Dialogic Learning

In this module trainees discover how dialogic learning (learning through talk) can be valuable to pupils throughout their learning journeys. The module outlines the impact of strategies such as reading aloud and early phonics instruction on the development of language skills. Trainees learn how to create a supportive classroom ethos and culture that can facilitate dialogic learning.

 

This module covers the CCF 'Learn that...' statements:

• 3.9. To access the curriculum, early literacy provides fundamental knowledge; reading comprises two elements: word reading and language comprehension; systematic synthetic phonics is the most effective approach for teaching pupils to decode.
• 3.10. Every teacher can improve pupils’ literacy, including by explicitly teaching reading, writing and oral language skills specific to individual disciplines.
