Homework due for Tuesday 28th February is to analyse the Scooby Doo texts (available in the google drive if you missed the lesson). Apply everything you have learnt so far about literacy to the texts. Create a table of AO1 features that you have found (remember, you still need to label and use terminology) and link those features to an AO2 concept that we have learnt.
Some wider reading is available on the google drive in the Literacy folder. Also, I recommend this: Michael Rosen summary for a really good overview of the issues surrounding phonics teaching in schools. It's quite detailed, but for those hoping for a really top grade, it's very valuable.
There's also this that you can watch: Phonics screening video
You don't have to watch all of it (it gets a little repetitive!) but it's a great way to understand the system of phonics at work in schools, and good revision for some key terms, like phonemes, alien words, digraphs and split digraphs.
Lastly, there will be an essay to do straight after half-term, so going over your notes would be really useful and revising some of the key terms. Get those mind-maps and flashcards sorted now. You'll be thanking me in June!
