Episode 20: Unlocking Literacy - Strategies, Support, and Skills for Success
In this episode of MYP Decoded, we dive into the essential topic of literacy development and its role in empowering students in today’s world. With over 80 nationalities and a wealth of mother tongues represented in our school, we
explore how literacy goes beyond reading and writing - it’s about equipping students with the skills to communicate, think critically, and thrive in a global context.
Joined by three expert guests, we unpack literacy through five engaging segments:
3:55 Science-based learning strategies to develop Literacy (first of three segments with Aoife Abushaqra)
13:23 Using data to inform practice (with Andy Turner)
20:29 Practical strategies & deep dive into some good classroom practice (second segment with Aoife)
37:09 Head of Inclusion (Ben Crosby) breaking down the effective support mechanisms employed, and explaining what learning and using language for, through and about learning entail.
44:59 Oracy, and also a look at Digital Literacy (final segment with Aoife)
Throughout the episode, we also provide tangible tips and ideas for parents, while making connections to the Approaches to Learning (ATL) skills that drive literacy across all MYP subjects.
