Literacy. Role play, reading aloud and oral storytelling

Description

At Redlands Primary School in Fareham, the Year 6 class stages a chat show to explore the feelings of the characters in their book. Teacher Claire Simmonds explains how ICT, drama, storyboards and oral storytelling help to make pupils secure in their language, before setting pen to paper. We also hear from Sue Ellis at the Centre for Literacy in Primary Education, who says that children who are steeped in literature echo this in their writing. This programme was created by the Video Request Service in direct response to a request from the Teachers TV audience. If you'd like to make a suggestion, follow the 'Request a Video' link.
