Prepare a written report to critique literacy practices and literacy resources for their potential for teaching to be creative and adventurous.

This report will be in the form of a useful teacher resource full of clearly written activities for creative literacy teaching which will ensure high levels of student engagement.

Using unit topics as the basis for each, craft eight activities for your future literacy classroom. Choose a target year group for the booklet, and indicate one or more ACARA links for each activity. You must critique the choices you have made (what makes them creative and supportive of literacy development) and support your critique with references from readings and other findings. Your report will include literacy practices and activities which have the potential for literacy teaching to be creative and adventurous. You must research, find and cover examples from a range of the topics from this unit. You will use your creativity in developing the activities for this assignment. You may choose to target one theme or topic across all eight activities, but this is optional.

You are expected to:

• create a useful, creative and helpful “booklet” style resource for teachers

• target your booklet at one year group, relevant to the course you are enrolled in (ECE, Primary or Secondary)

• include creative and detailed literacy based activities

• critique these activities, illustrating why they are creative and support literacy

• use a range of scholarly texts to support your evaluation of each activity

• cover a range of unit topics.
