On-demand webinars

In this webinar, Katy showcases how she used Clicker’s ready-made resources in her classroom to make the primary curriculum more accessible and engaging for her learners. 

This free 30-minute webinar covers:

• Introducing a topic or lesson using ready-made Clicker Books and how these can be quickly edited to suit your learners’ needs.
  
• Using Talk Sets to develop speaking and listening skills alongside building up new vocabulary.
  
• A selection of ready-to-go writing grids available through LearningGrids, with varying levels of support.

Katy’s session focuses on Science topics as an example, but you can apply the ideas shared here across the primary curriculum, with thousands of subject-specific Clicker resources available for you to choose from!

Katie is joined by our Curriculum Specialist Jo Gibbins to explore how the multi-sensory support that Clicker offers, along with its ready-made resources, empowers EAL learners to access lesson content alongside their peers and rapidly develop their English language skills. They discuss:

• How Clicker supports English Language Learners – through speech feedback for modelling, picture support for visual reinforcement, and activities to develop early language skills.
• Our bank of free subject-specific resources that make the primary curriculum more accessible for EAL learners.
• Focused activities for new arrivals and for developing English language, including our ‘New to English’ resources to help children build essential first vocabulary and early sentence structure skills.
• Additional resources to support the mental wellbeing and emotional expression of EAL children.

Andrew is joined by Siân Rice, an experienced EYFS teacher, to show you how Clicker can be used to support and engage younger learners. They will explore:

• How Clicker can be used to help children understand and actively participate in each stage of the writing process.
• The range of ready-made Clicker resources available to Early Years teachers, including talking books, matching sets, sentence sets and ‘tell the story’ activities.
• Ways of using Clicker together as a class, in small groups, or to provide personalised support to children with additional needs.

Our Training Coordinator Gemma Dean shares ready-made LearningGrids resources that will help you to ensure early learners are secure in their knowledge of letters and sounds:

• Use decodable stories to help children progress incrementally through an increasing range of graphemes and phoneme.
• Take a look at our Talk and Matching sets, which give children lots of opportunities to practise blending and segmenting.
• Access ‘Read it Yourself’ Clicker Books specifically designed to encourage developing readers to decode and read text for themselves.
