Session Objectives Reading and Writing: Research & Practice To look at the new MFL objectives for Reading and Writing. Consider the development of reading moving to writing, showing progression across KS2. Demonstrate classroom activities to show the progression from reading to writing.
The 7 step phonic process is inextricably linked with the reading and writing progress. There is a gradual build-up of links between reading, writing and grammar. Writing consolidates the whole learning process.
National Curriculum Objective: Reading and Writing 1 Develop accurate pronunciation and intonation so that others understand when they are reading aloud or using familiar words and phrases Progressive Learning Outcomes Y3 Identify individual sounds in words and pronounce accurately in sequence; start to recognise the sounds of some letter strings. Y4 Read and recognise some letter strings in familiar words and pronounce when modelled; observing silent letter rules. (Applicable in French) Y5 Read and pronounce familiar words accurately using knowledge of letter string sounds as support; observing silent letter rules. (applicable in French) Y6 Start to predict the pronunciation of unfamiliar words in a sentence using knowledge of letter strings; liaison and silent letter rules. (Applicable in French)
National Curriculum Objective: Reading and Writing 2 Read carefully and show understanding of words, phrases and simple writing Progressive Learning Outcomes Y3 Read and show understanding of familiar single words.

National Curriculum Objective: RW 5 Write words/phrases from memory, and adapt these to create new sentences, to express ideas clearly Progressive Learning Outcomes Y3Write single familiar words from memory with understandable accuracy. Y4 Write simple familiar short phrases from memory with understandable accuracy. Y5 Write familiar complex sentences from memory with understandable accuracy. Y6 Write familiar complex sentences from memory changing words to create new sentences with understandable accuracy.
Reading breadth of progress expected: Y3 Identify individual sounds in words and pronounce accurately in sequence; start to recognise the sounds of some letter strings; read and show understanding of familiar single words. Use strategies for memorisation of vocabulary; be familiar with the layout of a bi-lingual dictionary. Y6 Start to predict the pronunciation of unfamiliar words in a sentence using knowledge of letter strings; liaison and silent letter rules; read and show understanding of a series of complex sentences using familiar language. Use a bi-lingual dictionary to find the meaning of words in written material and understand their meaning in its context.
The writing process moves through: copying words then phrases writing single words or phrases from a model writing single words or phrases from memory manipulating and creating more complex sentences.
La Couronne/Jewels in the crown Adapted from an idea at http://janetlloyd.blogspot.co.uk To demonstrate how activities can be adapted to ensure progression across KS2.

Follow-up Tasks. Choose/adapt one or more of the activities from today s session. Try to match the main elements of the task to the MFL objectives for AfL. Please be prepared to record your successes and thoughts in order to feedback in the next session. Think about what went well and what you might change , and why, if you use the activity again.
