Toolkit

F.A.I.L


Resources:

Click here for PowerPoint with all the info!

What to do:

I have used this and implemented it into four key reading skills for my classes. 

The reading skills are very simple and cover the basics/foundations of reading. 

F = FIND AND RETRIEVE the appropriate information

A = ANALYSE key parts of the quote/phrases (INFERENCE)

I = Identify different LANGUAGE, STRUCTURE and PUNCTUATION and Identify and explain the CONNOTATIONS AND JUSTIFICATION

L = LINK TOGETHER TO MAKE DETAILED SYNTHESIS of information and inferences.



Variations:

Students could teach their findings back to the class?
Could be implemented into science experiments. E.g. ‘Find and Retrieve the correct equipment’, ‘Analyse your prediction’ etc.
Maths – Students ‘find’ the correct answer, ‘Analyse’ how they got that answer/mistakes they made along the way etc.
