Podcasting opportunities in the New Literacy Framework
The New Framework opens up many opportunities for children
to take responsibility for their own publications and for
broadcasting their creative ideas and information. Podcasting
is an ideal vehicle for these activities. The first four
strands of the new Literacy Framework
… for all of the year groups invite many activities
which will be well served by the 5Ps …preparing,
performing, producing, publishing and promoting podcasts.
Consideration of podcasting here will give children (and
teachers) a positive sense of audience and the potential
of raised awareness of the responsibilities and excitement
of personal publication.
For definitive information, check year group plans at the
Framework site at http://www.standards.dfes.gov.uk/primaryframeworks/literacy/ .

Year 6 Poetry - Unit 1
Select, organise, perform and publish some of the poems,
remembering electronic possibilities, for example Internet
posting, podcasting, alongside paper publication and wall
displays. If using ICT, poems, spoken and/or written, could
be linked with their stimulus digital images to form a multimodal
presentation.
Year 6 Narrative – Unit
Polish and 'publish' the story outcomes (remembering electronic
possibilities such as Internet posting, podcasting, alongside
paper publication and wall displays)
Year 6 Narrative - Unit 3
Explore these through a variety of communication scenarios,
for example live role-play improvisation, movement or dance,
simulated conversation with a partner in partnership class
through email or instant messaging, creating a script and
podcasting it for other children for comment.
Year 6 Narrative - Unit 2
Publish the story outcomes (remembering electronic possibilities
such as Internet posting, podcasting, alongside paper publication
and wall displays).
Year 6 Non-fiction - Unit 2
Begin to explore radio news programmes in more depth. (As
well as through conventional broadcast, these can now be
accessed as streaming media from various news organisations'
websites or via podcast services).
Year 6 Poetry - Unit 2
Select, organise, perform and publish some of the poems
or sequences of poems, remembering electronic possibilities;
for example Internet posting, podcasting, alongside paper
publication and wall displays. If using ICT, poems (spoken
and/or written) could be linked with their stimulus digital
images to form a multimodal presentation.
Year 5 Poetry - Unit 3
Their own poems are then rehearsed, performed, shared,
evaluated and improved. A simple digital video camera, which
itself can be operated by children, provides an excellent
way of recording and reviewing children's own live performances,
and ICT media, such as pod casting, can provide a wider audience
for such performances.
