The Island/Macbeth project parent showcase was such a lovely experience for the English team (and we hope the parents & pupils too!)
Here are a few shots of the event:

Here are the videos that we have found recently about how to be a brilliant writer. Some teachers have been showing them in class, but they are really useful for the creative writing part of the GCSE and more importantly, if you want to be an actual writer! (When you click on the link, you have to scroll down quite a bit to find the videos.)
Hello all,
These are our top quotes so far. Keep letting me know if you find a better one, so that we can come up with the ULTIMATE list. (The bold ones, you really need to get the punctuation right, because the device is connected to the punctuation).
(I’ve put speech marks round anything that is direct speech)
YOU COULD ALSO LISTEN TO MY LOVELY VOICE RECORDING TELLING YOU THE STORY (IN BRIEF) BUT I’VE FED IN THE 20 KEY QUOTES.

P.S. I completely forgot to hand out a little ‘how did we do?’ form at the end. It was so useful to have parent feedback last year to adjust this year’s event. If you did have two minutes (ha ha) then could you email me about any bits that were particularly useful, or any bits that needed a re-think? lanea@turton.uk.com
