ATL Posters + Collection

29/9/2019

I made some more posters on Canva - these ones are for the different ATL clusters, with their descriptors. Even though their are ten clusters, the IB has grouped media literacy skills and information literacy skills together when they give a definition... (If I am wrong, let me know, and I'll separate them out into two posters). Canva is free and easy to use...imagine if everyone was making and sharing IB posters... (on that note, check out the cool posters shared here). All the icons are free from FlatIcon - super easy to use, my students love this site!
Link to posters here.

I'm working on a project to make AtL Skills more visible across my school, (but will first work with the teachers to narrow down the list of AtLs covered, as the one I inherited is too long, covering almost 250 AtL skills in a year...). I realised I have lots of different posters saved on my drive, or in various Pinterest Folders, covering everything from MLA 8 Citations, to Growth Mindset.

I decided to put them together into a spreadsheet, organised by AtL. This is just a start and I would love for other teachers to share posters to add to the spreadsheet. Link to the spreadsheet is here.

Here's some samples of some of the posters in the folder:

Thank you! This is similar to my goal this year - explicitly teaching the ATLs (PYP) through books (and characters) in an effort to support the development of these skills. The Teachers chose the ATLs for each unit of inquiry before the start of the year, and I focus on these when planning my lessons for each cohort.

Sounds excellent! book characters are a great way to make links with the learner profile too

It is so exciting to be with 'GURUS' such as you. I will certainly try CANVA.

Thanks! Try Canva on the browser, as the app is a little tricky

Dear Lenny,

I came across this excel resource list / post while searching for others who write about ATL. I am also an IB educator and am currently writing a series of blog posts connecting approaches to teaching with approaches to learning at the edtech company I am consulting for. I hope they will be useful to add your resource list! Let me know: blog.100mentors.com/author/pepy/

I look forward to connecting!

All best,
Pepy

Your ATL work is so helpful Lenny and your posters are gorgeous! I teach language acquisition, would these exist in other languages or how would you feel about me saving a copy and translating them for my subject needs?
