Literacy 📜

A thread 🧵

Why literacy?
1/9
Research for strategy based on @EducEndowFoundn @TheWritingRevol @AlexJQuigley @marcrowland73 ‘The Golden 5’

We are ALL teachers of literacy and therefore what common strategies could be translated by subjects into their own discipline, to support the development of literacy.
My Golden Five, rooted in @EducEndowFoundn 2/9

Really enjoying teaching our new dictators module. Using Dikotters ‘How to be a Dictator’ as the enquiry for exploring: Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler, Franco and Mao ✨ being able to compare and contrast is fascinating
