Release Notes: 2nd October - New Grammar Activities

When a learner completes a lesson in the Grammar curriculum, that lesson isn't gone forever. The teaching videos from completed lessons can always be accessed through the Recapping & practice area, and practice sessions also live here, providing even more opportunities to master the knowledge learned in the lesson.

Practice sessions are shorter lessons, made up of 5 multi-modal learning activities to challenge learners further, including activities that the learner struggled with during the initial lesson. With each practice session, your learners will be rewarded with 5 points, motivating them to continuously recap their knowledge.

Continuous recapping and practice has a multitude of benefits for both teachers and learners;

• Provide more opportunities for independent writing and experimentation with conscious choices
• Encourage learner independence and metacognitive reflection on strengths and weaknesses
• Enable teachers to extend learning
• Further extend and develop student accuracy
• Ensure mastery of the knowledge learned is retained over time

We are committed to providing the best experience that we can for our learners and as part of that commitment we are continuously improving our platform and updating our learning offering.

Our recapping & practice area now contains 1,000 new activities that will challenge and stretch your learners to ensure the knowledge that they learn through our grammar curriculum is fully embedded into their long term memory. From mastering word classes and punctuation, to crafting diverse sentence types, exploring effect and correcting errors, Bedrock's new activities encourage learners to apply a wide range of skills. The new content has been designed to go beyond learning, targeting retained knowledge, emphasising understanding and the real-world application of grammar.

Through the new activities learners will make conscious choices while honing their written accuracy, fostering a level of exploration like never before. With each practice session, learners will be rewarded with 5 points, motivating them to continuously recap their knowledge.
