During literacy tuition, students are learning new words, how to pronounce them, how to spell them, what they mean and how to use them in context.
The words learnt during a learning session can be used to motivate writing, either in the form of constructing single sentences or writing a story. This reinforces learning and improves understanding of the words.
This session plan should be adapted according to the student’s ability and the resources available. The time schedule mentioned in the session plan is for a group learning session and may take some students more then one learning session to complete.
