  2. Contents • APP can impact upon student progress through its use for standardising assessment, monitoring and intervention at a curriculum level. • APP can be an opportunity to review AFL in the English Classroom. • APP can be an exciting way to re-invigorate schemes of work, lessons and activity banks.

  3. Activating APP into the Curriculum

  4. Planning Examples

  5. Formal Assessments

  6. Intervention Weeks & Personalised Units

  7. Activating the Student Response • Progress can only be ensured if the pupils are part of the process

  8. Current Student Perceptions “Our students understand and value purpose, and we must have a classroom system that builds daily on practices that motivate students through their own learning.” D. Kafalas (Inspired Learners, Active Minds) “In English we just do different things.” “I always know what topic I’m doing in Science. Then we have a test on that subject to know I’ve learnt it all” “We did lots of things last year, but I never knew what we were going to do at the end of term at the beginning. Maybe that would have helped me do better in my level”

  9. Student Ownership of APP

  10. Impact of Student Voice on Lessons • ‘Planning and clear objectives are important aspects of teaching - but then so is the cultivation of a sense of adventure in learning and reflection on experience’ • ‘There is a parallel between the teacher’s and the novelists art - to be successful, the openings, especially of either a school lesson or a novel must both disclose and withhold information’

  11. Learning Conversations and Feedback

  12. Resourcing APP AF Wall AF Arrows

  13. Modelling and Collaborative Learning

  14. Collaborative Learning and APP Questioning • Students must be taught that good readers and poor readers become confused as they read. • The difference is that good readers know when they are confused and they ask questions. • We model asking difficult questions to which we don't know the answers, and we publicly demonstrate our journey to answer those questions Wormeli, 2006 Written Conversations (AF6)

  15. Activating APP in the Classroom • Active learning shifts the focus from the teacher and delivery of course content to the student and active engagement with skills. (Gibson, 1998)

  16. AF Teaching Strategies

  17. Creating a Writing Culture

  18. KS4 Transition

  19. GCSE Pathways • Year 9 Writing SOW: Commissions • Speaking and Listening Units

  20. Summary • APP is more than a framework for assessment • It can be an opportunity to review AFL strategies • APP can refine and inspire new classroom approaches
