{{activity|Pair work | {{activity|stgw|: Pair work on using resources to support interactive teaching|5}}. Think about some of the resources you might like to use in your forthcoming lessons and discuss them – with teachers of the same grade if possible – or with a small group of other participants. It may be that you need to start gathering resources in advance. What things might you begin collecting? Where will you store them? How might you use them? | ||
