Feedback from the original course:
A fantastic session, thank you. We try to link our English and history as we teach thematically so the sessions help in both areas. Brilliant
The ideas for short pieces of writing will be particularly useful across each year group. Thank you!
Thank you. Enjoyed everything and it was very informative! Great links for history and English

Online Courses for Autumn 2020
This half day course is based on the premise of putting history first whilst providing practical and easy to implement ideas for continuity and progression through the school in both non-fiction and poetry.
The reading element of the course will look at how texts are organised – text structure and organisation – before moving to cover how to write these texts effectively – spelling, punctuation and grammar – focusing upon key features of the genre and age related expectations in different year groups.
We will look at how to read and research, and organise and write texts to demonstrate understanding in history. There will also be creative ideas for publishing work with an emphasis on audience and purpose, Similar ideas will be covered on the sister course Reading and Writing in Geography: practical ideas for geography leaders in primary schools. This means that children will be able to become familiar with the techniques and concentrate upon applying their knowledge and understanding.
There will be a focus upon describing and communicating information about elements of historical study and concepts such as continuity and change; causes, consequences and connections; significant events and people; chronology and the evaluation of sources.
