At A Level, I use 'yes/but/so' which sounds like a TWR thing, but it's not really It's a thinking prompt first, then a writing prompt It structures debate, shows students ideas are negotiable & that shifting viewpoint means different things in the text will swim into focus 1/6

Some great ideas from Elaine McNally's session Litdrive UK #LitdriveCPD25. Main takeaways: ✅Modelling writing is modelling thinking. ✅Teach high leverage strategies. ✅Share lots of examples and build in lots of practice. ✅Share non-examples to preempt pitfalls.

I always think #WritingRocks✍️😍☺️ writingrocks.bsky.social posts here are full of sound thinking, expertise & good advice. (I'm not being paid to say this!) The emphasis on teaching the skills of writing in the context of intentions, choice & pleasure rather than as fixed 'procedures' is very welcome!

Jennifer Webb Echidna Alex Quigley A few years ago, I got to work with 4 great teachers in Bristol on a scheme for The Princess and The Hustler. Set in Bristol during the Bus Boycott it’s an opportunity for history, local geography, politics & literature to collide in students’ backyard. x.com/litlegacies202…
