Planning Literacy Around a Text in Years 3 and 4 - Webinar

This webinar will investigate what a text-based unit looks like in practice in a Year 3/4 classroom. 

Our expert teaching team will share how these units can be used to increase children’s knowledge about reading and writing, including contextualised opportunities for spelling and grammar, the use of language for effect on a reader and how to use language for different purposes and forms of writing, and thereby raising engagement and attainment in reading and writing.

We will also look at how such units can work together to provide a rich and comprehensive curriculum that enables progress and attainment, building on learning from Key Stage 1 to work towards greater depth at the end of Key Stage 2. 

This webinar will focus around the high-quality text: King of the Sky by Nicola Davies, illustrated by Laura Carlin

What will you gain from this webinar?

• An understanding of what readers and writers in Years 3 and 4 should know and be able to do.
• An understanding of how to use a text to plan for the English and wider curriculum in Key Stage 2.

A post-webinar email will include: a complete set of lesson planning for the focus text, as well as a free example of our Take 5 Home Learning Resource, supporting immediate implementation at school. The planning is taken from our CLPE Membership website. Find out more about the CLPE Membership.
