Thinking Deeply about Primary Education

Disciplinary Literacy: Unlocking Deeper Learning with Juli Ryzop


Listen Later

Episode 216:

This week on Thinking Deeply about Primary Education, I’m joined by Juli Ryzop and Elliot Morgan to explore disciplinary literacy—what it means, why it matters, and how it can transform learning across subjects. Understanding how literacy functions within different disciplines helps students access, engage with, and critically interpret subject-specific content.

We discuss:

  • What disciplinary literacy is and why it’s essential in primary education.
  • Practical strategies for embedding disciplinary literacy in our classrooms.
  • The benefits of disciplinary literacy for student comprehension, engagement, and subject mastery.

Whether you're a classroom teacher, curriculum leader, or school leader, this episode offers valuable insights into helping students think, read, and write like subject experts.
