A comprehensive full term’s collection of weekly reading texts. Once a week, students read aloud a selected text/extract and then complete carefully selected active reading tasks based on their individual needs (predominantly identified by Accelerated Reader, but easily adapted to suit needs of your cohort).
A 7-week booklet of study for ‘Treasure Island’ with evidence-based strategies to develop comprehension, reading fluency, and other intervention strategies identified by Accelerated Reader STAR tests. Easily adapted to suit the needs of the class.
This is an adaptation to our current SOL and therefore, it is only from Page.60 onwards of the Wordsworth Edition of ‘Treasure Island’.
A single lesson exploring structure through multi-media (a clip of the water scene in Jaws) to track the events and focus of the audience. This is then developed into the text version and how to track structure in this.
A single lesson exploring AO1 and AO2 in ‘Not My Business’.
Slide 7 uses LitDrive’s ‘Differentiated Annotation Sheets’ - Not owned by me and therefore not attached. However, a great accompanying resource.
A CPD session exploring the concept of disciplinary literacy and how to support reading in English lessons and across the curriculum.
All research is in the notes section.
A recorded presentation for staff CPD exploring how to develop literacy and reading standards across the curriculum. The presentation includes researched resources for use in a variety of subjects.
