Sandra Gilbert, co-author of The Madwoman in the Attic, dies aged 87 The writer was also a renowned academic and poet as well as being one of the leading figures of second wave feminism

Yeah, I keep emailing myself - but a one page document is a better idea. Thanks

Ah I need to figure this out. Thanks

An English Teachers’ Bibli-blography This page is very much under construction at the moment. In fact, it's likely that you will be able to say that about this page for some time, if not indefinitely. It's designed to be a collation of b...

I'm new to #edusky and missing the bookmark function from 'the other platform'. I'm leaving a pin, or re-posting. Any other ideas? Thanks

This is SO useful! Thanks for putting this together 📌

I really like this idea from @MrRobHistory on Twitter. I’m going to try it with some of my students in English for the literature texts. Great to see how one idea can be utilised across different subjects. Thanks, Derrick! @teamenglish1.bsky.social

Hello edu-Bluesky! 👋
For those of you thinking about what’s coming up this week, here’s a thread I wrote last year about GCSE results data…

This is an overview of what I do when I get my data in… 👇

Thanks!
