After previously using this idea
at the end of a lesson I have now started using it at the end of each
day.

On Simon Mayo’s BBC Radio2 Drivetime show he asks listeners to sum up their day in three words and send them in for him to read out. I decided this would be a good way to sum up each day in our classroom. So, I purchased an academic diary and each day I pick a child to sum up their day in three words. The three word recounts can also be found here.
If Twitter is micro blogging I’m
not sure what this is! The children enjoy it. It’s another way of making them
think about their writing and at the end of the year it’ll be nice to look back
over as a record of our year.
So go on, get your class into ‘Three
Worders’. Text or Tweet them to Simon and he might even read one out!
