Yep, I design banners too😜 What started with a few rebranding projects grew into my biggest challenge yet — 6ft banners for my school’s Open Evening. ✨ Own your strengths 💪🏻 Get creative 🎨 And celebrate your creations once they’re complete 🏆

Can't wait to start sending these out to celebrate pupils achievements! ✉️ designed by moi. Printed by @vistaprintuk How it works? Staff nominate a pupil, along with a brief reason. The team will then collate the nominations and distribute the postcards accordingly.

Not many can say they've had the privilege of working with someone they've admired for years - I feel incredibly lucky to be one of them. Her kindness, empathy, respect, commitment, and passion are truly infectious — and I'm looking forward to learning and growing alongside her

Finally wrapped up our YR6 transition video – featuring some of our brilliant students showing the ropes to our soon-to-be YR7s! 🎥 Feel incredibly lucky to have had such a wonderful group of Ss assist me & am genuinely touched to have been presented with such a lovely gift!

Oh I do love drawing synoptic links with my YR11s to demonstrate how much knowledge they have gained in the last few years. They’re going to smash their Component 2 paper after half term #geography

Why does geography 🌍 matter more than ever? This short read for teachers explores how our subject helps tackle climate change, global justice & more—showing students the power of asking where in a complex world. tinyurl.com/3fyrt5bz

Jelly babies in can only mean one thing… help Ss see how populations change over time - baby booms, disasters & more! But let’s be honest, actual jelly babies sometimes mysteriously disappear… 🤣 which is why I use reusable paper ones #geographyteacher

😂 I managed to acquire a massive batch just before my local HomeBase closed down - just shows the lengths I’ll go to to assist learning Perhaps I should blog the other techniques I use to develop such skills… 🤔 #geographyteacher

Started my day presenting a major project I’ve been (quietly!) working on to my department head - she loved it so much she showed our line manager, who requested if she could share it with SLT! Absolutely buzzing 🐝 - didn’t think it would get that type of reaction 🤣 #teacher

Presenting pupils with a blank piece of paper & asking them to retrieve 🧠 from our previous lesson on the hydrological cycle can seem daunting, but when used sparingly with + encouragement, Ss rise to the challenge #geographyteacher We then recapped it together, so they could add to their original

Ss seems to think 💧 is constantly flowing around the hydrological cycle This little #geographyteacher game is a great way to demonstrate how water REALLY moves around and how long it can remain in the same location for period of time

YR8 smashed their tug of war activity this week to demonstrate opinions various stakeholders have of globalisation The class definitively appreaciated the opportunity to be creative, as well as complete a more hands-on task #geographyteacher

Tired of students saying the Equator is ‘above’ or ‘below’? 🌍🚫 Why not create some approved vs banned word visuals to help? Simple, effective, and a game-changer when it comes to such examples-style questions #geographyteacher tinyurl.com/4u43mus8

YR9 experimented with a variety of data presentation methods today to show the population of 🇬🇧 ‘s cities All before discussing the strengths & limitations of “their chosen presentation method”

YR10 summarised the politics of #climatechange, before evaluating how effective such efforts have been… #geographyteacher

Tis the season to be marking mocks As the final round approaches, and my Santa hat is officially askew. At this point, I’m scribbling feedback faster than Rudolph on Christmas Eve. My holiday spirit? Still intact because I’ve finally COMPLETED my stack 🍾

There is only one of two people I would choose to wear for #ChristmasJumperDay One being a national treasure! 🎄 #geographyteacher 🎄

Struggling to keep students organised? 💡 Here’s a simple & effective technique to promote independence, streamline checks, and align with school policy. Perfect for any classroom or subject! #TeachingTips #Teacher tinyurl.com/erhbbjs6

EDUQAS SpecB requires students to know an LICs “pattern of exports” - a great way to combine a data presentation technique & content Proportional flow lines meets distribution of Malawi’s tobacco exports (2023) We even had time to evaluate the pros & cons of the presentation technique itself 😉

Simulating trade with YR11 always goes down a storm. It’s also quite entertaining to watch how “countries” interact with each other as the lesson progresses #geographyteacher

When a student buys you a refresher because they know they’re your favourite - it’s a sign you’re doing something right, right?
