Harness the power of film to make a lasting impact on your pupils’ literacy skills with Teaching Literacy Through Film. 

 

Developed after six years of research between Into Film and its partners, Teaching Literacy Through Film is designed as a series of seven, short self-contained learning experiences. They introduce simple strategies to inspire your learners to improve their speaking and listening, comprehension and writing attainment. You can dive into the courses that match your current classroom needs or follow the entire learning journey with us.

 

Along the way, you’ll have the chance to complete fun literacy activities, get advice from Into Film experts and share your experiences with fellow educators. Each course also contains downloadable, curriculum-linked resources so you can share the power of film with your learners straight away.

 

Watch a quick, sneak preview of one of the exclusively made videos available in this course, for a bite-sized piece of learning you can apply in your classroom straight away.

 

By completing Teaching Literacy Through Film, you will be able to:

  • Analyse film as a text, using key frameworks to develop comprehension, speaking and listening skills
  • Inspire writing in a range of genres using film stills and short film highlights as stimuli
  • Develop prediction, discussion and description skills through film sound
  • Embed character analysis, inference and deduction skills through film
  • Deliver simple film activities to assess pupils’ understanding.

  

Into Film courses are only available for UK-based teachers.
