Primary literacy. Planning different activities

Your Playlist:

Description

Lent Rise Combined School has a two form entry and the two Early Year teachers plan collaboratively, reporting back to each other & allowing the plan to be improved after its first delivery. Katie Penny has planned a lively story for the starter: mixed activities including puppets, speech bubbles and matching words for the main and a recap about the children's ideas for further literacy lessons for her plenary. She plans for choice within the lesson by giving the pupils options but still ensuring that the most popular activities don't get swamped by too many of them doing the same thing at the same time. Her tip for early years planning is to take one's cues from the class and to be flexible in one's approach.
