Literacy and English

Experiences and outcomes

The development of literacy skills plays an important role in all learning.

I develop and extend my literacy skills when I have opportunities to:

• communicate, collaborate and build relationships

• reflect on and explain my literacy and thinking skills, using feedback to help me improve and sensitively provide useful feedback for others

• engage with and create a wide range of texts[1] in different media, taking advantage of the opportunities offered by ICT

• develop my understanding of what is special, vibrant and valuable about my own and other cultures and their languages

• explore the richness and diversity of language[2], how it can affect me, and the wide range of ways in which I and others can be creative

• extend and enrich my vocabulary through listening, talking, watching and reading.

In developing my English language skills:

• I engage with a wide range of texts and am developing an appreciation of the richness and breadth of Scotland’s literary and linguistic heritage

• I enjoy exploring and discussing word patterns and text structures.
