Description

Presenter: Dale Banham 

This webinar will explore a range of practical, classroom-trialled approaches to approaching GCSE and Key Stage 3 content in a more creative and engaging way. These range from ‘quick wins’ that can help students grasp a difficult concept to longer term approaches that improve written outcomes and help students develop strong substantive and disciplinary knowledge.

  • Creative ways to introduce new topics – from initial stimulus material to carefully planned mysteries that improve disciplinary thinking

  • The power of practical demonstrations – creative ways to teach difficult concepts and build strong substantive knowledge

  • Creative approaches to improving written outcomes and source analysis – from loaded language games to walking essays

  • Decision-making activities and stories that help students understand the dilemmas and choices faced by people in the past

  • Creative approaches to helping students remember the key disciplinary and substantive knowledge curriculum takeaways

  • The power of debates – how to encourage high quality and inclusive talk before writing

  • Creative outcomes – building motivation for an enquiry by providing students with a real sense of audience and purpose

  • Creative approaches to teaching local history
