    Know a few schools loosely using it or adapting. Have you seen enquiring minds? link below

    Quick look. We used Opening Minds as loose inspiration for the SMART programme at Olchfa, and I went to a couple of the conferences. Thought the students that spoke were excellent. Didn't quite fit with what we were doing, but if I was starting again, this would be my starting point I think.

    We are going to be using this from September 2011. Any advice gratefully received.

    How are you planning on using it? Happy to give you some of the feedback from our experience of SMART.

    This looks interesting but haven't quite got to grips with how it might look in the classroom. I'd be interested in any examples.

  • What does it mean to be a good friend? What kind of friend shall I be? Who will I include in my circle of friends? How shall I treat my friends? How do I cope with the loss of a friend? What can I learn about friends and friendships from the novels we read in school? How can I be a better friend?

      I really like this questioning website - I'm going to share it with the NGfL Cymru team. DCELLS are big on Socratic questioning at the moment - we've done some research - I'll post some of the best sites we've found in a bit

    I remember taking ages to create a 'salade de mots' of words for A level topics. Wordle does it for everything & you just paste all the words into it and creates 'wordles'. Apologies if you knew about this.

learning literacy writing GCSE CARP PIE

    This was on TES forums - product of a tweet - This mnemonic helps students to improve their writing by varying the way they begin sentences, varying punctuation, and using relative pronouns. It also helps to reduce overuse of compound sentences. More commonly known as A CRAPPIE among the students, it can be effective in any subject, not just English.
