Year 10 Sport Communications (10SCO)

10SCO
Course Description

Teacher in Charge: Miss K. McKeown.

This course offers the study of English through the lens of sport.

Students will cover a wide range of text-based units within which they will be given many opportunities to develop a range of literacy skills. It is intended that students will study texts and learn skills using an inquiry-based approach in order to most effectively encourage holistic learning and to allow students to reflect on and respond to issues in their wider world.

This year we will use a combination of paper and digital devices across the Year 10 cohort.  Students will be offered opportunities to enrich and extend their learning through the careful use of both mediums.  All classes will have access to an online programme called Education Perfect which offers engaging forays into the worlds of Language, Literature and Comprehension.

 Year 10 topics include an integrated cross-curricular unit as well as the study of literature, film, and presentation skills.
