Espresso Go! Content Overview
Espresso Learning Paths have been designed to provide self-contained programmes with structured activities.
Each Learning Path follows the same structure: a statement about learning intentions is followed by an introductory warm-up activity, a main activity, a chance to review learning and finally tasks which offer opportunities to extend the learning and the use of skills. The activities are designed to be shared but will also be suitable for work away from the classroom.
- 22 Learning Paths designed to help with SATs preparation
- 28 Learning Paths that set up extended projects - for example projects on local study, environmental investigations, making digital video together with paths that focus on off-site learning e.g. visits to museums and art galleries.
- 20 Learning Paths that are linked to QCA units for years 5 and 6 – for example French, PSHE moving on, History and paths that set up (Philosophy for Children) P4C sessions.
