Develop your learners’ literacy skills with this scaffolded writing support on nanomaterials

Nanomaterials are becoming more and more important in everyday life and in scientific research. In this activity, your learners will develop their skills in reading and writing about nanomaterials and the nanoscale.

Structure strips are a type of scaffolding that support learners to write independently. You can use them in lots of ways, to take an overview at the start of the topic, to activate prior knowledge or to summarise a set of objectives.
