At last a Secondary School literacy resource that can be given to Primary partner schools to prepare their Year 6 pupils in the transition from primary to secondary education.
Activities included in this homework resource aim to draw on the literacy skills those pupils have already gained and to introduce topics for the English and PSHE Curriculum. The booklet is designed in a child-friendly format for pupils requiring minimum teacher input, and each section allows the pupil to complete the activity at his/her own pace.
The writing frames for Book Reviews, Poetry and Reflective Writing can be extended later in English or PSHE lessons.
The strong focus on reading, with a suggested booklist and information for parents on how they can support their child in reading activities, is complemented by a Reading Record. This will aid your staff to build up a reading profile for each new pupil. In the booklet, literacy and fun are combined in activities such as Wordsearch, Language Quiz and Time Capsule.
The sections on Book Evaluation, How to Improve Writing Skills and the reward in the form of a Certificate aim to provide a positive beginning for pupils and their new teachers, building a profile on a student's literacy as a starting point for target setting.
N.B. Purchase of this booklet entitles the purchasing institution to provide unlimited copies to all their primary partner schools.
