Event overview
Using a collaborative approach between a University and a Primary School to design a Primary Languages Curriculum
‘We get to read our favourite stories in new ways’
Collaboration – Creativity – Curriculum: using a collaborative approach between a University and a Primary School to design a Primary Languages Curriculum
We will present how the teaching of languages in Primary Schools can be transformed across the whole-school primary curriculum when teachers and researchers collaborate to make space for creativity and stories. In many primary school contexts, the teaching of languages is repetitive and highly formulaic and the researchers wanted to find novel ways to motivate teachers and children to learn languages.
