Day 1: Teach Through a Text

• Book choices - selecting high-quality and diverse children's literature
• Curriculum maps - how they support subject knowledge and coverage
  
  

"It's given me the confidence to deliver the programme and increase my use of modelling."

Sarah, The British School of Kathmandu, Autumn 2024

Half-day Online Course, 1 - 4 PM

A half-day year-specific course, led by Hannah, covering practical strategies for using high-quality children's literature as the primary approach to the teaching of English.

Exemplification Text

The course covers the pedagogy and the approach but one section of the day exemplifies this using a focus text and goes through each aspect. The book we will be exemplifying with is Can We Save the Tiger? by Martin Jenkins. We will be looking at this online but if you prefer to have a physical copy, please purchase in advance.  

Participants will receive –

• A detailed planning sequence that supports the teaching of purposeful writing
• A Zoom link to join on the day
• All training resources electronically
