Reconstructing Reading: Multimodality
Download this toolkit, developed as a takeaway from the National Literacy Trust’s Reconstructing Reading conference, to help your team translate research evidence into high-impact classroom results.
How you can use this resource:
Use the 'Multimodality' research one-pager, which features a series of provocations designed to help leaders evaluate school routines for multimodal text access, student opportunities to demonstrate understanding through different modes, and staff confidence in using digital tools to reduce cognitive load.
Deploy the linked My Reading, My Choice resource to provide learners with a practical 'Reader Menu' that guides them through selecting specific tools to access information, organise their ideas, and show their understanding of a text.
Enable teachers to design routines for students to work through the same rigorous texts as their classmates using tailored supports, such as text-to-speech tools, visual glossaries, or graphic organisers, to ensure inclusive participation across all reading activities.
