3. Prep for dept literacy meeting
Wednesday's dept meeting will be focused on literacy. Please remember to bring with you a selection of books from each class you teach. We will:
- share students' work and identify
- common general literacy mistakes (e.g. capital letters, homophones)
- subject-related mistakes (e.g. technical terms)
- share what is already done in the department to address these issues - good practice
- discuss what could be done to address these issues but which isn't already done or widespread - opportunity or need for development
We will also discuss core expectations of marking:
- are teachers using the standard marking codes?
- are students correcting mistakes using purple pen?
- share what is already done in the department when marking for literacy - good practice, time saving tips
- discuss what could be done to improve or support teachers' marking for literacy
