Teacher Notes - The Lychford File and The Literacy Hour
"Demonstrates how activities within
the Lychford File might be used
to deliver some elements within
the Literacy Strategy"
This is a simple guide designed as a quick cross referencing aid for teachers. It demonstrates how activities within the Lychford File might be used to deliver some of the elements in the Literacy Strategy.
It is neither comprehensive nor over prescriptive as many activities can be used over different years and the opportunities are seemingly endless!
This guide has focused on the non fiction text level and has been laid out in the same format as the Summary of the Range of Work for Each Term.
In general:
- Many of the texts, including Upcot Farm, Nurcot Farm and Lychford Times can be used in part or whole as unseen texts.
- The introductory activities which involve use of the maps, place names and local statistics can be used at many levels.
- The audio and visual tapes may be used both as intended, or the transcript used - again in part or as a whole.
