@BSA_Conference @MariaShmygol @NATE_diversitea @LondonLATE I’m looking for a few more contributors to the next edition of #TeachingShakespeare I’d love some work from as diverse a range of teachers as possible and on the myriad settings he’s taught in. DM me! #shakerace

We had a brilliant presentation by ERA @LondonLATE yearly planning meeting yesterday! Planning to collaborate across the year and invite them to a conference. Would love to know what #TeamEnglish think of the grammar resources + lit archives

I wasn’t at Lit Drive but the week before I was at @LondonLATE and I took away a lot! I think one of my main ones was the emotional connection that reading texts aloud can create which also aids memory. I also thought oral story telling and it’s links to writing was important

@mtptproject @LondonLATE mine and @pinklisa_marie ‘s children warmly welcomed today during the key note and workshops (as well as being the focus of her wonderful and thought provoking workshop!) and @galiamelon ‘s brilliant closing poetry reading

Just been to a wonderful workshop @londonLATE exploring the variety of ways primary classrooms ‘do’ reading. Phonics being a small part- guided reading, listening to stories, telling and retelling, drawing and playing. Phonics is there and useful but part of a wider culture

The pleasure of being read aloud to, worries about ‘just reading’ to classes, the emotional impact of reading aloud and being read to, reading aloud to check for mistakes & fully understand texts oral poetry traditions across the world #teamenglish
