Make sure you keep your notes as you’ll want to refer to them when you write up your answers to the first part of Assessment 3.
In your assessment template, in section 3.1 you’ll need to identify the top two overall literacy skill demands for your teaching. Remember, at this stage, we are just interested in the strands and progressions that are relevant in broad terms to your teaching programme.
You’ll also need to answer the following questions:
- Why are these literacy skill areas so demanding?
- What does this affect?
- What does this mean for learners?
- What does this mean for teaching?
- What does this mean for programme design?
If you’ve done enough thinking about this and you want to skip ahead to the assessment module and get started on section 3.1 you can. Just download the assessment template and go for it. Then come back to here and carry on with the next stage.
If you want a bit more time to think about it, you can download the questions and some prompts as a worksheet here. The questions are the same as in your assessment template in section 3.1.
