Santoro, N. (2004). Using the four resources model across the curriculum. In A. Healy, & E. Honan (Eds.), //Text next: new resources for literacy learning// (pp. 51-67). Newtown, NSW: Primary English Teaching Association.

Santoro’s article explores the idea of literacy being more complex than just reading and writing. Santoro talks about how literacy practices are embedded in our everyday lives in the form of computer, social, multimodal and school literacies.

The article is focused on middle years students and their literacy learning needs as they move into subject specific literacies in high school. These practices are mapped against the Four Resources Model. The article gives an overview on how to include literacy in SOSE using the Four Resources Model. It explains how to support students in each of the roles of the Four Resources Model and then relates it to the SOSE example. /
