RALLY (Reading and Literacy through Language Learning) is a three year project to be developed by Gladesmore Community School, London; Collège Irène Joliot-Curie, Argenteuil; and IES Azorin, Petrer, their staff and students. The objectives of the project are to develop teaching and learning strategies to promote reading for pleasure in home and taught languages, creative writing skills, oracy and presentation, as well as literacy skills such as prediction, clarifying, questioning and summarising. Each school intends to develop their students’ confidence in the production of personalised, extended and creative writing, and spontaneity and confidence in spoken language.
