Beschreibung

Artificial intelligence (AI) is transforming the world around us and education is no exception. But how can AI help in the primary classroom, particularly with teaching reading, writing and comprehension? This practical guide demystifies AI for teachers, offering clear, accessible and practical strategies to enhance literacy teaching in a way that is both effective and engaging.

Written specifically for primary school teachers, this book explores how AI-powered tools can support children's literacy development. It provides step-by-step guidance on using AI to enrich reading activities, improve comprehension skills, inspire creative writing, make poetry analysis and writing easier, and make non-fiction research more engaging. The book is packed with real-world, tried and tested examples with easy-to-follow lesson ideas, and thoughtful discussion points to help teachers integrate AI into their teaching while maintaining the human connection that is central to learning.

This practical resource is for anyone looking for innovative ways to engage young learners with their reading and writing. It is particularly relevant for teachers and school leaders and offers hands-on support on how to use AI ethically and effectively in the classroom, whilst also suggesting ways to enhance learning and pupil engagement within an ever-evolving educational landscape.

Rezensionen / Stimmen

"As with any new innovation or teaching and learning tool, it is the fear of the unknown or the lack of an infrastructure to navigate the resource that inhibits its effective adoption. This new and groundbreaking publication is a timely and comprehensive guide on how to harness the power of AI to enhance the teaching and learning of literacy in primary classrooms."
Alison Wilcox, creator of Descriptosaurus.

"Wow...I never realised how much I could do with AI to enhance my teaching and save huge amounts of time. Reading and writing is about to be supercharged! Adam has carefully crafted a book of AI gold-dust to help enhance your teaching and revolutionise the way you plan, resource and deliver your lessons. This book is filled with a variety of simple, yet mind blowing ideas that AI can do that will save endless hours, while enhancing every lesson!"
Andrew Jennings, Vocabulary Ninja.
