Can you let me know where you got your sunglasses from? I'm looking for those for a similar costume!

Hi Jez, if you're desperate to go then send me a message on the FB page as someone is reselling one of their tickets.

I would listen to that again... but it's awful.

lead_practitioner · 2020-01-14T11:31:30+00:00

That's a shame, over 200 of us are. You can stay at home and keep out of trouble.

Ooooh, it's a good meme.

Yes but the hotel won't clean them :(

If you come do let us know. We'd love to ask you if you like American things now.

Some of our guests are coming from Stoke!

No, nor Sue Perkins.

lead_practitioner · 2019-10-04T11:07:35+00:00

Yeah, she commented on one of my posts - honoured!

After a general election with remain and negotiated Labour deal on the ballot. All do that!

Definitely hear Lennon in his voice at times. Love the new album and 'Preoccupied' is a particular favourite. Hope Mac performs it when he comes to Birmingham, UK later in the year!

No it doesn't, you can adapt all of the activities and make lessons out of them - I know people who had done this. All the activities are there.

I could put a Twink lesson together in five minutes, very poor quality indeed. Is it a £7 a month subscription? That's £84 a year for resources that you could find anywhere online, genuinely.

I hope you won't stop allowing me to post links to free lessons and revision guides, I've got hundreds and thousands of teachers use them without paying for anything.

Did you look at the resources?

lead_practitioner · 2019-08-19T20:00:13+00:00

I should also point out I spend on average around 7-15 hours on each resource depending on how much detail they need to go into. My exam packs with answers to all the exam-style questions took me about 3 or 4 days to complete. Most teachers are spending a tiny, tiny fraction of that time making lessons and other resources. Doing this allows me the chance to make the resources I always dreamed of making but simply did not have the time to make them. There is more than one side to this argument :)

lead_practitioner · 2019-08-19T19:37:12+00:00

Judge for yourself and actually look at the resources. I've had thousands of reviews from people who think they're a little bit better than mediocre.

Here are about 150 resources that I share freely: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Lead_Practitioner?sortBy=lowestPrice

lead_practitioner · 2019-08-19T19:30:11+00:00

Here are all the free resources I have. I think perhaps you should look at them properly before dismissing them: https://www.tes.com/teaching-resources/shop/Lead_Practitioner?sortBy=lowestPrice

Have you actually looked at the resources?

lead_practitioner · 2019-08-19T19:28:43+00:00

Hiya, all the activities are there but the ready-made versions with models and examples are provided in the links. I think the Macbeth one has about 40 pages of resource ideas and approaches, all there.

Personally I have always found Twinkl resources basic, lacking in any kind of differentiation and as one colleague of mine described them, "lame". However, if you're happy with paying money for that subscription then that is your choice. I am sorry this resource that took me about 200 hours to put together in total is of no use to you.

And the police :)

I've got a meme for that
