Literacy progressions



What?
The learners can learn, practise and prove their capabilities for each Literacy Progression using our fantastic Literacy Hub!



So what?
On this super site, the learners will find a treasure trove of excellent resources to guide them on their learning journey.


When the learners start working on a new Literacy Progression, they highlight it in green to show they are growing their learning in this area.
Now what?


As soon as a I feel they are capable on a Literacy Progression, I will highlight it in pink for the learner.


I will also date and initial the Learning Progression to show the learner's capabilities.

Spiral of inquiry


What?
The SOI encourages us to collaboratively adopt a curiosity mindset to identify what is going on for learners and to develop some hunches about what is leading to the current situation, before deciding what to do about it.

So what?
We worked in habitats to work out what is working well so we can build on it, and what is not working so well so we can make changes. Click on this link to view what our habitat came up with to personalise writing with our learners.

Now what?
Now that we have finished the scanning phase, we will look at the next stage which is the focussing stage and then develop a hunch.
