Identifies key factors involved in coordinating whole school planning to ensure continuity of instruction and effective recording of children's progress in literacy learning in primary and middle school settings. Unit is divided into two main parts. First, a section that will provide opportunities for students to extend and deepen their knowledge and understanding of the English learning area content and extend their repertoires of literacy processes and practices associated with teaching and learning English. They will also examine and evaluate the use of a range of progress maps that can be used to record and report students' literacy development throughout the school. More general issues, such as the moderation of standards of student work across classes and across schools, will also be considered. The second section will engage students in the investigation of processes and strategies for working with colleagues and parents to develop policies and policy statements relating to the quality of Englishteaching and learning in the school context. School leadership and coordination of English teaching within the primary school will be a major focus. |
