2. The @ErdingtonAcad has some of the politest and most helpful students I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. We should come here again @stoneman_claire.
3. Dual coding can do loads to support our students with the really great challenging stuff in Geography. @olicav’s understandable, articulate, and excellently delivered session showcases just how much it can support encoding for long term retention.
