Reading, Literacy and Academic Study - Building your academic resilience

(0)
This lesson is designed for early in the academic year to support students new to sixth form to appreciate the value of academic reading. It coincides with various September dates such as Read a Book Day, International Literacy Day and E-Book Day. It comes with a preliminary quiz on Forms (link to duplicate in the Teaching Notes) and introduces students to what being a Sixth Form student involves, preparing them for further study and helping them to build a repertoire of reading to support later university applications. There are a range of opportunities for discussion and the opportunity to try out some wider reading sites if they have access to a device in the lesson. The plenary allows for students to feedback what they have gleaned and will take away with them. It could be worth sharing the presentation with both students and sixth form teachers to help with a unified approach. This is part of our Academic Resilience series, so please check out our other resources and bundle deals.
