Summary:

Wouldn't it be great if teachers had the opportunity to produce their own videos and have them broadcast on Teachers TV? Well, that's what Action! Teacher Video is all about; and in this episode you can see a video created by Chris Mooney from Ellenbrook Primary School in Manchester called Literacy Through Art. This looks at a Creative Partnerships project to stimulate writing through art with visual artist Johnny Woodhams. Focusing on the topic of Ghana, the video shows Chris's Year 4 class engaged in creative activities stimulated by a visit from two Ghanaian women, and concluding with a pupil presentation at the Lowry Centre.Presenter Xanthe Steen is joined in the studio by Chris, education consultant Adrienne Jones and fellow teachers Tim Taylor and Emma Hamilton-Smith, to discuss the issues raised by the video. They also reflect on how Teacher Video could be used for assessment and CPD.See the resources and support materials page for links related to this programme.
