'Listen Up' Strategy

Students are not using word endings (“s”  “ing”) in their oral language - need to focus on this so they can hear and record sounds accurately in writing and recognise and use the correct structure when reading.

Using of 'Listen Up' strategy was very helpful. It helped students to attend more carefully at words given - attended to it's shape, it's letters etc.

• Some possible Teacher Inquiry questions:
  • In order to continue the multiple opportunities for learning, what vocabulary support/listening/reading strategies would you introduce next?
  • Do I need to discuss with, or remind my students of strategies that good listeners use before doing this activity? How would this benefit them?
  • Will the words I have selected lead to students understanding the learning outcome?
  • Can my students use the vocabulary when discussing the main ideas?
