Hi there. Welcome to my 35th gems post. This is where I part 5 instruction ideas I've seen on Twitter. The summertime holidays are at nowadays inward total swing thus Twitter has been placidity this week. I hold off it volition acquire busier inward August - results days volition orbit us lots to utter about, as well as and then we'll all start making preparations for September. I'm off on a position unit of measurement vacation side yesteryear side calendar week (including an exciting solar daytime out at Peppa Pig World!) thus somebody volition cause got to fill upward me inward on what I miss! I tweeted my 10,000th tweet yesterday. I exclusively joined Twitter concluding May thus I retrieve that officially makes me a chatterbox. 1. Angle Chase
I featured angle chases in Gems 24, Gems 26 and Gems 32 . I find this type of action actually enjoyable. @MathedUp shared a whole charge of angle chases here. I honey these - they're a groovy resources both for classwork as well as for revision.
@mathninja3 suggested putting a permanent angle chase on the classroom wall. This reminded me of the display by @ExplainingMaths pictured below. I retrieve it would live on groovy to pose a large angle chase up, possibly yesteryear sticking record on a large whiteboard or a wall painted amongst whiteboard paint. If anyone has done this inward their classroom, I'd honey to encounter a photo.
2. Presentation Standards
I've written earlier most setting expectations for the presentation of classwork as well as homework. The start of a novel schoolhouse yr is the fourth dimension to create upward one's hear how to approach this. latest post about Analysing Errors is no exception. From September I innovation to start setting regular low-stakes tests. For my Year 10s, I'm thinking of a brusque weekly quiz (perhaps multiple choice, marked amongst Quick Key). As suggested yesteryear Sarah, I innovation to flat these quizzes A, B or Not Yet, amongst anyone scoring a Not Yet having to accept some other test. In Sarah's postal service she suggests that earlier retaking a quiz, students are required to analyse their get-go attempt. She's going to orbit them an mistake analysis sail that does these things:
I honey this post from @mccreaemma. It's most an approach called 'The Famous 5' that Emma uses in every lesson. When students move inward the room they are straight off presented amongst a task. The names of 5 students that begin/finish/engage good amongst the chore are written on the whiteboard. Their vantage is to exit the classroom get-go at the destination of the lesson. Emma says that her students honey it (I retrieve this would operate actually good for my students too) as well as it reduces wasted fourth dimension at the start of lessons. Her postal service is good worth a read.

I'm continuing to operate on resourceaholic.com behind the scenes when I acquire a chance. I've added some resources to my libraries as well as made updates to my New GCSE Support page. If you've got some fourth dimension over summertime to brand resources, here's a listing of topics that nosotros demand to a greater extent than resources for:
