Improving Literacy with ICT: Ideas and Resources for Teaching Ages 7-12

Improving Literacy
with ICT is
intended as a source book of ideas that you can adapt to suit your needs - this
is not a collection of lesson plans. The approaches described in the book are
applicable to a wide range of cross-curricular situations and a table is
included to indicate some of these.

Many
of the activities lend themselves to pupils working in pairs and small groups,
as ICT can encourage discussion and group decision-making. Most activities are
followed by 'Development' and 'Differentiation' sections, offering ideas to
help you to do just that - build on what you have already done or adapt the
activity to suit differing abilities.

All
the activities use commonly-available software and are available online so that
you can make them your own and display them on your interactive whiteboard.
