testing etc?
If so, what resources have you included?

I’ve usually gone with “shirts, not skirts” and the lads usually laugh and sort it out…

Thanks, Alistair. Really helpful to read that and it confirms some of my thoughts. I’m going to have a play around and may ask questions as I go - thanks to those of you who have offered to talk about it!

Sea Ice Aware Visualize monthly changes in Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent

How’s this one I’ve used that looks at the Arctic and Antarctic sea ice extent?

Thanks Dawn - that’s a real help. Good to collate some opinions and good to look at what people are doing in other subjects too.

Thanks, Mark!

I’ve always been anti booklets but I’m looking at saving lesson time and having a greater focus on students learning and practising in lesson rather than ‘doing’

Would love to talk to someone about their rationale and how you find them in practice.

Has anyone gone down a route of teaching using curriculum booklets even when it’s not a whole-school requirement?
Seriously thinking about investing the time into creating them for GCSE but not 100% convinced yet.

Hello Edusky world!
Just made the jump from the other place! Will take a while to get things up and running but we’re hoping to share more from our blog and other useful resources for #GeographyTeacher here.

I’ve just got set up with the GA Physical Geography SIG on here.
Do follow us at @gapgsig.bsky.social

That looks brill, thanks for sharing!

I found this great interactive program called BiomeViewer!

A great tool to use in the classroom.

Metacognition is a staple buzzword in schools now, but what does successful practice actually look like? @mrmetacognition.bsky.social explains brilliantly. @theeef.bsky.social @evidencebasededu.bsky.social #metacognition #pedagogy #teachingtoolkit #research

Has anyone created a list of secondary teachers to follow for Teaching and Learning / Assessment conversations?

-4 on the drive in this morning, but there are worse places to come to work!

Just a little nudge that the best way to have your views heard is to submit to the call for evidence.

I massively appreciate that you’re insanely busy and it’s a long survey (you don’t have to respond to every question!).

But this is a big opportunity for positive change…

Make sure you get your views in before this closes on Friday!

This is fantastic! I was blown away by it when Catherine mentioned it a couple of years ago.
I couldn’t live without it in lessons now!

Any #RE or #History teachers on here? I am well aware of the amazing #GeographyTeacher community but have never really connected with any other teachers.

Looking to support my RE and History teams in school as best I can!

Thanks, that’s helpful.
Are all of these marked by the teacher, or do students self/peer mark the low tariff ones in a lesson? Just trying to visualise how it works!

Thanks.
How is this checked/marked/feedback given?

Would appreciate a discussion with any #geographyteacher about what you do for homework at GCSE.

Looking to change what we do to ensure more consistency and build it more into a routine for both staff and students.

What did the snowball Earth look like? Entire continents, even in the tropics, seem to have been under sheets of ice.

Just made the jump. Liking the look of this already though. Very much like the good old days…
