Literacy
Most curriculART projects provide opportunities for increasing literacy skills.
See TOPICS list to find projects to enhance your current literacy themes.
All subjects of the curriculum are rich sources for learning new vocabulary and for developing speaking, listening, reading and writing. Literacy teaching across the curriculum:
broadens and enhances children's command of literacy skills by providing them with a range of different contexts in which to use and practise these skills
embeds the teaching of the literacy skills which are central to the language of a particular subject within that subject
enhances the learning of the subject itself and the attitudes of children towards that learning.
