A useful NZ site that " These resources will help strengthen your knowledge and skills for teaching writing across the curriculum and increasing students’ rate of progress. As students move through primary school, the texts they write and the tasks they engage with become increasingly complex. With strategic and focused teaching, students can develop a strong literacy foundation and make greater than expected progress in one year."

The site promotes the innovative and creative use of film in English language teaching and learning. All of the lesson plans revolve around the use of video and film to teach English. The site promotes cineliteracy, the ability to analyse moving images, and considers cineliteracy as a 21st century skill which our students need to learn. In addition, the lessons promote critical thinking in the language classroom, and encourage learners to reflect on values while learning a language.

VCOP means Vocabulary, Connectives, Openers, Punctuation.
Jenni Lainson says "VCOP is part of the BIG writing approach. You can't do one without the other. The idea is that kids work on incorporporating one of these areas at a higher level after each is gradually introduced, modelled, shown in displays etc. Then they, or if younger, their teacher, analyses their writing to see which one is missing or weak and then it becomes their new focus. Games, displays and LOTS of talk build up across the week to a BIG writing session. Topics might have been discussed at home during talk homework or in class with a stimulus. There are lots of ways to make the writing session special- music,candles,edible treats..kids love it and so do teachers." |
