Media - Literacy Ideas and Links

Some resources which can you help you in your planning:
1) The Ministry’s Guide to Effective Literacy Instruction (volume 7) - it was written for Grades 4-6, but the sample lessons can be adapted for any level. Click
here to look at it.
2) There is also an e-workshop series with some excellent modules: http://www.eworkshop.on.ca/edu/core.cfm?p=modView.cfm&l=1&modid=32&c=3&navid=modView
3) In your schools, there should be a helpful resource with a purple cover called Media Studies (K-12) from the TDSB - it provides a good overview of the key concepts, as well as the triangle framework which can be used to help students deconstruct a text.
4) The Media Awareness Network website has lessons by grade: http://www.media-awareness.ca
5) A good source for public service announcements (PSAs) can be found at the Concerned Children's Advertisers website:http://cca-kids.ca
6) From my own personal media literacy guru at home: www.media-literacy.ca
