Designing Purposeful Tasks in the Wider Curriculum
Are your foundation subjects falling flat with low-level tasks that don’t match your ambitious curriculum?
This practical course tackles a common problem: choosing the right tasks to build and test essential knowledge in non-core subjects. Too often lessons can lack meaningful practice activities and, in some cases, units can end abruptly without checking what pupils actually remember.
Through real examples you will learn to design practice tasks that help pupils retain lesson content and also create end-of-unit activities that genuinely demonstrate learning. No more weak worksheet endings or missed opportunities to consolidate knowledge!
Leave with a toolkit of effective task types and the confidence to choose activities that truly build essential knowledge in your non-core subjects.
Participants will be able to:
- Plan practice tasks that help pupils remember what they learned in each lesson
- Create end-of-unit tasks that show pupils have learned key knowledge.
