Super work from S1s. After looking at how people have practiced medicine over time, our pupils made their own judgements on how good a job they did, and justified their decisions - brilliant thinking 🧐 #historyteacher #historystudent

An excellent opportunity for someone. A great faculty to work in with some lovely, enthusiastic, and hard-working students. Excellent trian links from Edinburgh and Glasgow too 😁myjobscotland.gov.uk/397484?…

S3 didn’t just find out about the DORA laws - they really thought through the implications. Graphic organisers can be great #historyteacher

S2 looked at the challenging concept of historiography in social subject this week. They didn’t just ā€˜get’ it, they smashed it! For info, on Vikings, 2K1 are mostly traditionalists rather than revisionists. #history #challenge #historiography #historyteacher

Fantastic DIRT work with S3. Got them to review (marked) work, talked through mixed examples of each of the SC, then they completed the personalised follow up task I’d selected for them in green. Pupil aim was to see how much they could ā€˜level up’ #historyteacher #literacy

Most enjoyable activity of the week - AH researched someone who engaged in some form of resistance against the Nazis; uploaded their image on Teams; then told the class their story. Brilliant #historyteacher #pedagoofriday
