What is Twig?

Twig is an online teaching resource with hundreds of short films for teachers and students. To learn more about Twig and how we produce our films, please visit the About Twig page.

What year groups is Twig appropriate for?

Twig films have been designed to cover the second, third and fourth levels of Curriculum for Excellence.

How should I use Twig with my students?

Teachers and students use Twig films in many different ways. In the classroom, they can be used to introduce a lesson or concept, to summarise a topic, or to stimulate thought and discussion. They are also great tools for homework, revision and as extension work for inquisitive minds.

There are Learning Materials available for each topic, which can help you find ideas on how using Twig can fit in with your teaching.
