And so we reach the end of an exhausting term. Last night was #mentor development followed today by our @uonsoe.bsky.social #ITT #historyteacher s returned to us so we could take stock at the end of their second term & celebrate with a fabulously yummy #CakeyFriday made by one of their lovely mums.

Today @uonsoe.bsky.social the #ITT #historyteacher s were thinking about how ed research, learning theories & cog sci influence policy & practice & how knowledge of this helps us to make better choices to structure historical thinking & support pupils to engage in extended reading.
#CakeyFriday

Today saw launch of our subject knowledge enhancement programme. 4 rooms of #ITT beginning #historyteacher s engaging in discussion on EQs linked to C20th & Partition. A wonderful display of history geekery 🤩

And homemade #CakeyFriday from a group member who hasn't baked since yr9 food tech!👏🏻

Totally brilliant day with the #ITT #historyteacher s @uonsoe.bsky.social developing classroom presence and communication for our ITaP and watching some incredible microteaching -lots to learn but great foundations to build upon.

Topped off with a fab #CakeyFriday - homemade and not by me!

And on top of all of that we've learnt a lot from each other in paired and group work, reflected on pedagogical approaches that were being modelled by tutors, coped with a slew of paperwork AND undertook a shocking activity involving a coprolite.

Thankfully this all ended with #CakeyFriday 4/5

Watching #GBBO on catch-up (no spoilers) & we've seen Get Into Teaching advert 3x in 1 episode.

So to all potential teachers who also like baking, I encourage you to investigate UoN for your PGCE - I love baking & being a #historyteacher & will support you to develop both skills! #CakeyFriday

Amazing #CakeyFriday today courtesy of one of our #historyteacher #PGCE rs. We all feel very lucky to be heading into the weekend with one of these in our tummies. They have also helped us navigate the relationship between theory and practice, learning science and historical reading. 😍

Today was the incredible @salwilson11.bsky.social 's birthday, so we had normal lemon drizzle #CakeyFriday followed by birthday cake #CakeyFriday and I am now 96% cake.

Happy birthday to the best wingwoman. 🎂🎁🎈

It's #CakeyFriday @ UoN for the #historyteacher s and one of our wonderful group had brought us flavoured Chinese bread and it smells delicious. 👌

If it's a Friday and you're a #historyteacher #PGCE student at UoN , it means just one thing:
